ABERDEEN HARBOUR

Aberdeen is an area at the south side of Hong Kong Island, located in the Southern District of Hong Kong. Aberdeen Harbour is a harbour between Aberdeen and Ap Lei Chau.

As with all Aberdeens outside Scotland, it was named after the original Aberdeen by nostalgic Scots who colonised Hong Kong.

It is famous to tourists for the boat people living in the harbour and the floating seafood restaurants.

The boat people are generally associated with the fishing industry, however, there are several dozen mainly expatriates also living on boats in the harbour.

Canadian International School of Hong Kong, is also located on Nam Long Shan near Aberdeen.
