Ma Wan Ferry Terminal

Many people living on Park Island take the ferry to work on Hong Kong Island. Its especially nice for people who work directly in Central, but also pretty good for anyone who works on Hong Kong Island.

The photo below is of the Ferry Terminal on Park Island.

Ferries dock on both sides, and run very regularly. Its a really nice feeling to leave HK Island behind after a day working in the city, and then come back to a place that is peaceful, with clean air, a nice breeze, trees and a beach. It really does feel like you are arriving at a holiday resort, each day! Almost every resident on Park Island says the same thing. Its a great feeling to arrive home!

Some people grab a beer at the HK side and enjoy unwinding on the way home. Others stop off the the 7-11 on Park Island when they arrive, and have a beer or two at the tables outside with other residents.

The ferry is HKD $17 per trip for HK residents, which to me is a very reasonable price to pay for the benefits that Park Island has to offer. And with the ferry there is never the worry that you have with trying to catch a taxi or mini-bus in the mornings on HK side. You know the ferry always arrives on time, and you are always assured of getting a nice seat.
