Departing from Dongguan! One-Day Tour Guide to Hong Kong Ocean Park

📍 Address: 180 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Southern District, Hong Kong Island 🎫 Tickets: Standard 1-day ticket is about HKD 498 (adult), it is recommended to purchase in advance on the official website or other platforms. 🚌 Transportation from Dongguan ✅ Most recommended route: High-speed rail + MTR 1️⃣ Dongguan Humen → West Kowloon, about 40-50 minutes. I departed from Humen, and my friend from Shenzhen Futian; we could buy tickets for the same train, super convenient. 2️⃣ Immigration: After arrival, go through immigration directly. If you have children, you need to use the manual channel, which is slower and requires queuing. 3️⃣ Hong Kong MTR: After immigration, take the MTR 🚇 from Austin Station (Tuen Ma Line) → Hung Hom Station → transfer to South Island Line at Admiralty Station → Ocean Park Station Exit B to reach the park entrance. The subway ride takes about 25 minutes. 🎢 Recommended park routes 🌊 Waterfront Park (at the foot of the mountain) ⛰️ Summit Park (on the mountain) Connected by the cable car or Ocean Express train. ✅ Recommended itinerary Ocean Park entrance ➤ Ocean Theatre ➤ Giant Panda Adventure ➤ Old Hong Kong Street ➤ Cable Car ➤ Shark Mystique ➤ Ferris Wheel ➤ Dolphin Show ➤ Rainforest Adventure ➤ Thrill Mountain ➤ Polar Adventure ➤ Ocean Express down the mountain ➤ Asian Animal Zone 📸 Personal check-in experience 🚠 Cable Car view: A must-ride! As the cabin slowly ascends, below are the blue sea and mountains of Repulse Bay and South Island. On a clear day, it’s very photogenic. It’s recommended to queue early; we queued about half an hour in the morning. In the afternoon, when going down and leaving the park, we rode again with no queue 😊 no one at that time. 🦈 Shark Mystique: The shark aquarium spirals downward, with the third level at the bottom. In front of the giant viewing screen, various sharks 🦈 and ghost fish glide like kites underwater. On the right, there are many beautiful corals 🪸. Don’t miss it! 🎡 Ferris Wheel: If you’re not afraid of heights, you can ride it. It’s my first time on a Ferris wheel without glass windows, the view is great, the breeze feels wonderful, and I heard it’s even more beautiful at sunset. We queued nearly 40 minutes that day. Ocean Tower: Slowly rotates 360 degrees, rising to 72 meters high, offering a panoramic view of the entire park and coastline. 🐬 Ocean Theatre: The venue connects with the sea, sitting in the audience area to enjoy the scenery is fantastic! 💡 Super practical tips 🍎 Download the official app: You can check the map, queue times, show schedules, and book passes in real-time, saving a lot of time. 🔍 Documents and network: Make sure to check the validity of your Hong Kong and Macau travel permit and endorsement; purchase a Hong Kong mobile data package in advance. 🎒 Gear: Dress beautifully (great for photos). If you have many items, there is luggage storage and stroller rental on the right side of the entrance. 💰 Payment: Most shops and restaurants in the park support mobile payments (Alipay/WeChat), but it’s convenient to carry some HKD cash for small stalls or deposits (stroller rental requires a deposit). Welcome everyone to add more convenient and fun tips.
