Ocean Terminal (traditional Chinese: 海運大廈), built in 1966, is a cruise terminal and shopping centre in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong. It is owned by The Wharf (Holdings) Limited. It was once a wharf pier on the west shore of Tsim Sha Tsui. The pier was later rebuilt and enlarged, and became a cruise terminal. Apart from a terminal, it is also a multi-story shopping centre and was re-branded together with nearby buildings of the Wharf as Harbour City.

Heavy Load

The annual berth utilisation rate of Ocean Terminal in Tsim Sha Tsui, which offers two berths accommodating vessels of up to 50,000 tonnes, rose to 76% last year from 71% in 2003. Between 2001 and 2005, some 11 cruise vessels had to berth mid-stream and at container terminals because Ocean Terminal could not meet market demand.
