In the hot June, I set foot on such a small island, some strange and familiar. The sun shone and kissed every inch of my skin, and the skirt fluttered in the cool sea breeze. Flowers and birds, it touched the softest area of my heart, making my distant blue and white dreams at your fingertips. I have always been obsessed with blue and white. I wanted to go to Santorini several times and I didn't get it in the end. In recent years, the island winds have prevailed, and domestic tourists are keen on Southeast Asian islands, but they ignore the beautiful islands around us. A TV series "Ode to Joy 2" let me know that there is such a beautiful and romantic island in Zhoushan. From a distance, the countless high and low blue and white houses on the island will produce species. The illusion is like walking into the blue and white world of Santorini. A few days of slow life on the island, walking through the streets in the afternoon, walking to the beach in the evening, passing the cool sea breeze, not only the seductive scenery that penetrates the soul, but also You want a cool summer.

Huaniao Island was made famous by the TV series Ode to Joy 2, starring Liu Tao. As a result, ferry tickets to the island are hard to come by every summer. I wanted to visit, so I chose the off-season during this period of fluctuating temperatures between warm and cold. However, the sea is often foggy in spring, and the ferry service was suspended this morning. Fortunately, I managed to hitch a ride on a fishery administration vessel at Shenjiaqiao Wharf on Xiaoyangshan Island. This special trip allowed me to visit Huaniao Island, located at the northernmost tip of the Shengsi Islands. This marked the beginning of my journey to the northernmost islands of Zhejiang Province. As the steady fishery administration vessel gradually approached the small island, I could make out the outline of the fishing village nestled in the milky white fog, rising up the mountain in layers. As the fog shifted, the blue and white houses looked like celestial pavilions floating in the clouds. The ship docked before the morning mist had cleared. The moment I stepped onto the pier, I felt the dampness of the stone slabs beneath my feet and the salty, grassy scent in the air. Huaniao Island looked like a light ink wash painting on xuan paper. After a sumptuous seafood lunch, the fog dispersed, and the sunlight awakened the colors of the island. I embraced this small island, named for its bird-like shape and abundance of wildflowers. Huaniao Island is adorably small. It takes only 45 minutes to walk from south to north, but the hospitable host still arranged for a scenic electric cart for me. Along the island's only road, "Mata Line," heading northwest, the mountains and sea complement each other, and wildflowers sway in the spring breeze along the cliffs. This renovated scenic highway, adorned with eight viewing platforms with a love theme, offers picturesque views at every turn. At the end of the road stands a striking black and white cylindrical building—the "national treasure," Huaniao Lighthouse, originally built in 1870. Its beam reaches 24 nautical miles and remains an essential navigation marker for ships entering and exiting the Yangtze River estuary. This lighthouse, the largest in the Far East, was built by the British during the Qing Dynasty and is now a national key cultural relic protection site. The black and white tower stands out against the red frame of China National Geographic. As the sun began to set, I strolled to the entrance of Huaniao Village. The blue and white guesthouses are scattered in an orderly fashion, with pink sightseeing buses shuttling between them, resembling a romantic scene from Santorini, Greece. The popular "Village Entrance" cafe is a perfect place to relax. I ordered a latte, sat on the terrace, and gazed at the windmills and the azure sea in the distance. The warm spring sun cast a golden filter over the fishing port. Continuing up the winding path, I rounded a bend and suddenly saw a white piano placed on a water-separated platform at the edge of the cliff, its lid open, facing the vast East China Sea. My companion tried playing a tune, and the sound of the piano blended with the sound of the waves, creating an inexplicably harmonious melody. At this moment, in my eyes, Huaniao Island was a place where one could "face the sea, with spring flowers blossoming." It was a blend of the steadfastness of the century-old lighthouse and the advancements of new technology, the laid-back atmosphere of the fishing village cafe and the vibrancy of art exhibitions, and the romance of the azure waves whispering to the Milky Way. On this exquisite little island, everything exists in perfect harmony, neither ostentatious nor hidden, just like the island itself in the morning mist, looming yet distinct.

