The secret spot of the sea cable car everyone’s been asking about is right here! Hong Kong Ocean Park, with its unique mountain and sea cable car experience, is a must-visit summer destination! Whether it’s the stunning sea views or immersive fun, it captivates you at first sight~
🌊 Stunning Cable Car Experience
As the cable car slowly ascends, below you is the shimmering Pacific Ocean, and in the distance, scattered islands dot the sea like matcha cakes. You can see the superyachts of the wealthy and hillside villas in full view. On clear days, you can enjoy the sunset over the sea, capturing the seamless blend of sea and sky in every frame, each shot with a Korean drama filter effect, instantly boosting the healing vibe!
🚆 Route Planning Suggestions
The park is divided into two main areas: lower mountain and upper mountain. It’s recommended to take the Ocean Express train uphill (for a sci-fi shuttle experience) and ride the cable car downhill (to focus on sightseeing).
• Lower Mountain Area: Start with the Giant Panda Adventure and Asian Animal World, then visit the “Ocean Wonders” aquarium to see whale sharks swimming. Taking photos in front of the giant glass wall is super impressive!
• Upper Mountain Area: Check in at the Polar Adventure (adorable penguins and polar bears), challenge the roller coaster, then head straight to the cable car station to start your mountain and sea journey~
📸 Hidden Photo Spots
• Perfect cable car mid-route view: At halfway up the mountain, capture the “Green Island + Blue Sea + City Skyline” all in one frame, bursting with Italian romantic vibes!
• Retro Hong Kong Old Street: After descending, don’t miss the nostalgic street filled with neon signs. Snap casual shots of ice rooms and theater scenes for a Wong Kar-wai movie feel.
🍴 Food and Surroundings
• Recommended inside the park: egg waffles and curry fish balls at “Hong Kong Old Street,” or dine at the “Seaside Restaurant” while enjoying the sea view.
• After leaving the park, walk to The Southside mall to taste international cuisines; if you have more time, head to Wong Chuk Hang to visit art exhibitions and graffiti walls, soaking in the hipster atmosphere.
📍 Practical Information
• Address: Ocean Park Road, Wong Chuk Hang, Southern District, Hong Kong Island
• Transportation: MTR South Island Line, Ocean Park Station, Exit B direct access
• Tickets: About HK$498 for adults (discounts available online), ticket includes cable car and Ocean Express train experience
✨ Tips
• It’s best to visit on weekdays to avoid crowds; taking the cable car after 3 PM lets you catch the sunset.
• Wear non-slip shoes as some spots require climbing; bring sunscreen as UV rays are strong by the sea.
