Mr.Philip(Australia) replied:
Gday Mr Harrison
If you are flying into HK, you can get the ferry from the airport, just go to the transfer desk before going through customs, they will collect your luggage for you even, no need for customs, 1st customs is Zhuhai (China). Tip, buy 1st class you get let off first so customs is quicker.

Yes, May 2nd is just during the Labor Day in Zhuhai and the Phi Ta Khon Festival in Macau. Is there ferry operating between Macau and Zhuhai? This two cities is just connected by the Gongbei Customs that you could enter into Zhuhai from Macau on foot, vice versa:)
