If travelers take the earlier ferries, travelers can still see other scenery.

If travelers miss the 1800 ferry, travelers need to take other transportations (taxi, bus) to leave Tai O as the 1800 ferry is actually the last ferry!

After checking the ferry schedule, please pay attention to the third tip, try to dodge the crowds.

A lot of locals take the same ferry to commute or for fun, especially on Saturday, Sunday and public holidays.

A lot of people line up to wait for the Tai O to Tung Chung ferry.

Please try to take the sunset ferry on the weekdays, instead of holidays.

It is the best to wait for the ferry at the Tai O Promenade Landing Steps 20-30 mins before the ferry departure time.

If travelers just line up to wait for the ferry 5-10 mins before 1800, mostly travelers cannot get a good position for the good view in the ferry boat.

So travelers should read the tip four, take a seat on the upper deck.

Travelers can only take the photos or videos for the good view on the upper deck.

On lower deck, travelers can only see the view through the stained windows due to the sea water and wave!

As travelers need to get the seats on the upper deck, travelers need to pay attention to tip five, beware of the cold and windy weather.

It is very good to take the sunset ferry in summer and autumn (May to November).

The refreshing breeze just becomes the natural AC for the passengers on the uncovered upper deck.

However, in the wintertime, the strong and cold wind can make the uncovered upper deck to be the refrigerator!

For example, it won’t be easy for travelers to take the ferry today (5 Jan 2021), which is called “Minor Cold”, the 23rd solar term in the Lunar calendar.
