Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier

Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier, ferry pier in Hong Kong

Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier is a twin-pier terminal of Streamline Moderne design on reclaimed land at Kowloon Point, built of wood pilings and painted white with green trim. Its two bi-level piers serve the Star Ferry crossings to Central and Wan Chai, with upper-deck boarding costing more than the lower deck. A covered walkway, enclosed waiting areas and ramps run along the structure, and a bus terminus sits at the foot of Salisbury Road.

A Persian Zoroastrian, Mithaiwala, founded the Kowloon Ferry Company in 1880 with five coal-fired single-deck boats charging five cents for the 40-minute crossing to Central. The first pier at this site opened in 1906 but was wrecked by a typhoon that September; a replacement followed in 1914. The present twin-piered terminal, built of wood pilings in Streamline Moderne style, was completed in 1957.

Since the 2018 closure of Sai Yeung Choi Street pedestrian zone in Mong Kok, street performers moved to the area around the pier; reporters measured sound levels above 90 decibels, and a district councillor received over ten complaints about noise and obstruction in the first week. From November 2022 police posted notices banning musical instruments there.

The pier has multiple waiting areas and ticket counters organized by destination, making navigation straightforward. Visitors should arrive early, especially during peak times, to avoid long queues and allow time for boarding.

The pier's two-level layout reflects a fare system from its 1950s design: boarding on the upper deck costs more than the lower deck. The structure stands on wooden pilings, and unlike its counterpart at Edinburgh Place, it has no clock tower of its own.
