Thought Jeju Island was beautiful!! Until...

Nan'ao Island in this season is simply breathtakingly beautiful! Nan'ao Island is stunning❗ But don't come without a good plan 🙅🏻‍♀ Nan'ao Island is located in Shantou, Guangdong Known as the "Hawaii of the East" The sea is crystal clear, and the beach is wide and soft 🏖 Perfect for friends planning a summer beach trip 🏄🏻‍♀ But be sure to prepare well before going to avoid pitfalls 🕳! Getting to the island: ❶ Self-driving is the first choice Bridge toll is 96 yuan (round trip included) Attractions on the island are scattered, self-driving offers the most freedom ⚠ Warning: Weekend peak hours for entering the island are 9:00-15:00, it’s recommended to depart before 7:30 ❷ For public transport users Bus 161A (Shantou Station → Nan'ao Tourist Center) First bus 6:30 | Last bus 18:30 | Duration 1.5h | Fare 15 yuan Bus 105 (Xiti Pier → Gongqian Dayuan) First bus 6:40 | Last bus 20:30 | Passes through Shantou old town ❸ For flyers Jieyang Airport → Airport Express → Shantou Station → Transfer to Bus 161A Must-visit spots ❶ Changshanwei Lighthouse: Red lighthouse + Nan'ao Bridge in one frame, breathtaking at sunset Hidden photo spot: Rocky beach on the right side of the parking lot ❷ Qing'ao Bay: Glass sea + crescent beach + jet skiing ❸ Huanghuashan Forest Park: Entrance fee 20 yuan, check in at the popular "Tropic of Cancer" landmark ❹ Qianjiang Bay: "I❤Nan'ao" popular wall + sunset sailboats Recommended to come at 18:00 to see the sky turn into an orange sea —My secret tips ❶ Go to Zhuxi Duwan after 22:00 to see the blue tears (high season from April to June) ❷ Definitely drive the island ring road! Windmills, fishing boats, rainbow sea dike... every frame looks like a movie scene. In fact, any beach along the ring road is a very relaxing place. ❸ Dong'ao Village, a place without tourists. Also visit the Ao Qian Lighthouse. It’s not the usual popular lighthouse; the exact location to search is Nan'ao Fishing Port Supervision Yun'ao Supervision Station. Green lighthouse, blue sea, with the characters "Four Seas" on the ground. The end of the world and a free wonderland, nothing more. 💡 Accommodation recommendations: 📍 Houzhai 🌅: Best sunset sea view stays are: 1⃣ Shanhaihui 2⃣ Longguang Yuhai Coast Yayuan (be sure to choose the seaside side of the homestay apartments) 📍 Qing'ao Bay 🌄: 1⃣ Homestays and apartment hotels inside Bihai Lantian Garden (beach right downstairs) 2⃣ Homestays and apartment hotels inside Peninsula Yijing Garden (unique internal roads that look like they lead to the sea, the best spot to watch the sunrise) 💡 Food recommendations: 📍 Chaoshan specialty desserts and snacks: 1⃣ Wuli Sweet Soup 2⃣ Ranji Sweet Shop 3⃣ Nan'ao Island Juice Ice Company check-in spot 4⃣ Chengbo Fansha Shop 📍 Main dishes recommended: 1⃣ Xinweidao Seafood Stir-fry 2⃣ Wupingzhai Sea Fish Raft Restaurant (many branches, need the restaurant to send a boat to dine on the sea) 3⃣ Huangji Seafood Satay Noodles (more economical option) 🏝 Other tips 🏝 Make sure to take sun protection measures, pay attention to driving safety, and be careful of passing vehicles when taking photos by the roadside.
