翠華船務 A Lifeline Across the Waters

Do you remember traveling on that old ferry when you were a child? Sure, there are fancier, faster modes of transport now, but a sense of adventure and romance still surrounds the humble vessel that connects us across bodies of water. Do you remember?

Do you remember watching the froth and foam form at the side as it plowed through the river? The gentle rocking motion would lull you into a sense of calm, and the rhythmic sound of the propeller would provide a relaxing soundtrack to your journey.

And do you remember the thrill of standing at the bow, feeling the wind in your hair and the sun on your face?
As a child, the journey was part of the holiday, a prelude to adventure; it was a voyage of discovery.
For generations of Hongkongers, that ferry was the 翠華船務 , which has been plying the waters around Hong Kong for over 50 years. The company began as a small family business, operating a single ferry between Central and North Point. But over the years, it has grown into one of the largest ferry operators in the city, with a fleet of over 30 vessels that serve over 20 destinations, from Tsim Sha Tsui, to the outlying islands of Cheung Chau and Lamma.
翠華船務 has witnessed many changes over the years, but one thing that has remained constant is its commitment to providing safe and reliable services to the people of Hong Kong. The company has also been a strong supporter of the local community, sponsoring a number of events and initiatives.
Today, 翠華船務 is more than just a ferry operator. For the people of Hong Kong, it is a symbol of the city's heritage and culture.
If you haven't done so already, I recommend you take a trip on one of the 翠華船務 ferries, even if it's just a short hop across the harbor. You won't regret it. As you stand there at the bow, looking out over the water, you will feel yourself transported back to a simpler time, a time when the journey by ferry was the most exciting part of any journey. And if you are lucky, you might just see some of the old ferries that once plied these waters.
They are a reminder of a time when life was slower and simpler, a time when the ferry was the hub of the community.
