Peng Chau Public Pier (Chinese: 坪洲公眾碼頭) is a public pier in Peng Chau, New Territories, Hong Kong. It is located in Wing On Side Street (Chinese: 永安橫街) and next to Peng Chau Ferry Pier (Chinese: 坪洲渡輪碼頭).[1] The old pier was built in 1955 and replaced by the new one in 2004.[2][3] The pier is mainly for loading and unloading of goods, and running kai-to operation between Peng Chau and Nim Shue Wan in Discovery Bay via Trappist Haven Monastery on Lantau Island.
