Hong Kong – Ocean Park

Ocean Park Hong Kong is the most famous theme park in Hong Kong. This place was opened since January 1977. The number of visitors is higher than Hong Kong Disneyland. It’s located in the Southern District of Hong Kong Island. Public can reach there by taxi or CityBus. The main mascot is sea lion named Whiskers (or known as Wai Wai in Chinese). There are so many side activities you can do in here, such as dining and shopping.

The Park opens at 10am and close at 6pm. The admission rates is HK$208 for adult and HK$103 for child.

I think it is enough with my short brief about Ocean Park. My conclusion, this is one of the places you must visit when you had a trip to Hong Kong. Have fun!

Welcome to Ocean Park Hong Kong!

Ocean Park
Raging River. Woah, this place reminds me about ‘Roller Coaster Tycoon’ game.

Do you want to feel the power of G-force when losing altitudes in high speed but with less risk? The Abyss Turbo Drop is the best solution for you. You can feel the thrill of free fall from 185 feet.

Ocean Park
The Dragon. This is the best roller coaster in Hong Kong. The track length is about 842 meter.

Raging River Squid. The ‘sotong bakar’ is super nice and tasty. The price is not that expensive.

Ocean Park
The Hong Kong Jockey Club Giant Panda Habitat. There are about 4 pandas over here. All the Giant Pandas are from China.

The Panda look so cute. This panda age less than 5 years old.

Ocean Park
The Cable Cars is the main transport to connect from the Lowlands to the Headlands.

There are many constructions to upgrade the theme park still going on.

The mountain separates the Lowlands and Headlands.

This is the bus stop at Cental Ferry Piers to Ocean Park. The route code is ‘629’ by CityBus. Time: 0935, 0955, 1015, 1035, 1055 (last bus). The rate is $10.60 for adult. Don’t forget to bring your Octopus Card.

I miss the last bus. So, I took taxi to Ocean Park.

March 23, 2009 @ 12:16 pm, by tolanic

@johny_ong: Yeap. They are still upgrading their theme park.
March 23, 2009 @ 12:16 pm, by tolanic

@Fumoffu: When you want to go? Hehehe, don’t forget to bring me go there. =)
March 23, 2009 @ 12:19 pm, by tolanic

@panda: Hahaha, at first I also thought like that. Because from outside, that place look very boring and abit zoo. Actually not, this theme park is much better than Sentosa and Genting.

omg! i wanna ride those roller coasters!

with that much roller coasters and other rides, of course the visitors are more than HK disneyland!

HK disneyland sucks. the only thing i enjoy at there is that 3D theater thingy.

can sunway lagoon beat this theme park?
March 24, 2009 @ 9:13 pm, by HeHeHunter

March 25, 2009 @ 12:54 am, by panda aka racoon

March 25, 2009 @ 1:54 am, by irvine

March 25, 2009 @ 9:55 am, by KY

looks like a pretty fun place, i’ve heard of this since something like 20+ years ago!
March 25, 2009 @ 8:59 pm, by r.p

been there and played all the rides … nice stuff..should try this instead of DisneyLand.
March 26, 2009 @ 10:38 pm, by claire

reading this post reminded me of my HK trip again .. when my kids went for this raging river, they came out all wet.. haha.. but the weather shield jacket helped a lot! thank goodness..
March 29, 2009 @ 2:04 am, by wYke

May I know what camera u used and which lense. Thanks
March 29, 2009 @ 3:47 pm, by tolanic

@Hello sirei/rei: Beside HK Disneyland, you have been to Ocean Park also? About the 3D theater, I think Sentosa Singapore also have. They call it as 4D. Hmm, I don’t think Sunway theme park can beat Ocean Park, because the space in Sunway is very limited.
March 29, 2009 @ 3:49 pm, by tolanic

@Hehehunter: Around RM97 for adult. =)
March 29, 2009 @ 3:53 pm, by tolanic

@panda aka raccoon: Theme park in Genting is super crowded and wasting a lot of times just to wait for the turn.
March 29, 2009 @ 4:23 pm, by tolanic

@irvine: Yeah, you should go there.LOL
March 29, 2009 @ 4:24 pm, by tolanic

@KY: You heard about this from where? TVB? Hehehe
March 29, 2009 @ 4:28 pm, by tolanic

@r.p.: You have tried Disneyland? From the reviews, many people prefer Ocean Park including me. =)
March 29, 2009 @ 4:31 pm, by tolanic

@claire: Ohh, you got kids already. Hehe, ya ya, my pants and my hairs all wet. Luckily my shirt not really that wet since I was wearing a jacket.
March 29, 2009 @ 4:38 pm, by tolanic

@wYke: I was using Fujifilm S7000 (stock lens) and Olympus FE280.
March 31, 2009 @ 4:33 pm, by sirei/rei

nah, i have not been Ocean Park.
but i will if i’m going to HK this year.

about the 4d theater at Sentosa, is it nice?
April 4, 2009 @ 9:55 pm, by tolanic

@sirei/rei: 4D theatre in Sentosa at least much better than Motion Monster in Genting. Yeah, it is nice. =)
April 22, 2009 @ 9:51 am, by Garnet

Wow, glad I stumbled upon this blog entry of yours. My family and I are going to HK in June. I think this is a better alternative to Disneyland.

wah, kami juga berencana ke hk, so pasti akan kesini. Saya mau tanya, apakah harga tiket masuk, sudah termasuk harga untuk enjoy permainannya? atau masih harus bayar untuk setiap permainan? kalau iya, kira kira berapa per jenisnya? thanks ya
September 9, 2009 @ 10:17 pm, by tolanic

@evi: Hello there. Ticket masuk untuk dewasa adalah HK$208 dan HK$103 pula untuk kanak-kanak. Harga itu sudah termasuk kesemua permainannya. Kamu tidak perlu bayar untuk setiap permainan. Just bayar ticket masuk sahaja =)
