Hong Kong Maritime Museum

Background

The Hong Kong Maritime Museum (HKMM) is an independent, non-profit registered charity founded by members of the Hong Kong shipping industry, supported by the business community, individuals and the Hong Kong SAR Government. As a cultural institution, we are dedicated to showcasing and preserving the maritime heritage and contemporary marine environment of Hong Kong and the South China Sea. 

Rooted in China, but looking to the world, we aim to inspire people's appreciation of their relationship with the sea. By connecting East and West, maritime cultural heritage and sustainable ocean development, we delve into the profound ties between people and the sea. Through our rich exhibitions and educational programs, we hope to cultivate public passion and respect for maritime culture and promote the sustainable development of the marine environment.

Vision

To be recognised globally as the leading maritime museum in the Asia Pacific region that inspires people’s appreciation of their relationship with the sea.

Mission

As a maritime museum we preserve, showcase and commemorate the maritime culture and experiences of the people of Hong Kong; rooted in China, but looking to the world. We achieve this in the following ways:

  • We promote engagement with the maritime heritage and contemporary marine environment of Hong Kong and southern China, placing it within its national and international narratives.

  • We project a sense of social responsibility through collaboration, networking, and community engagement.

  • We preserve the diversity of maritime culture, and peoples’ relationship with the sea through our collecting and stories.

  • We provide outstanding and inclusive museum experiences through academic research, educational programmes, displays, and outreach for public benefit.
