Shanghai Getaway! Shengsi Island in May is So Beautiful I Can Barely Move On

Friends! Who gets it?! Shengsi Island in May is literally a real-life island fairy tale 🌊, I was moved to tears by its beauty 😭! Stop crowding into popular tourist spots - you can unlock top-tier island vacations right near Shanghai! I declare this place the ultimate "relaxation vacation" destination! Riding an electric scooter 🛵 along the coastal highway, with an orange sunset sea 🌄 on the left and free beaches for crab hunting 🦀 on the right - who can understand this kind of joy?! The rainbow walls 🌈 in the fishing village and the pink maze on the sea make every casual photo a social media-worthy masterpiece 📸, no editing needed! 💢 Here's the highlight! My stay at [Shengsi Lidao Weicheng Seaview Hotel] maximized the island experience 💥! ✅ Free 2-hour electric scooter rental with 30 vehicles to choose from - cruising around the island is incredibly stylish ✅ The hotel has a starry art gallery ✨ with 360° mirror illusion spaces where even amateur photographers can take magazine-worthy shots ✅ Just 30 meters away is a colorful basketball court and beach - get atmospheric photos 📷 without fighting crowds! ✅ Evening activities include beachside BBQ 🍢 and outdoor movies 🎦 - perfect for team building or family trips! ✅ The location is absolutely prime - just a 10-minute walk to Left Bank Road and Donghai Fishing Village, with the popular reef coffee shop just steps away ☕️! Click below to get the same sea view room ------ Here's my three-day, two-night lazy traveler's guide 👇 Day 1 Departing from Shanghai area, head straight to the seafood street 🦐 upon evening arrival! Enjoying the sea breeze, delicious seafood, and night views 🌉 - this is how a vacation should be! Day 2 After an energizing breakfast 🥪, take clamming tools to Jihu Beach! Dig in the sand, go beachcombing, and collect a bucket of small crabs 🦀 - happiness overload! Around 2-3 PM, hop on an electric scooter 🛵 to Left Bank Road where the scenery is breathtaking! When tired, stop at Reef Tea & Coffee for afternoon tea ☕️ - just 30 yuan per person for a sea view seat. Take another romantic ride at sunset, with the golden rays shining on you, creating perfect vibes! Day 3 Leave the guesthouse at 4 AM, ride an electric scooter for 15 minutes to Liuhe Chaoyang Scenic Area to see China's easternmost first ray of sunlight 🌅! The white lighthouse is super photogenic 📸! After the sunrise, follow the boardwalk to Heshangtao to see the stone forest at sea 🪨 and marvel at nature's masterpiece. In the afternoon, explore and eat at Donghai Fishing Village, which has an artistic atmosphere and is the birthplace of Zhoushan fishermen's paintings 🎨! Catch the last ferry off the island at 6 PM to perfectly end your journey. Island Transportation Guide 🚢 For those coming from Shanghai 👇 South Puxi Long-Distance Bus Station → Shenjia Bay Wharf → Shengsi Shijiao Wharf If driving, remember to choose the ro-ro ferry! Waitlist tickets on "Shengsi Passenger Transport" 5 days in advance - booking opens at 7 AM, and they sell out fast 😭! This May, bring your family and friends to Shengsi Island for a healing and joyful island adventure 💖!
