Schools in Discovery Bay & Lantau

Discovery Bay on Lantau Island represents a unique residential environment within Hong Kong, functioning as a largely self-contained, low-density community where private cars are largely prohibited and residents travel by golf cart, bicycle, or ferry. The development has been built around family living, with an emphasis on outdoor space, community facilities, and a quieter pace of life that is markedly different from the urban density of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.

The Discovery Bay community supports its own schooling infrastructure, with international schools operating within or adjacent to the development catering to the resident expatriate population. Ferry services connect Discovery Bay to Central Pier on Hong Kong Island in approximately 25 minutes, making city-centre workplaces accessible for parents while children attend school locally. Some families also utilise dedicated school bus services operating via the North Lantau Highway and Tsing Ma Bridge for access to schools in Kowloon and on Hong Kong Island.

Lantau Island more broadly is home to the Hong Kong International Airport, several major residential developments, and a growing range of educational options catering to families based in the western New Territories and Tung Chung. The area is well connected by MTR via the Tung Chung and Airport Express lines. For families who prioritise space, a close community feel, and a suburban or semi-rural lifestyle within reach of a world-class city, Discovery Bay and Lantau offer a distinctive and highly appealing residential proposition that continues to attract international school families.
