1. Tseung Kwan O Skatepark, Hong Kong Velodrome Park
The Tseung Kwan O Skatepark inside Hong Kong Velodrome Park is easily the crème de la crème of Hong Kong skateparks. It was overseen by Convic, who’s built over 700 of the best skating facilities in the world. There’s plenty of variety here – a whole assortment of smoothly curved ramps, ledges, and rails. You’ll also find drinking fountains, changing facilities with showers, plus floodlights and a first aid room. It sits in a landscaped park with verdant grass to rest on after the session, too.

4. On Fuk Street Playground
Located in Fan Ling, On Fuk Street Playground earns points for staying open the latest – the lights go out at 11pm – so you can have a productive session after the sun goes down. However, it loses points for being so damn far away! Nevertheless, this skatepark is worth the journey, offering a vertical ramp and a smooth bowl, as well as rails and ledges. There are also drinking fountains, vending machines, floodlights, and more. The nearby On Lok Mun Street Playground is even grander its three sets of bowls – but unfortunately, it’s currently under construction and due to move, only reopening in Q4 of 2024. Stay tuned, skaters!

5. Po Kong Village Road Park
Inside Po Kong Village Road Park in Diamond Hill is a world-class skatepark that features a perfect replica of Sydney’s famous Bondi skate bowl. The park has been designed to facilitate professional and international competitions, with facilities provided for beginners and intermediate skaters. But, since the security is quite tight here, remember to bring along your protective gear. There are ramps of various sizes, plus a few rails and ledges. Moreover, you can use the changing rooms, the drinking fountain, and floodlights, making it one of the top skateparks in Hong Kong.

6. Kwai Shun Street Playground
Another skatepark in Hong Kong that opens till late at 11pm, Kwai Shun Street Playground isn’t just a haven for skateboarders, but also for rollerbladers. Since the skateboard ground and the rollerskating rink are built under a bridge, you don’t have to worry about being exposed to the hot sun. With several chess tables on the side, the playground has a cool and calming vibe, too.

One of the longest-standing skateparks in Hong Kong, the red-and-yellow Lai Chi Kok Park is a classic. The park is divided into three sections for beginners, intermediates, and experts. While there isn’t much flow to the park, it’s good for learning. There are quarter pipes, mini ramps, and a small street section, along with basic park amenities.

Affectionately known as the Kwun Tong Country Club, this indoor skatepark has been built in a former Kwun Tong factory space, and there are wooden ramps, rails, ledges, a retail area and, of course, good music and ample AC for the hot summer days. Open to members and for advance bookings only, Sk85ive2 is a good venue for birthday parties.

11. Morrison Hill Road Playground
Another one of the longest-standing skateparks in the city is Morrison Hill Road Playground.

This multi-purpose site have small ramps resembling speed-bumps, along with rails and a flat section that are good for learners, making it our top pick for skateparks in Hong Kong.
