Must-read before visiting Nan'ao Island! I'm afraid your spending habits might be challenged.

🚗 Transportation: - Self-driving: From Shantou City, you can reach Nan'ao Island directly via the Nan'ao Bridge. The toll is 96 yuan, but it's free during holidays. - Public transportation: You can first arrive in Shantou, then take bus 161k from Shantou to Nan'ao Island. However, buses are infrequent, so pay attention to the departure times. 🕙 Opening hours: Open year-round, 24 hours a day. 🎫 Tickets: Nan'ao Island itself is free to enter. Some attractions on the island require separate tickets, such as the Huanghuashan Dajianshan Forest Park, which costs 20 yuan. 🌟 Highlights: - Beautiful natural scenery: Nan'ao Island boasts blue seas and clear skies, with stunning scenery. Qing'ao Bay, known as "China's most beautiful coastline," has gentle slopes and is perfect for swimming. - Unique cultural landscape: The island features the Zongbingfu, a historical exhibition hall showcasing the island's coastal defense during the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as large trees planted during Zheng Chenggong's time. - Abundant specialty cuisine: Nan'ao Island offers fresh and delicious seafood, as well as many local snacks, such as fried fish skin, seafood porridge, and Chaoshan beef balls. Here's a one-day itinerary for your reference: Nan'ao Bridge ➡ Changwei Lighthouse ➡ Qianaowan Lighthouse ➡ Sancong Cliff Lighthouse ➡ Wind Farm ➡ Qing'ao Bay ➡ Zhuqi Bay ➡ Jinyin Island ➡ Zongbingfu ➡ Zoumapu Village ➡ Nan'ao Bridge 💣 Tourist traps to avoid: - Accommodation: During peak season, some homestays and hotels raise their prices, and rooms can be hard to find. It is recommended to book in advance and choose reputable accommodations. Also, confirm the room's orientation and view to avoid obstructed views. - Transportation: The roads on the island are relatively narrow, and some sections lack clear traffic signs. First-time visitors can easily miss important turns or attraction entrances. Drive carefully and plan your route in advance. Also, some drivers engage in irregular practices, such as overcharging or deviating from the agreed route. When choosing transportation, be sure to inquire about prices and services beforehand to avoid being scammed. - Dining: Some restaurants overcharge tourists. When enjoying seafood, choose reputable restaurants and ask about prices beforehand to avoid being overcharged. Don't follow street vendors who try to lure you into small restaurants. They often attract tourists with low prices but then push expensive dishes, ultimately costing you more. - Shopping: When buying souvenirs or local products, pay attention to price and quality. Avoid being attracted by high prices or low-quality goods. 😘 Nan'ao Island is definitely worth a visit! As long as you plan ahead and avoid the tourist traps, you'll have a great time! 🎉 Remember to like and save this post! 💕
