Luk Keng Village or Luk Keng Tsuen (Chinese: 鹿頸村) is a village located on the Yam O peninsula on Lantau Island in the New Territories of Hong Kong, which links to Cheung Sok, a nearby uninhabited island, via a sandbank. From the Luk Keng Pier there a kai-to transportation service to Tsing Lung Tau in Tsuen Wan.
