The Star Ferry is a well-known symbol of Hong Kong. These venerable green and white workhorses have been ferrying passengers across the harbor for decades. It is a 10-minute ride from Central to Tsim Sha Tsui at the tip of the Kowloon peninsula. It remains one of the best transportation bargains in the world, not to mention the most enjoyable way to view the Hong Kong skyline.

Although the best-known route for the Star Ferry is Central to Tsim Sha Tsui, there is also a Star Ferry service from Wan Chai to Tsim Sha Tsui, plus ferries from Central and Wan Chai to Hung Hom.
