The weather in August
What the season does to Stanley & Repulse Bay this month.
Worth knowing
Typhoon Season
July to September is the height of the typhoon season. When the Hong Kong Observatory raises the No. 8 signal, almost everything shuts for hours to a day or two: ferries stop, the cable car, Disneyland, Ocean Park and most shops close, buses thin out, the MTR runs a reduced service and flights are cancelled. Watch the Observatory's app, keep a spare day before your flight home, and book refundable rooms and tickets.
Worth knowing
Heat and Storms on the Trails
Summer days are 31-34 °C and very humid, and the Dragon's Back, Lantau Peak and Sai Kung's trails have little shade. Start at dawn, carry two litres of water a person, and turn back if the Observatory issues a red or black rainstorm warning or a thunderstorm warning: hill paths flood and landslips happen.

Entry rules
No visa needed for up to 14 days
- Before you fly, register online for the free Pre-arrival Registration (PAR) for Indian nationals on the Hong Kong Immigration Department website (immd.gov.hk). It must succeed before you travel; do it as soon as you book, so there is time to apply for a visa if it does not.
- Print the PAR notification slip on blank white A4 paper and sign it. Airlines ask for it at check-in and will not board you without it; show it again at Hong Kong immigration. One registration is valid for six months.
- You may stay up to 14 days a visit. For a longer stay, or if your registration fails, you need a visa from the Immigration Department before you travel.
Carry: Passport valid for at least 6 months from the day you arrive; Signed PAR notification slip, printed on A4 paper; Confirmed return or onward ticket within 14 days; Hotel bookings for the stay; Proof of funds (bank statement or cards), if the officer asks.
The registration is free: sites that charge for it are not the Immigration Department. It covers Hong Kong only: Macau and mainland China have their own entry rules, so check them before a side trip.
Checked 2026-10; confirm with the embassy before you fly.
