The blue sea unique to Wenzhou!

I found this azure sea that 99% of Wenzhou locals wouldn't believe exists! Some say it's all about filters, so take a look at these unfiltered photos! Wenzhou has many beautiful landscapes—flower viewing depends on the season, sunrise and sea of clouds require luck, and seeing the sea also needs strategy! - 1⃣ Season 🏝 The best months for sea viewing are May, June, July, August, and September. I highly recommend May because the sea breeze is incredibly pleasant, the sunlight isn't too harsh, the shores are covered in unnamed wildflowers, and there's a high chance of encountering bioluminescent plankton (blue tears)! 2⃣ Weather 🌤 Check the weather forecast in advance—sunny days are ideal. Cloudy days might bring rain or overcast skies. I've been to Weihai and Pingtan Island on cloudy days, and no filter could salvage the view. 3⃣ Location 📍 Beiji Island, a remote island in Wenzhou, takes 2 hours and 40 minutes by ferry from Rui'an Port Passenger Terminal (tickets cost 130 yuan). A 2-day trip is recommended to catch both sunset and sunrise. The island has a commercial street, homestays, and shops (PS: I thought the island was sparsely populated, but it's actually quite well-equipped and lively). 4⃣ Island Transport 🚢 Getting around relies on sightseeing buses—5 yuan per ride to attractions, all of which are free with no entrance fees. The island isn't overly commercialized, and prices for shops, restaurants, and homestays are similar to the mainland, making it more affordable than Nanji Island. 5⃣ Blue Tears 🔵 It was my first time seeing bioluminescent plankton, and I had no experience. At first, I used a light to search (the shore was pitch black, so I walked with my camera light on) and couldn't see anything at all!!!! Later!!! I learned that blue tears are only visible in complete darkness. They also move with the wind and waves, creating a truly magical sight.
