Whitehead Pickleball Courts (Riverside Golf)
“Four outdoor courts on the Whitehead peninsula at the Riverside golf driving range, laid out along the water with Tolo Harbour behind the far baseline. It is one of the few places in Hong Kong to book a proper outdoor court by the hour, and at the HK$50 flat rate on the operator's September price table it would be the cheapest court hire in the city; parking is free with a booking (an hour of court time covers two hours of parking). Book online with a card up to seven days ahead; the range's changing rooms, coffee shop and pro shop are next door. Bring court shoes, and expect a walk or a minibus from Wu Kai Sha.”

Pricing & hours
What it costs, and when.
First-visit plan
Can I show up as a beginner?
Probably — check the session level and who's running it before you travel.
Do I need my own gear?
Bring your own paddle and balls unless the organizer says otherwise — don't assume loaners are available.
What should I verify first?
Booking route, session level, exact court setup, price, and whether beginners can join the slot you want.
What works
- Four outdoor courts with a harbour view, rare in HK
- HK$50/hr on the operator's current price table, plus free parking with a booking
- Online card booking, no membership
What to know
- 17 min walk from Wu Kai Sha MTR (or minibus 807X)
- Open-air, so weather-dependent; night lighting not confirmed
- The HK$50 rate looks freshly published and directories still quote HK$100–130, so check the price at checkout
