Dos principales terminales de transbordadores operan los servicios de cruce de frontera entre Hong Kong y China:
- Terminal de transbordadores de Macao-Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
- Terminal de transbordadores de China-Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon
y a ambas terminales de transbordadores se puede llegar por MTR y los servicios de buses locales.
Notwithstanding their names, both terminals provide extensive networks of ferry services to Macau and various cities in Guangdong Province. However services from China Ferry Terminal are more frequent and the network towards China is more extensive than its counterpart, while only Macau Ferry Terminal provides a 24 hours ferry service to Macau. Some ferry routes, from/to either Macau or Shenzhen, terminate at Hong Kong International Airport. These are only available at the Skypier, accessible from the departure hall of the airport (as for flight transfers).
También hay servicios de crucero en Hong Kong. La terminal de cruceros de Hong Kong (la Terminal Ocean) está ubicada en Tsim Sha Tsui en la península de Kowloon.
