The summer breeze has reached Qiangjiao Town
Summer, how can you not go to the seaside? Come to Ninghai, an overlooked city. Although it's not very famous, there are still plenty of places to enjoy, especially Qiangjiao Town, known as the 'Little Jeju Island'.
📖 Itinerary: It takes about half an hour to drive from downtown Ninghai to Qiangjiao Town. Not only tourists from other places come here, but also locals. Parking spaces are naturally scarce. Coming after 3 pm is a good idea to avoid peak parking times and to watch the sunset.
✅ Must-visit spots: The seaside town is not big, and the commercial street is just a short one, but it's nice to stroll around with various snacks, games, and seafood for sale. There are two coffee shops, one at each end of the street, which are the perfect spots to rest. Both have different styles, but both require queuing.
☕️ How to choose a coffee shop:
The one at the beginning of the street is called 'Again', where you order on the first floor, and the second floor is an open terrace with lots of popular sofas and rocking chairs. Seats are on a first-come, first-served basis, and you can sit down as long as you consume something. There's a small sandbox at the entrance, suitable for babies to play in the sand.

The one at the end of the street is the popular 'Folk Uncle', a container-style coffee shop that also sells beer🍻. This shop has an excellent location, right by the coastline, with a beach area, beach chairs, and small tables set up for great photo opportunities. Further up is the popular S-curve road with nice scenery.

In fact, there's also a mobile coffee stand near the middle of the street, close to the pier. Spending there allows you to go down to the pier, where there's said to be an exclusive photo spot, but the owner sets up the stand in a laid-back manner, so it's a matter of luck if you'll encounter it🍀
🍜 Must-eat delicacies: Eating seafood by the sea is a must here, and although it's the off-season for fishing, some small seafood is still very fresh. Razor clams are a local specialty, as well as mantis shrimp, which you definitely shouldn't miss.
✏️ Practical Tips: The beaches in Qiangjiao Town are not sandy but rocky, so be careful to avoid scratches. There are regular boats from the pier to the islands, and if you have enough time, you can go there for a visit. If you don't get seasick, you can also charter a boat for fishing. The seafood you catch is yours to keep, but it's not recommended to go out to sea during the fishing ban period.
Beautiful islands, currently only on Hengshan Island, recommend slow tourists to go, looking forward to the development of surrounding islands, the sea is green, which is not easy to see around Ningbo.
Not yet fully developed, but the scenery is good! You can rent a boat to go to the island or go to the sea to catch seafood! Yachts and seafood stalls near the dock can enjoy seafood while watching the seascape!
I read a lot of articles recommending here, so I decided to come and see. I really don't know how these recommended articles were invented. I'm really sorry for my conscience, I'm sorry for the oil money. When you talk about the beach, the coast here is a mudflat. Some small items are repaired on the shore. The following is a mess and it is all garbage. Second, there is no decent seafood restaurant here, no seafood market, food stalls. Several restaurants that can be seen on the Gaode map are either closed or closed. Everyone thought there was seafood at the pier. That is the old idea decades ago. Now the logistics are developed and the division of labor is clear. The fish caught at sea has long been pulled to major trading markets by transport ships. Real fishing boats keep fishing at sea, waiting for the return of the port is empty boats, the town's residents to eat sea goods is not easy. If you don't believe you can go to the local vegetable market to see. Three said air, there is a Guohua power plant, a huge chimney, constantly draining the exhaust gas from the sky, anyway, enough for you to smoke. Four said accommodation, here is basically a homestay, basically no matter how early, find a roadside store to solve it. Okay, the brakes...
Now that the temples on Hengshan Island have been built, boating used to be a good way to play. Walk around the island and enjoy the beautiful scenery at sea. If the weather is good, you can see far away. It is worth recommending.
Few people, good scenery, is the best experience of this tour, suitable for a slow-paced holiday, the local boatman is generous, afraid of being blocked will not share the contact number, you can trust me.
