❤️“You simply must visit Nan'ao Island, feel the sea breeze on your face, and gaze at the azure waters.” On this trip, I finally journeyed to this dreamlike place of blue seas and skies, returning with a heart full of joy and tranquility. ✅Day 1: Encountering the Most Beautiful Sunrise🌅 We chose to stay near Qing'ao Bay° so we could head straight to the beach to watch the sunrise🌅 the next morning. At 5 am, the first light appeared on the horizon, gradually transforming into a vibrant orange-red. Gentle waves lapped at the shore as the sun🌞 slowly rose above the sea, painting the sky and ocean in golden hues. It was truly breathtaking. ✅Day 2: Cycling Around the Island, Chasing the Wind and Admiring the Sea Rent a scooter and embark on a journey around the island – it's the best way to experience the charm of Nan'ao Island. Ride along the coastline, feeling the sea breeze on your face, and taking in the picturesque scenery. Pass by the Changshanwei Lighthouse, its red and white tower standing tall against the backdrop of the azure sea. Every photo you take here looks like a scene from a Japanese film. 🎉At noon, enjoy a seafood feast on the island. I recommend Yumin Xincun Seafood Restaurant. Their steamed grouper🐟 is incredibly tender, and the salt and pepper mantis shrimp🦐 are crispy and flavorful. The prices are also very reasonable.🎉In the afternoon, we visited the Back Garden Ecological Tourism Village, strolling through the woods, breathing in the fresh air, and overlooking the entire island. It was a relaxing and enjoyable experience. ✅Day 3: Waiting for a Sunset by the Sea🌇 After waking up naturally, we visited the Sanchuangya Lighthouse. This uniquely shaped lighthouse stands on the reefs by the sea, surrounded by magnificent scenery. In the afternoon, find a beach chair by the sea, order a coconut drink, and quietly wait for the sunset🌇. As the sun sets, the afterglow paints the sea surface, creating shimmering waves. The whole world is enveloped in a gentle warmth. ❤️Transportation Guide ✅If you're driving, cross the Nan'ao Bridge onto the island. The scenery along the way is stunning. ✅You can also take buses 161 or 162. Once on the island, renting a scooter is the most convenient way to get around, allowing you to stop and admire the scenery at any time. ❤️Accommodation Recommendations There are many guesthouses near Qing'ao Bay. Sea-view rooms offer stunning views, and you can fall asleep to the sound of the waves at night. ❤️Travel Tips ✅1. Be sure to wear sunscreen, as the UV rays are strong by the sea. ✅2. Check the weather forecast in advance. Nan'ao Island is even more beautiful on sunny days. ✅3. Those with seafood allergies should be mindful of their diet. ❤️Nan'ao Island is truly a place you'll want to visit again and again. Here, time seems to slow down. Plan your trip now!
