    Quanfu Island is a fascinating pearl in the Xisha Islands. Its beauty is pure and extreme. The beach is as white and delicate as snow, shining in the sun, and the sea water presents fantastic colors, from light blue to dark blue, like a dream painting. The ecology on the island is primitive and rich, with various seabirds flying and marine life shuttling around the surrounding waters. It is far away from the hustle and bustle, so quiet that you can hear the resonance of the waves and your heartbeat. Every step is like walking on the most proud work of nature, which makes people linger. It is an excellent place to wash away the fatigue of the soul and feel the charm of the ocean. It is one of the most precious treasures given to mankind by nature.
