Star Ferry Pier: A Green-and-White Harbour Crossing

Star Ferry Pier is listed under Yau Tsim Mong in the 18 Districts spot guide. The green-and-white Star Ferries have crossed between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon for over a century. You can board at Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier (Salisbury Road Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier), Central Pier (Central Pier 7) or Wan Chai Ferry Pier (Convention Avenue Wan Chai Ferry Pier), taking in views of both sides of Victoria Harbour. It is also described as one of the “50 places to visit in a lifetime”. For trip planning, the Transport Department’s HKeMobility website or app can be used, entering “Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Pier” as the destination. Check the latest announcements on opening arrangements before you go.

Editor’s noteFor a harbour view by boat, Star Ferry Pier is a straightforward pick; confirm current opening arrangements with official announcements.
