The Zhanjiang Red-billed Gull Cruise is so worth it! The boat is very clean, the staff are very enthusiastic, and they will help you take pictures~ The route design is great. You can see the Bay Bridge and Sands Bay along the way, and red-billed gulls are flying overhead. Every shot you take is a blockbuster! The sunset in the evening is breathtakingly beautiful, and the sea breeze is particularly comfortable. The ticket price is not expensive, the whole journey takes about 1 hour, and both the elderly and children can enjoy it. Next time my friends come to Zhanjiang, I will definitely take them to experience it again! Highly recommended to friends who want to check in Zhanjiang coastline👍

There is nothing amazing about this undeveloped fishing village island. It is just ordinary. Find a beach homestay to relax and stay for two days. Children can play on the beach for a day. The beach is shallow and swimming is safe. The island is accessible only by electric bicycles.


The French-style street is located on Binhai West 1st Road. It is built around five French historical buildings: Xiying Post and Telecommunications Building, the former site of the French Legation in Guangzhou Bay, the former site of the French Police Station in Guangzhou Bay, the Vidor Catholic Church (also known as Xiashan Catholic Church), and the former site of the Banque de l'Indochine. Combined with the historical and cultural background of the Guangzhou Bay period, it is a French-style commercial pedestrian street with local Zhanjiang characteristics that integrates historical culture, food, art, fashion, and romance. Through the transformation of the pedestrian street, Zhanjiang has formed a unique city impression and cultural connotation.

A main road on one side of the seaside park with four lanes in both directions, lined with coconut trees, very tropical. This is the original French Concession, so | The former site of the French Office in Xinwei^ and other historical buildings are preserved here, with a good French cultural heritage. It can be seen that the government is determined to develop this style street. It is about one kilometer long. Many sculptures are set up to increase the fun and viewing points. It's a pity that it always feels a bit unsuitable. The shops along the street are either sublet or sold. It's a pity that there are fewer people.

Zhanjiang's most beautiful free attraction, the "Seaview Corridor", stretches for several kilometers and is divided into three parts: north, middle and south. All of them are very beautiful. The southernmost section is the "Xiashan Seaview Corridor", which consists of three squares, the famous mangrove plank road, and numerous landscapes. The widest place may be one or two hundred meters. It is the most visible and down-to-earth place, and it is also the locals' favorite place for a stroll in the morning and evening. Coming out of the seaside park, head north along the beach, with green trees on one side and the blue sea on the other. The mangroves are now under urgent protection. There are many newly planted saplings, but unfortunately some people still trample on them at will. There is a group of human dragon dancing sculptures, each carrying a little boy on their shoulders, forming a long dragon. It may be a local custom, and it is very interesting.


The Lanyuewan Hot Spring is located in the Seaside Hotel in the eastern part of Zhanjiang City. It is a rare volcanic rock geothermal hot spring in the city center in the country, originating from deep underground. The seaside volcanic hot spring is based on tropical seaside garden scenery.

The hot spring water is super good! Super good! Super good! It's very comfortable to soak. There is a spa area, a swimming pool, a steam room + stone slabs, and a small pool with better privacy. The hardware facilities are a bit old, but the hot spring water is good! There are also many service staff, who are constantly patrolling, adding spices and so on. Highly recommended to try it! The slippery soak is very satisfying!
