Red Bay Tourist Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
The beach is full of ripples and the coastal reefs are diverse. There are 57 kilometers of long coastline, beautiful coastal scenery, numerous cultural relics and unique subtropical coastal scenery, making Red Bay a hot spot for leisure travel on the beach every year.
When the car drove into the Red Bay, it felt a sudden bright spot in the sun, the beach was a touch of golden yellow, shining slightly, and the blue sea was connected to the blue sky and water.
There are a few black reefs dotted in it, the waves of the ripples are gently rubbed, and occasionally white waves are splashed. On the vast beaches, visitors can take a dip in the surf, take a leisurely stroll, and enjoy the sun bath.
The long beach stretches out and spreads out, and the beautiful circular arc is pulled out by the sea, revealing a quiet beauty. I smell the breath of the sea, my heart is full of desire, maybe this is the eternal charm of the sea.

Stop asking, it's really not abroad but Shanwei
In Shanwei, Guangdong, I found a bay that is just as beautiful as Jeju Island—Red Bay.
Compared to other seaside areas in Guangdong, Red Bay has an unspoiled glassy sea, giving a feeling of being out of the country
If you want to see the sea during the holidays, go to this beach with few people and beautiful scenery.
🚗 How to get to Red Bay
Take the high-speed train to Shanwei Station from various places, navigate to 'Red Beach Tourist Area', the scenic area is free, and you can get there by self-driving, taxi, or bus.
🌊 One-day tour route
Follow my tour route, all the way is beautiful sea views:
'📍Tianliao Village Hou'ao Beach → South Sea Guanyin Scenic Area → Sea Castle → Seaside Road → Zhelang Battery'
1️⃣ Hou'ao Beach
A free and deserted glassy sea, fishing boats, windmills, and shells 🐚 that can be picked up everywhere, I stayed here until I didn't want to leave.
2️⃣ South Sea Guanyin Scenic Area
The Guanyin statue facing the sea is solemn and sacred, and the rocks near the sea are also great for taking photos.
3️⃣ Sea Castle
The best photo spot in the whole of Shanwei, the abandoned castle and huge waves are just like the Jeju Island vibe. The castle coffee shop nearby is also very photogenic 📷
4️⃣ Seaside Road
The rainbow 🌈 road by the sea has many leisurely cafes, it's super comfortable to watch the sea while having afternoon tea.
5️⃣ Zhelang Battery
To watch the sunset, you must walk to the seaside near the battery, with a 360-degree unobstructed view of the sunset 🌅, fishing boats, and birds are extremely beautiful.

Shanwei Red Bay | One hour from Guangzhou! Take the high-speed train to see the sea~
Starting from Guangzhou, the fastest high-speed train (Xintang Station) can reach Shanwei Station in just 1 hour, and the slowest high-speed train (South Station) is no more than 2 hours. With the opening of Guangzhou Baiyun Station and Shan-Shan high-speed rail, it is more convenient for us to go to the Chaoshan area to play~.
As everyone knows, Guangdong can freely watch the sea even in winter now, after all, without cold air, the temperature is often 25 or 26 degrees, it is appropriate to go to blow the sea breeze. Take the bus from Shanwei Station, only 2 stops and less than 30 minutes, teleport to Red Bay! Of course, it's faster if you take a taxi.
Speaking of Red Bay, the must-visit place is definitely Zhe Lang Peninsula. An abandoned building stands by the sea, eating wind and sun, drinking salty sea water, being eroded and mottled and incomplete, pure Harry Potter·Azkaban's immediate sense, "dark wizards" can pose here at will, definitely produce great pictures in seconds, love it.
