海岛日记(养马岛店)

A great coffee shop for taking photos and checking in. The scenery is beautiful and the coffee is good. I recommend it.

☁️"The wind on the seaside, the rain on the eaves, I still like you the same after all the twists and turns" This cafe that I want to sit in every time I go back to Yantai is on Yangma Island. ☁️Turning left at the end of the road going up from Tianma Square, you can see the white building standing on the coast. Island Diary has become a symbol of Yangma Island. It is not only a seaside cafe☕, but also a homestay in summer🏨, and a wedding venue👰🏻💒🤵. ☁️The white building on the seaside has 2 floors, and the homestay has 3 floors. It faces north and south, and the homestay and the cafe are connected by a spacious small courtyard. In winter, most people like warm🔥 indoor seats, but I prefer the open area on the second floor. It is spacious and you can also feel the fierce north wind🌪️, the blazing afternoon sun🌞, the warm and charming sunset🌇, and the sound of waves🌊. ☁️It is probably a very happy thing for tourists to use Yantai specialty Yanshu 25🍠 as a special blend😁, but when you learn that it is sold out, the disappointment is doubled😞! Fortunately, there is a specially customized [Yantai] cup grip, a cup of strong grapefruit black tea down the throat🍊, warm. Osmanthus latte☕ can taste the fragrance of osmanthus. ☁️This winter, you must come to this island to taste the Yanshu 25 special blend~ ☕Store name: Island Diary 📍Address: Building 2, No. 397, Huanhai Road, Yangma Island, Muping District, Yantai City #New Year's First Tour #2021 New Year Must-Brush Destination #Immersive Winter #New Year's Coolest Travel #Flying New Year Self-Driving Tour

The so-called "Sunset Orange Sea" doesn't refer to a specific scenic spot, but rather a stunning natural phenomenon encountered on the northern coast of the Shandong Peninsula (especially around Yantai and Weihai) under specific weather and coastal conditions. On a clear day with a clear atmosphere, the setting sun paints the entire Bohai Sea a rich orange-red, making the sea surface appear like flowing honey and molten gold—this is the intoxicating "Orange Sea." The **Yangma Island Ring Road in Yantai** offers a classic vantage point for capturing this wonder. **📍 Key Viewpoints (within Yangma Island):** 1. **Qinfeng Cliff/Zhangdao Area**: Located at the eastern end of the sea behind the island. A wooden boardwalk extends into the sea here, offering an unobstructed view of the sunset. The iconic seahorse sculpture silhouetted beautifully in the golden light, making it a popular spot for photography. 2. **Island Diary Area (Lotus Sunset)**: Located on the western side of the island. The coastline here is relatively gentle, and the sunset sinks directly into the sea, making it ideal for photographing people interacting with the vast ocean. The pure white building of the popular "Island Diary" café adds a touch of freshness to the orange background. 3. **Along the Ring Road**: Don't be fixated on a fixed spot. While driving or cycling along the ring road, keep an eye on the western sea; you'll often find unexpected discoveries. The eastern coastline takes on a soft blue-pink hue under the sunset's glow. **⏰ Golden Time and Itinerary Suggestions:** * **Season**: Autumn (September-October) offers the clearest air and the highest success rate. Winter skies are clear but cold, and summer requires caution due to fog. * **Daytime**: **Arrive at least one hour before sunset.** The approximately 30 minutes before and after sunset are the "golden hour" and "blue hour," when light and color change rapidly. Check the exact sunset time in advance. * **Itinerary Planning:** We recommend arriving on the island in the afternoon, first exploring the east side (bathing beach, rocky shore, etc.), then driving to the west or southwest side before evening to select a viewpoint and await the spectacular sunset. **📸 Photography and Experience Suggestions:** * **Photography:** Use a mobile phone or camera; lowering the exposure compensation will result in richer colors. Silhouettes of people, golden edges on the waves, and returning fishing boats are all excellent subjects. * **Clothing:** It can be windy at the beach in the evening; be sure to bring a windproof jacket. * **Transportation:** We recommend driving or renting an electric scooter to explore the island, offering flexibility. Parking can be difficult at popular spots on weekends and holidays in the evening; allow extra time. **✨ Special Note:** The "Orange Sea" is a natural gift and is highly dependent on the weather. Always check the weather forecast before your trip and choose a sunny or partly cloudy day. Overcast skies will significantly diminish the scenery. Maintain a calm mindset, but when the sunset ignites the sea, you'll understand that all the waiting was worthwhile. This sunset is a conspiracy between light and sea, transforming the most ordinary twilight into a flowing, warm epic.
