From Hong Kong, ferries take approximately one hour, while services from Shenzhen's Shekou Port take around 70 minutes. The terminal connects seamlessly to Macau's free shuttle bus network and public transportation system, making it simple to reach hotels and attractions.

Parking facilities are available nearby for those arriving with their own vehicles, though public transport is typically more convenient given Macau's compact size.

When to Experience Macau at Its Finest

October to December offers the most pleasant weather in Macau, with comfortable temperatures, low humidity, and minimal rainfall, perfect for exploring the historic streets and outdoor attractions. Spring (March to May) provides another excellent window with mild temperatures, though occasional light rain showers may occur. Summer months (June to September) bring hot, humid conditions and the possibility of typhoons, which might affect ferry schedules. Winter (January to February) sees cooler temperatures but remains relatively mild compared to northern regions. The Macau Grand Prix in November and Chinese New Year (usually in January or February) bring spectacular festivities but also larger crowds and higher accommodation rates.
