You will need to fill out an Arrival Card when entering Macau, and again a Hong Kong Arrival card upon your return. A Macau Visa is not required for most visitors. In cases where a visa is required, it can be obtained upon arrival at the immigration checkpoint, with the exception of passport holders from the following countries: Bangladesh, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Vietnam. MONEY Macau has its own currency, the Pataca. The exchange rate to the HK dollar is slightly lower, one Macanese Pataca equals 0.97 Hong Kong Dollars at the time of this writing. There are ATM's at the ferry stations, casinos, etc. if you wish to exchange money for small purchases, taxis, meals, etc. although most everybody will accept Hong Kong dollars (since it is on their favour), any change you receive back will be in Patacas. TRANSPORTATION The journey from Hong Kong to Macau takes around one hour. Ferry Terminals in Hong Kong Hong Kong has three major terminals that service Macau-bound routes: Hong Kong-Macau Ferry Terminal in Shun Tak Centre located on Hong Kong Island, the China Ferry Terminal located in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon and Tuen Mun Ferry Terminal in New Territories. Tourists can find quite several jetfoils, catamarans and ferries available, run by TurboJET and Cotai Water Jet. Both operators run regular services during the day while limited overnight service is offered at the ferry terminal in Sheung Wan.

At one end of the bay stood a ramshackle cluster of old British military buildings and an abandoned pearl farm, now covered in vines that were reclaiming the land, while through the mouth of the bay I could see a few high- prowed fishing boats working the South China Sea. I felt drunk with the thrill of new discovery, even though we were in our home waters. I was surprised that I’d never seen this gem of a spot before, and it made me wonder what else I’d find. Hong Kong has been my home for nearly 15 years, during which I’ve hiked from its lush valleys to the tops of its mountain peaks and paddled miles of its rocky shoreline in a sea kayak. I pride myself in having seen Lui/EyeEm/Getty Siu Kwan many of the far-flung corners of this territory.
