About
About Fo Tau Fan Chau (The Dawn Island Pier)
Two operators appear on the same 09:00 sailing from Sai Kung, and only one of them runs on Sundays. The Transport Department's entries cover Monday to Saturday; Just Use Wheels is listed every day of the week, which makes Sunday a single-operator day here.
The crossing takes an hour in each direction. Departures from the island are at 10:00 and 15:30, arrivals from Sai Kung at 09:00 and 14:00 — two round trips a day, and no evening service.
Fo Tau Fan Chau lies in the waters off Sai Kung, on the far side of a peninsula that holds most of Hong Kong's country parks and almost none of its population. An hour of sailing for an island a short distance from the pier is a fair measure of how indented that coast is: the boat has to work its way round headlands that a straight line would ignore.
