[2025 Rongcheng Attraction] Travel Guide for Jiming Island (Updated Jul)

Bought a boat ticket and boarded the island early in the morning, starting the 'Jiming Island' trekking mode! Known as a gem of nature, Jiming Island attracts countless tourists to explore its magnificent landscape. Although it is the smallest island in Shandong, the treasure island has several popular tourist spots (award-winning architecture). From the moment you board the passenger ship, the journey to Jiming Island is a novel experience. The sea and the sky are the same color, which is refreshing, and what is even more surprising is the seagulls that follow the ship all the way, but there are not many seagulls here and they do not eat food. Even so, it is a good experience to watch the rolling waves and circling seagulls while blowing the sea breeze. Upon landing on Jiming Island, the first thing that catches your eye is the blue sea and sky. The blue sea water shines under the sunlight, reflecting the sky. The beach is soft and delicate, as if inviting people to walk barefoot and feel the breeze. The reefs and rocks along the coast form a spectacular coastline, and each rock carries the traces of time, as if telling an ancient story. After landing on the island, follow the clockwise tour, go up the hill along the ramp from the dock, first visit the 'Cliff Library', and then the 'Cliff Church', 'Cliff Cafe', etc.

Come to Weihai and Rongcheng to experience the romance of summer🏖️! This 3-day, 2-night route lets you enjoy unbeatable sea views and check in at popular spots. Save it now🌟~ Day 1: 📍 Xiyin Seaview Homestay: Located right next to the bustling Torch Eighth Street, with the sea just outside your window and large floor-to-ceiling windows. Wake up to the call of seagulls and the orange-scented sunset summer! The location is perfect! The nearby International Seawater Bathing Beach has super fine sand—definitely go barefoot and feel it👣 Arrive at the hotel in the afternoon, change into slippers and stroll along Torch Eighth Street, order a cold drink, enjoy a beautiful sunset on the Golden Coast, and then feast on seafood barbecue as night falls. 📍 Maotoushan No. 2 Viewing Platform: Especially romantic at sunset🌄 (Tip: The mountain path is a bit steep, so wear flat shoes.) There is a coffee shop near the viewing platform with an unbeatable sea view that will amaze you. Search on Gaode: 108 Seaview Homestay (Maotoushan branch). Below the coffee shop is the Lingya Travel Gate, a great photo spot that requires a purchase to take pictures! Day 2: 📍 Dongfang Seaweed Hotel: Waking up to the feeling of the sea is amazing! The rooms are super large and fully equipped, each with a private yard. It’s very quiet and cool for summer. The hotel’s seafood porridge is incredibly fresh~ 📍 Jiming Island: Taking a boat to the island feels great! Remember to bring some bread to feed the seagulls🕊️. There are fishermen selling sausages; the seagulls are well-trained and will snatch the sausages instantly and aggressively, so watch out for bird droppings[Trick]. The fishing village scenery on the island is also very photogenic, with many unique shops. Every street corner is a scenic spot. I made my first lacquer fan here—it’s beautiful. You can spend a whole day on Jiming Island. If you have time in the evening, go to Naxianghai to watch the sunset. If you have more time, spend an extra day at Naxianghai. It’s definitely worth it!!! 📍 Naxianghai Tourist Area: This area has an ultra-long sandy coastline. It’s recommended to rent an electric scooter to ride around the island🛵 📍 Diamond Beach Bathing Area: The sand is as fine as flour, and the water is crystal clear. If you want to take Instagram-worthy photos, this is the place📸 📍 Seaweed Houses: Unique fishing village architecture in Rongcheng. The lighting at night is especially dreamy✨ (There are many seafood stalls nearby, and freshly caught oysters are a must-try) Day 3: 📍 Shendiao Mountain Wildlife Park: The largest coastal wildlife park in Asia! You can not only see animals but also enjoy unbeatable sea views. It’s recommended to bring your own snacks🥪 (There are small alpacas in the park you can feed, super cute~) The park has a super long slide that’s a lot of fun, and adults can lie down on it too! 🍴 Food Recommendations: - Weihai: Mackerel dumplings, stir-fried cuttlefish with rice cakes, steamed sea urchin egg custard - Rongcheng: Sea cucumber rice, abalone porridge, fisherman's mixed fish stew ⛱️ Practical Tips: 1. July to August is peak season; book accommodation at least one month in advance 2. Bring a jacket; there’s a big temperature difference between morning and evening by the sea 3. Sunscreen + sunglasses + hat are essential; the UV rays by the sea are very strong 4. It’s recommended to drive or hire a car, as public transportation is inconvenient for some spots