At the easternmost tip of the Zhoushan archipelago lies a hidden maritime wonderland made up of over 400 islands—the Shengsi Islands! 🏝️ Here, you'll find not only China's easternmost cliff sunrise but also deserted villages overtaken by lush greenery.

🌊 Transportation Guide: Getting to the island is like passing a level, but it's worth it! Major transportation: From Shanghai: Navigate to Shenjiawan Pier and take a direct boat (departs at 12:10, arrives in about 2 hours) 1. It is recommended to contact the guesthouse in advance to purchase boat tickets, after all, "book a room before boarding" is the rule of the game. Other areas in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai: Take the high-speed train to Ningbo/Hangzhou, transfer to the bus to Zhoushan Sanjiang Pier, and then take a boat to Shengsi for transfer (don't panic, just treat it as a sea island version of the "matryoshka doll" experience). Self-driving party: Park your car in the Shenjiawan Pier parking lot and board the island lightly. After all, even electric scooters are shyly forbidden from renting on the island, and you can only measure it with your legs. Island transportation: The 5-kilometer "Matta Line" seaside trail is the C position, with the fishing village's blue and white houses on the left and the ink paintings of a thousand islands on the sea on the right. The sea breeze comes with its own navigation function. You can take a minibus to the lighthouse (CNY 35/person), but it is more recommended to walk—after all, every step is a material for Moments! 🏡 Accommodation Guide: Homestays are limited edition blind boxes The number of homestays on the island is scarcer than the fluorescent sea. It is recommended to book 1 month in advance! Popular players include: Wuma Inn: Facing the sea, the floor-to-ceiling windows contract the entire East China Sea sunrise, suitable for "lying flat" players. Yunxi Seaview Homestay: Terrace hammock + infinity pool, taking photos and posting them can harvest 99+ "lemon essence" comments. Miss Wu's Home: A gathering place for literary and artistic youths, the bookstore and coffee fragrance heal those with choice phobia. Booking secrets: The hand speed must be fast, the posture must be handsome, and the peak season price may make you suspect "Did you see an extra zero". 🌸 Attractions List: Island Magic Timetable Fluorescent Sea (limited from May to October): Explore Nanwan Beach at night, the waves come with "blue tears" special effects, as if stepping on a starry sky (it is recommended to silently recite the spell: go away, light pollution!). Huaniao Lighthouse: The first lighthouse in the Far East, climb to the top at sunset and watch the sunset bake the sea into caramel color, and the romantic value will be directly recharged to 2026. Buddha Hand Stone Sunrise: Rush to the east of the island at 5 am, wait for the first ray of light to pierce the sea, and take a photo with the seabirds on the reef (Warm reminder: Bedtime anger will be cleared by the sea breeze with one click). Matta Line Walking: The 5-kilometer trail connects fishing villages, mountains, and cliffs. It is recommended to wear a white dress and instantly become the heroine of "Ode to Joy" (same location, the crew's same filter is free to use). Lighthouse Village Slow Life: Watch the old woman drying the net perform "fishing net art", and the cat dozing in the corner knows more about "lying flat philosophy" than you. ✨ Practical Tips: Island Survival Rules Sun protection level: SPF50+ starting, ultraviolet rays are more persistent than the ex, tanning only takes a song time. Luggage philosophy: Lighten up! Lighten up! After all, you have to carry a tripod to chase the sunrise, carry a skirt to avoid the waves, and carry a power bank to continue taking photos. Metaphysics warning: The appearance of the fluorescent sea depends on fate, south wind + water temperature 20℃ + no moonlight = the best trigger conditions (it is recommended to worship the "Sea God Circle of Friends" before departure). Summary: The beauty of Huaniao Island depends 30% on the weather, 70% on luck, and the remaining 90% depends on—getting up early! After all, the sunrise here is more punctual than the worker's alarm clock, and the fluorescent sea is more dreamy than the pie drawn by the boss. Bring your guide and have a 48-hour love affair with the East China Sea!
