Wucai Beach

The last stop of my trip in Hainan was Longmen Torrents. It is located in Danzhou, where Su Dongpo was once exiled. I stayed on Haihua Island upon arriving in Danzhou. The accommodation was the best value of the trip, costing just tens of yuan per day, with a room fully equipped with a washing machine, fridge, and induction cooker. There weren't many tourists, mostly from the north, but it was quite a distance from Longmen Torrents, nearly an hour's drive, half of which was through rural scenery. Near Longmen Torrents, there are actually three beaches, with Longmen Torrents being just one of them; the other two are Wucaili Beach and Lover's Beach. The three beaches are very close to each other. Longmen Torrents was somewhat disappointing. Its feature is a natural stone arch, behind which is a long rocky beach covered with volcanic rocks, making it difficult to walk on. In the distance, some people were gathering seafood from the sea; I really wondered how they managed to get down there. Lover's Beach was unremarkable—I went down, took a quick look around, and left. Wucaili Beach was the most satisfying. It's only two or three hundred meters long, with high cliffs facing the sea, fiery red mountain rocks, black reefs, and cacti all over. There's a lighthouse on top of the cliff. In the middle of the sea, there's a tall reef that, during high tide, is the only one that remains visible above the water, while the others are submerged. Some say it looks like a sail, but from the angle of my photo, it resembles Aladdin's lamp. Not far from Longmen Torrents, by the roadside near the sea, there's a flat area with some fishing boats moored on the sea, and a lighthouse visible in the distance. The shore is lined with volcanic rocks, with occasional flowers and plants growing among them. This spot was perfect for backlighting, with the distant setting sun like blood and the green leaves on the black volcanic rocks nearby dazzlingly bright.

Sharing some tips while also helping everyone avoid potential disappointments. It's not that Weizhou Island is not nice, it's just not as great as described online 😅 Transportation✈️🚢 Flights from Hangzhou to Beihai are scarce and at inconvenient times, so I flew to Nanning, played for a day, then took the high-speed train to Beihai to catch a ferry to the island. Not flying directly to Beihai makes the journey more complicated... The island is quite small, mainly e-scooters➕tourist buses. It's cost-effective to charter a tourist bus when in a group. Accommodation🏠 Booked a homestay near the Colorful Beach for the sunrise, everything else was ok, but the breakfast was too perfunctory... It's been a long time since I've had such a sloppy breakfast (if you don't mind, you can PM me to ask). Food🍽️ 🔶Nanning 🔸Gui Xiaochu: Tastes good👍 🔷Weizhou Island (for the convenience of the elders, we dined near the scenic spots) 🔹Jiefu·Vietnamese Beef Pho: Can't believe this was my favorite meal! Nice environment, delicious💯 🔹Jingye Restaurant: Scenic spot, ‼️you can't see the sunset here, only the afterglow🫠Average dishes, but the environment wins. 🔹starry Starry Coast: Seaside scenic spot, average taste, located at Shiluokou Beach, where you can eat while watching the sunset, good for taking photos. 🔹Chicken Auntie·Coconut Chicken: Average coconut chicken, compared to the ones I've had before, I personally find it overpriced and in small portions. 🔹Daydream Fusion Restaurant: Passionfruit ribs are delicious (don't go to the coconut seller next to it towards the church direction, I bought a bad one, and when I found the seller within three minutes, he cursed and said I didn't buy it from him / 'See You Tomorrow' mango ice on the same street is okay🉑️) 🔹Homestay Lunch: The homestay bought seafood and processed it, which was the best seafood meal on the island🤤Banana chicken is delicious🐔 🔹Fruits: Jackfruit and bananas are delicious, there are also longan and starfruit trees near the homestay that you can pick and eat.

Those who have been to Xinjiang know that there is a beautiful Colorful Beach there, and the Colorful Beach on Weizhou Island also has its own characteristics: the rocks by the sea have formed a covering of green moss and seaweed due to long-term marine erosion, and the sea stone platform presents a colorful spectacle under the sunlight, hence the name Colorful Beach. There are also natural landscapes such as sea trenches and sea erosion caves on the marine erosion platform. The Colorful Beach is also the best place on Weizhou Island to watch the sunrise. We went there in the afternoon, so we waited until the sunset glow before leaving. If you want to capture the colorful marine erosion platform, it is recommended to go in the early morning or before evening.

Second stop Weizhou Island Once a refuge for Hakka people and a pirate treasure hiding place, now the "second most beautiful island in China" and a popular tourist destination. This youngest volcanic island in China has developed rapidly in recent years. In some people's mouths, she is already a disappointing small island, while in others' mouths, she is still a gentle hometown for urban people. It's not difficult to tour the whole island in a day. Along the way, you can watch the sunrise on the shell beach, see the rare geological landscape of sea erosion cliffs, sea erosion caves, and sea erosion platforms in China when the tide recedes on the colorful beach. In the Catholic Church, you can learn about the history of the islanders' ancestors opening up a new home under the leadership of missionaries. In Crocodile Mountain Park, you can see the spectacular landform formed by volcanic eruptions on the scorched earth. Finally, at Dripping Water Danping, you can enjoy the sunset or try the water entertainment projects on the island. Camping on Weizhou Island is a very comfortable thing. The shell beach, colorful beach, dripping water Danping, and snail mouth beach on the island are all good choices. Although the old divers will not dive here, the water quality and coral ecology near Weizhou Island are considered to be above average in China. It's okay for novices to experience it. The best diving spot in this sea area is the slanting sun island in the deep sea, where the sea water is clear and the sea floor is wonderful. Snail mouth, South Bay, and Dripping Water Danping all have diving clubs, among which South Bay Water Sports Base is larger. There are also clown fish diving, volcanic island diving base and Xinchanglong diving tourism resort. Sea fishing is a characteristic activity of Weizhou Island. The hot season for sea fishing is from March to June every year, and the National Sea Fishing Championship is held here in May. The rocks by the sea of Crocodile Mountain are good fishing spots, usually yielding green clothes and grouper. The oil pier, piglet ridge, military pier, and slanting sun island hanging alone overseas are all excellent places for sea fishing. There are not many shops that rent fishing gear concentrated in South Bay, you can also go out to sea with fishermen to catch fish and live a pure half-day sea life.

