About
About Tai O
Tai O's boats are long by Hong Kong standards. Tuen Mun is 53 minutes away with 6 to 7 sailings a week; Tung Chung takes 41 minutes with 3, on a weekend calendar.
Sailings run from 08:00 to 19:00. Two day patterns cover the Tuen Mun route — a daily calendar and a weekend one.
Tai O is a fishing village on the western tip of Lantau, built on stilts over tidal creeks, where the Tanka community has lived on the water for generations. Fortune Ferry works the routes. Most visitors arrive by bus over the mountain; the boat is the older way in, and at nearly an hour from Tuen Mun it is also the slower one.
