[2025 Beihai Attraction] Travel Guide for Blue Bridge (Updated Apr)

My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this little gem while exploring the island on a scooter 🛵. Compared to the heavily commercialized beachfront, this cozy and artsy little restaurant felt like a rare find. 🥩 The pork chop omelet rice was amazing! The pork chop was crispy, the omelet was tender, and the rice was perfectly cooked. Every bite was pure satisfaction. 🍚 The curry chicken rice was also delicious. The curry was rich and flavorful, the chicken was tender, and the sauce was perfect for mixing with the rice. 🐓 The sour and spicy chicken feet were tangy, spicy, and had a nice, chewy texture. The iced coconut milk was smooth, refreshing, and the perfect way to cleanse the palate after the spicy dishes. Weizhou Island, Blue Bridge, Shiluo Kou Beach. If you're on the island with your friends 👭 and don't know where to eat, definitely give this place a try!

[One] Located on Weizhou Island in Haicheng District, Beihai, there is an attractive independent seaside B&B, which will create a dream trip for you at any time. The wooden house is built by the sea, and you can step onto the fine and soft sand in just one minute, achieving true beach freedom. Popular attractions such as the Blue Bridge, Nanwan Street, Shiluokou and Cactus Viewing Platform are within easy reach. You can even pick up the tools provided by the B&B and go to the beach to pick up shells and catch seafood, and enjoy the magnificent scenery of sunrise and sunset. [DoubleHearts] [Two] The B&B has two carefully crafted rooms, each with beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the sea and a comfortable bathtub. You can enjoy the charming sea view while taking a bath, and you can have a panoramic view of the magnificent sea while lying on the bed. The room is fully equipped, the bedding is clean and tidy, the bathroom is separated, and the toiletries have a pleasant fragrance, allowing you to enjoy comfort and pleasure. [DoubleHearts] [Three] In addition, the homestay provides thoughtful services, including pick-up and drop-off services from the Weizhou Island Pier, as well as photo-taking spots such as beach thatched huts, swings, and cafes. We also have tourist maps and guides prepared for you, and you can choose from a variety of activities such as renting electric cars, sea fishing, diving, whale watching, Trip Moments, etc. The hotel is fully equipped with restaurants, cafes, teahouses and other supporting facilities, and the food in the restaurant is simply amazing. In the evening, you can also book a beach restaurant, sit by the sea, taste delicious food, enjoy the fireworks, and feel the romance and warmth of the sunset over the Blue Bridge.

🌊Before summer arrives, let's have another beach vacation~ Riding a scooter around the island to see the sea, the sea breeze is gentle My ideal retirement life, I love it so much - 🌊Guangzhou➡️Beihai: High-speed train 5h 🚉Beihai➡️Weizhou Island: 🚢1.2h, buy ferry tickets on the WeChat official account "Laiyouba" (🎫150–180) + Island fee 🎫98 (20 mins from the station to the pier) ❗️Buy ferry tickets 2 days in advance during the off-season. We could only buy 180 tickets for the return trip, but compared to the 150 tickets on the way there, the environment is much more comfortable. If you're worried about seasickness, you can buy the 180 ones. - 🏨Accommodation: The homestay booked online is quite nice. You can buy seafood and have it processed at the homestay. The homestay also provides travel guides and pier transfers, and the price is also cheap~ 🛵Transportation: You can basically rent scooters on the island, 60/day. We rented a car at the homestay, with no time limit. It's so cool to ride around the island. 📝Travel essentials: Sunscreen🧴, sunglasses🕶️, sun hat👒, motion sickness medicine💊, flip-flops🩴, toiletries, cold medicine (our friend caught a cold on the first day from the sea breeze) - Day 1⃣️： We arrived at the homestay around 5pm, so we planned to go directly to Nanwan Street for dinner🦞 💛Nanwan Food Street: The most lively place on Weizhou Island, there is a seafood market. We bought seafood in the evening, found a shop to process it, and after dinner, went to Qiqi's Dessert Shop (Nanwan Street No. 1 Store) for dessert. The super lively street makes this small island even more welcoming. - Day 2⃣️： 💛Shell Beach🐚: Weizhou Island - Shell Beach. We went out at 6am and rode a scooter🛵 to Shell Beach to watch the sunrise🌅. The sand is very fine, and the sunrise is super beautiful (Picture 4) 💛Catholic Church⛪️: Weizhou Island Catholic Church (Picture 9) is right next to Shell Beach. We found a small shop nearby for breakfast, visited the church, peaceful and beautiful (keep quiet when entering the church) 💛Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area: Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area, the only scenic spot on the island that requires tickets, is the core scenic spot of Weizhou Island, and the volcanic crater scenic spot is inside. It takes about 2h to visit. We bought scenic spot bus tickets 🎫20 yuan for round-trip transfers (otherwise, it's a long walk). You need to climb slopes, and a long section of the road around the sea is open-air and very sunny (strongly recommend going in the morning). Standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the sea is absolutely stunning (Picture 24) 💛Dishuidanping: Dishuidanping Scenic Area - Beach. It's very close to Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area. We rested on the beach for a while, enjoyed the sea breeze, and chatted. 💛Island Ring Road: The most beautiful ring road is a must-pass on the way to Nanwan Street. We went to Qingning Ice Room for dessert. Their herbal jelly + fried yogurt is really👍. The owner even let us move chairs🪑to the roadside to take pictures. You deserve fresh summer road photos~(Picture 256) 💛Blue Bridge Beach: The sunset is extremely beautiful (Picture 7) - Day 3⃣️： 💛Shiluokou Beach: Shiluokou Beach. Because Muya is closed, we found a photo spot as spectacular as Muya. Walk to the right at the entrance of the beach, and when you see a mountain, you've arrived (Picture 3) At noon, we went back to Qingning Ice Room for herbal jelly and then returned. - 🌻Truth: Everyone has mixed reviews about Weizhou Island. It's true that you might encounter scams when buying seafood, but riding around the sea is really comfortable. Passing by small villages gives me the feeling of living in the countryside of Hainan with my grandparents when I was a child. Traveling is for happiness, so you can learn more and try to avoid being scammed~

How can an island trip be complete without a sea view dinner? The sea, the beach, the sunset and the long bridge are just like those in romantic movies. There are also popular swings and ladders on the beach. In the afterglow of dusk, every photo is a blockbuster Weizhou Island Banana Chicken The specialties are different, golden chicken, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fried squid The squid is fresh, tender and smooth, just the way I like it. Special eggplant A large plate full of big ones, take a bite, this eggplant can be so delicate There are also salted egg yolk pumpkin 🎃 pineapple 🍍 rice is very nice In the sunset glow, walk hand in hand on the beach, watching the sea and sky merge into one color.
