About
About Peng Chau Kaito
Peng Chau Kaito runs two short links out of Discovery Bay on Lantau, and the interesting thing about them is that they do not run on the same days. One is an everyday service; the other only exists at weekends.
Peng Chau every day, Mui Wo only at weekends
Discovery Bay to Peng Chau is 15 minutes, with nine departures out and eight back, running through the week. Discovery Bay to Mui Wo is 20 minutes, nine departures each way — and every one of them falls on a Saturday or a Sunday. Midweek that connection is simply not there.
Which changes what Discovery Bay is connected to
On a Tuesday, Discovery Bay’s kaito reaches Peng Chau and nothing else. On a Saturday it also reaches Mui Wo, and through Mui Wo the rest of Lantau — the buses to Tung Chung, Ngong Ping and the south coast beaches. The island’s effective size changes with the day of the week, which is a real planning constraint rather than a curiosity.
Hours differ too, not just days
The Peng Chau link works daytime hours, 08:00 to 15:50 outbound and 10:15 to 17:10 back. The weekend Mui Wo link runs much longer: 07:15 to 20:05 from Discovery Bay and 07:45 to 20:30 returning. So the service that runs on fewer days runs across more of the day when it does.
A kaito is a licence, not a boat size
Peng Chau Kaito Ltd appears in the Hong Kong Transport Department’s list of operators running licensed services. Kaito describes the licence category — approved by the Commissioner for Transport under the Ferry Services Ordinance for services to remote coastal settlements — rather than the type of vessel. The same legal framework covers everything from a launch to a small ferry.
No public timetable of its own
This operator publishes no website, so the schedule here comes from the consolidated government service data rather than from the company. For a small licensed operator that can adjust individual departures, that is worth knowing: confirm at the pier or through the Transport Department’s service listings before relying on a specific sailing, particularly the weekend-only Mui Wo runs.
