D'Aguilar Peninsula (Chinese: 鶴咀半島) is located in southeastern Hong Kong Island, in the Southern District of Hong Kong. It is named after Major-General Sir George Charles d'Aguilar.
Cape D'Aguilar is located in the southeastern part of D'Aguilar Peninsula. It is worth noting that Hok Tsui (Chinese: 鶴咀) actually refers to a different cape to the southwest of the peninsula.