How many ways are there to eat oysters? Garlic, white boiled, charcoal grilled... Just thinking about it makes your mouth water! Now is the season when oysters are fat and juicy, and Qinzhou, the 'Big Oyster Town of China', is definitely worth a visit. However, since you are in the Beibu Gulf region, just one Qinzhou is not enough, why not take a 4-6 day self-drive tour, along the coastline to experience the colors of the three cities (Beihai, Qinzhou, Fangchenggang) in the Beibu Gulf that are completely different from the hinterland of Guangxi. From the colorful Wuhai Beach to the old streets in black and white film, you can enjoy a slow-paced life, or dive into the sea to explore the unknown world. Most people in Beihai have vivid memories of the pyramid schemes and real estate bubbles here, but Beihai, which has already awakened from these two nightmares, is welcoming the arrival of travelers with an unprecedented peaceful attitude. Silver Beach is a rare high-quality bathing beach on the coastline of Guangxi and even the whole of China. The silver-white beach and clear sea water meet most people's expectations of the beach. The sand here is very fine and soft, and it feels great to step on it barefoot; the long beach is also gently sloping, making it suitable for swimming and walking. Dusk is the most beautiful time on Silver Beach, the tide-smoothed sand is smooth as a mirror, perfectly reflecting every inch of changing sky light. If you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of tourists, go to the beach park a little to the west, where the coast is more suitable for strolling. The old street is a clear mark of old Beihai. Zhuhai Road, which was built in 1883, was once the busiest commercial district in Beihai, later became a street mainly for residences, and is now a sightseeing pedestrian street. The shops that used to sell fishermen's supplies have turned into restaurants, bars, guesthouses, coffee shops and shops selling tourist souvenirs. Unlike other extremely commercialized pedestrian streets in China, there are places here that locals also frequent, and you need a little patience to identify them. Although the various reliefs, window tops and plaques of each household have lost some of their age after several renovations, they are still worth stopping and watching carefully. Guantouling is a good place for self-drivers to avoid the crowd on the west side of the city. There are fewer tourists here, and it is a holiday paradise for locals. This is the highest point in Beihai, with lush vegetation on the mountain, you can drive to the top to overlook the sea; the South Village at the foot of the mountain is known as the 'First Village of Beihai', the coastal erosion area on the beach has the momentum of a 'small Weizhou Island', and the large seafood stalls outside the village, such as South Fishing Village, are often visited by local self-drivers. · Seaside city, seafood is indispensable ·>The location of Waisha Island is very good, close to the sea and the city, and there are many large seafood restaurants, high quality and high price, not necessarily suitable for all travelers. There are also many seafood stalls in the area of Qiaogang Style Street, and in recent years there have been many mid-priced, exquisite new-style restaurants, suitable for diners who have requirements for the dining atmosphere. More economical seafood stalls are concentrated on Sanzhong Road, Guizhou Road North Section, but do not have expectations for the dining environment. Another good way is to go to the seafood market to buy ingredients yourself, many hotels in Beihai offer cooking services for guests, and some roadside restaurants can also do it. The Civilized Market and Nanzhu Market in the city center, and the Qiaogang Market in Qiaogang, are all popular seafood markets favored by citizens. More advanced buyers will go directly to Waisha Pier, Qiaogang Pier, and Nanwan Pier to buy, with fresh catches in the early morning and bargain prices at night.

Colorful Beach is our favorite place on Weizhou Island, because it is relatively distinctive, especially from the entrance to the beach, not far to the left, is the largest sea erosion platform on the island. When the tide is low, you can see the sea erosion ditch. The sun shines brightly and colorfully. The sea caves with different shapes are also everywhere. In addition, there are a lot of seaside barbecue stalls gathered here. It seems that the price is quite cheap. If you are hungry, you may wish to try it. Here is a special sentence, the stone is very slippery! Very very slippery!

The colorful beach of Weizhou Island is a rare geological landscape belt integrating sea erosion cliff, sea erosion platform and sea erosion cave. This east-facing beach is the sunrise of the sunrise on Weizhou Island. Unfortunately, the day I arrived, it was just the rising tide. I took a different sunrise the colorful beach area with a distance of 1.5 kilometers. With a sea cliff of 20-50 meters high, the cliff face stands tall and spectacular. In the colorful beach at low tide, you can see the layers of sea erosion ditch, which is very beautiful under the sunshine. General 5
