Best Time to Visit Hong Kong: November Travel Tips

If you’ve been dreaming of exploring Hong Kong but want to skip the summer heat and big crowds, November is your golden month. The city shines during this time—cooler weather, blue skies, and just the right mix of buzz and calm make it a perfect month for both families and solo travelers to explore.

Perfect Weather for Exploring

November in Hong Kong brings mild temperatures—usually between 19°C to 25°C—with low humidity. That means no sticky heat, no heavy rain, and plenty of comfortable days to walk, hike, or cruise around the islands.

It’s the ideal season for:

  • Victoria Peak: Take the Peak Tram or a scenic drive up for stunning views of the skyline without the summer haze.

  • Lantau Island: Enjoy clear skies for the Ngong Ping 360 cable car ride and visit the Big Buddha in comfort.

  • Island Hopping: Explore Cheung Chau or Lamma Island by ferry and enjoy peaceful village walks and local snacks.

Scenic Views and Outdoor Adventures

November is also the time when Hong Kong’s landscapes look their best. With less humidity, every view feels sharper and more vivid.

Families can head to Hong Kong Disneyland or Ocean Park without worrying about the heat, while solo travelers can take leisurely hikes such as:

  • Dragon’s Back – famous for coastal views and an easy-to-moderate trail.

  • Lion Rock – a bit tougher but rewards you with a breathtaking skyline view.

  • Nan Lian Garden – a peaceful escape in the middle of the city, perfect for quiet reflection or photos.

For Families

November is one of the best times for family-friendly travel. With the pleasant weather and smaller crowds, it’s easy to explore outdoor attractions without rushing. Kids will love:

  • Riding the Star Ferry across Victoria Harbour.

  • Visiting The Peak Tower’s Sky Terrace 428 for panoramic city views.

  • Exploring Museums like the Hong Kong Science Museum or Space Museum.

Tip: Carry light jackets for evenings, especially if you’re planning a harbour cruise or visiting Victoria Peak at night.

For Solo Travelers

If you’re traveling solo, November is your time to wander freely. The city feels safe, welcoming, and full of hidden gems waiting to be discovered.
Try:

  • A peaceful morning walk at Chi Lin Nunnery.

  • Joining a small-group walking tour to meet other travelers.

  • Taking a ferry to Cheung Chau Island to enjoy seafood and coastal trails.

Solo travel in November means more space, more quiet moments, and more authentic connections.

November is when Hong Kong feels at its best—bright, cool, and full of life without the rush. Whether you’re coming with family or flying solo, you’ll find that every corner of the city—from mountain trails to island villages—welcomes you with open arms.

So, pack your camera and walking shoes. Hong Kong in November is calling!
