Aberdeen Harbour (香港仔) is a harbour at the south side of Hong Kong Island, located in the Southern District of Hong Kong.

As with all Aberdeens outside Scotland, it was named after the original Aberdeen by nostalgic Scots who colonised Hong Kong. It is famous to tourists for the boat people living in the harbour and the floating seafood restaurants.
