Port Overview

Hong Kong is a premier Asian cruise hub and gateway to Southern China. It offers two world-class cruise facilities: the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern terminal built on the site of the former Kai Tak Airport runway, and the Ocean Terminal, a city-center facility in the bustling Tsim Sha Tsui district. Both terminals welcome international cruise lines including Royal Caribbean, MSC, Celebrity, Princess, Cunard, and luxury brands such as Silversea and Regent Seven Seas.

Hong Kong’s location and transport infrastructure make it a strategic embarkation and turnaround port for Asian itineraries. The Kai Tak Cruise Terminal is designed for large ships, while Ocean Terminal’s prime location allows passengers to step directly into Hong Kong’s shopping and cultural district.
