One of our favourite family activities in Hong Kong is sailing on the iconic Aqua Luna. A very gentle cruise, vibrant red sails, and stunning harbour views make it magical for little ones (and parents too!). Best part? Kids under 4 ride free—so it’s the perfect outing for families with toddlers.
The Aqua Luna is one of Hong Kong’s most iconic experiences—a ride on a traditional red-sailed Chinese junk boat across Victoria Harbour. https://aqualuna.com.hk/
Here are some useful things to know before you go:
🌊 What Makes It Special
- Authentic craftsmanship: Aqua Luna is one of the last hand-crafted junks in Hong Kong, built using traditional methods by an 80-year-old craftsman. It’s named after the pirate Cheung Po Tsai, adding a touch of history to the ride.
- Unmatched views: You’ll get panoramic views of Hong Kong’s skyline, especially stunning at sunset or during the nightly Symphony of Lights show.
- Atmosphere: The boat has both open-air decks and a cozy cabin, with cocktails and snacks available onboard.
💡 Practical Tips
- Duration: Most cruises last 45–90 minutes.
- Booking: Tickets can sell out, especially for sunset slots—book in advance.
- Meeting point: Plan your arrival 10 mins before at the designated pier (usually Tsim Sha Tsui or Central).
- Best time to go: Sunset cruises are the most popular, but daytime rides give clearer views of the skyline and mountains.
