Final Section Of East Coast Boardwalk In North Point Now Open!
What To Do & How To Get There
The much-anticipated Eastern Section of the East Coast Boardwalk in North Point is now officially open, completing a stunning 13-kilometer-long harbourfront promenade stretching from Kennedy Town to Shau Kei Wan. This seamless coastal pathway is perfect for family outings, jogging, cycling, and leisurely strolls, creating a vibrant new space for Hong Kong Island residents and visitors alike.
The newly opened section spans 2.2 kilometers under the Island Eastern Corridor and is designed with families and outdoor enthusiasts in mind. Just like its Western counterpart, this pet-friendly pathway is open 24/7 (except for the experiential glass observatory deck, which operates from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.).
Highlights of the Eastern Section include:
- Glass Observatory Deck: Enjoy breathtaking views of Victoria Harbour right beneath your feet!
- Pet-Friendly Space: A dedicated area near Tin Chiu Street where you and your furry friends can relax before exploring.
- Art Installations: Stunning works by local artists and marine-inspired murals add a touch of creativity to your walk.
- Multi-Purpose Open Spaces: Perfect for exhibitions, community activities, and family fun.
- Small Plaza & Widened Footpaths: Improved accessibility and cozy gathering spots near Quarry Bay.
This family-friendly boardwalk offers an ideal shared space for walking, jogging, scootering, or simply soaking in the harbor views. With five accessible entry points—two near North Point MTR Station and three near Quarry Bay MTR Station—you’ll have no trouble finding your way to this urban oasis.
Grab your scooters or bikes, leash up your pets, and head out to explore this incredible new addition to Hong Kong’s harborfront.
