One may get from Hong Kong to Macau with the 24-hour bridge shuttle bus via the HZMB (Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge), which takes about 30 minutes. One first has to go to the HZMB (Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge) Hong Kong Port (e.g., by bus), where one passes the immigration and buys a shuttle bus ticket to Macau (e.g., with Octopus card). The bridge shuttle bus runs every 5 to 15 minutes (according to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whYBITIHTpU). The ticket price for the bridge shuttle bus is currently (2019-10-28) 65 HKD for one way and one cannot purchase round-trip ticket.

Here is the machine to buy a shuttle bus ticket to Macau with an Octopus card at the HZMB (Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge) Hong Kong Port.

The same machine is available in the HZMB Macau Port.

(FYI: Is there any Add Value Machine for Octopus at HZMB (Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge) Hong Kong Port?)

You can otherwise queue to some counter to purchase the shuttle bus ticket to Macau with a different means of payment.

Gilles did an excellent job of answering this. I just want to add a few things. A few years back my friend and I were staying in Macau and took the Turbo Jet to and from Hong Kong. It took about one hour and cost about $80 each way. We thought about taking a helicopter ride one way just for the experience but it was going to be $350 for a one way flight. The experience wouldn’t have lasted that long either because it didn’t include any sightseeing. I think it was supposed to be only about a 15 or 20 minute ride. We decided against it, figuring we could spend that extra money at the Macau casinos.

A ferry is the only “normal” way to travel between Hong Kong and Macau (I think you can take a helicopter if you really want to spend a lot of money). There are multiple ferry links connecting different parts of Macau with different parts of Hong Kong.

Given that you don’t have all day, you should take the ferry straight from the Hong Kong airport when you land. There are ferries approximately every 2 hours during daytime. You don’t even go through Hong Kong immigration at that point, you get out of the airport and into the ferry terminal and directly to Macau immigration. Some airlines can check your luggage up to Macau. The ferry arrives in Macau at the Maritime Terminal.

From Macau to Hong Kong, there are several possible ferries with slightly different prices and schedules. You can check live departure information online. The most frequent is the TurboJet service from Macau Maritime Terminal to Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal; there is also a service to Kowloon.

From Hong Kong Central or Kowloon, the fastest way to go back to the airport is the Airport Express. There are many other, cheaper options by bus or regular subway plus bus (e.g. via Tung Chung in Lantau).

EU nationals can enter both Hong Kong and Macau without a visa for short stays (up to 90 days) for business or tourism.
