On Dongshan Island, I encountered the beach of life
🌱 A'shui and Yangzi's road trip this time is to Fujian's second largest island—Dongshan Island.
☘️ Dongshan Island, also known as Ling Island, is nicknamed Butterfly Island due to its shape resembling a butterfly. It is one of the 'Top Ten Most Beautiful Islands in Fujian' and has been a familiar filming location for movies and TV shows such as 'Journey to the West', 'The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea', and 'The Left Ear'.
🍀 'White waves vast connect with the sea, endless sands stretch without boundary. Evening goes and morning comes, washing ceaselessly, thus making the East Sea turn into mulberry fields.'
Excerpt from ——— 'Lang Tao Sha·White waves vast connect with the sea'
I think this poem, which describes the sea's end as the sky and the sky's end as the sea, perfectly captures the magnificent and grand imagery suitable for describing Dongshan Island.
📍Detailed address: Dongshan Island, Dongshan County, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province
🚗Travel tips: Self-drive or charter a car (there is no particularly suitable public transportation for a round-the-island tour).
⏰Best time: From morning till night, because there is really too much to play on Dongshan Island.
👗Outfit suggestions: Beach style | Bohemian style | INS style | Carry slippers with you (there are many water-play spots)
💰Ticket price: There is basically no entrance fee for the whole island, enjoy it to the fullest.
🌟Highlights:
1: The first place I recommend is Jinluan Bay, which is the cleanest beach I have seen in my travels in the past two years. The sand is fine, the water is clear, and standing on the beach with the gentle waves rolling in, you will feel a dizzying sensation as if everything around you is moving backward. I really like it and recommend it to you. It's fun! Must go! Love to go!
2: Nanmen Bay, the filming location of the movie 'The Left Ear', has transformed the entire dam into comfortable farm stays and coffee seats. In the evening, watching the glimmering waves, listening to the sea, and sipping a pot of wine with a few close friends, it feels like even the wind has slowed down.
3: The round-the-island road is indeed picturesque, and each small scenic spot along the way has its own flavor, even if it's just a section of road, just a bridge, or just a rock.
📌Practical tips:
1: When playing around Nanmen Bay, it is recommended to park your car in the large parking lot at the entrance and then rent an electric scooter for a more convenient and comfortable tour.
2: When traveling on the round-the-island road, be prepared for sun protection, as the route is quite long and there will be a lot of time in close contact with ultraviolet rays.
3: To visit the Fish Bone Shoal, find the tide table in advance and match the time to go, so it's less likely to be a wasted trip. If you're too lazy to look it up, you can also ask me for it.
❤️ Having fun is very important when going out! Getting great photos is super important! I am Yangzi, the one who takes you on cloud travels and provides you with strategies. Life is long, and we are on the road!
📷 What is the top-level, absolutely beautiful beach you have visited in the past two years? Share it!
Jinluang Bay, this is a place where you can see the blue sea and blue sky, and a place where you can see the mirror beach. It is more a good place to watch the sunset. A good place that you don't want to go when you come, it is worth slowly experiencing.
Jinluo Bay on Dongshan Island, there are not as many people as Malu Bay, it is best to stay here for one night. In the afternoon, you can pull the net to fish and watch the sunset with the fishermen; you must get up early in the morning to enjoy the unmanned beach and watch the sunrise.
I came without doing my homework. I came to the beach where I went in at 1 pm, but if I want to see the mirror beach, I have to walk 1 or 2 kilometers inside. I asked the landlord to navigate to the Jinluang Bay Bathing Beach. It was close to sunset and low tide. It was good to take pictures at that time. We came again in the afternoon, but the shot was not very good-looking, the mirror was not clear enough, it was a pity
I stayed at the B&B next to Jinluang Bay Beach for two nights. It was so beautiful to watch the sunrise in the morning. In the evening, I walked to the beach. I went to the sea at 5:00. I went swimming. It was not hot at all and it was not cold. The water temperature was just not very dry. It was super affordable to eat seafood stalls on the beach.
Many tourists only know Maluan Bay. They really don’t know that there is a Jinluang Bay beach on the side. Because the government promoted Maluan Bay to the outside at that time, they ignored the cleaner Jinluang Bay, the bonfire party, the net fish house, the motorboat, and the sky are all in Jinluang Bay, which is also a beach. And Maluan Bay does not have these, many tourists have entered the misunderstanding
Very pleasant beach, the best place to watch the sunrise. The sand of the beach is currently the finest sand I have ever experienced. After the wave retreats, there will be a mirror, that is, a mirror beach. The sunrise is perfect. In the most worth visiting place on Dongshan Island, you must pay attention to the time point and pay attention to the weather.
