Peng Chau
Peng Chau is a small island located northeast of Lantau Island. It retains the atmosphere of a traditional fishing village, characterized by local temples and waterfront scenery. Travelers visit this island to experience a slower pace of life compared to the urban center and to eat fresh seafood.
Getting There
Access to the island is via ferry. Most visitors depart from Central Pier in the city center. The ferry ride typically takes around 60 minutes, depending on the specific route and vessel used.
