No. 3 Bathing Beach is one of the main coastal beaches in Rizhao, and it is part of the same long stretch of sandy coastline as the Wanpingkou Bathing Beach to the south. The beach here is wide and flat with fine sand, and the waves are calmer than those around Wanpingkou. Many people come here to swim in the summer. Taking off your shoes to wade in the shallows, building sandcastles with kids, or taking a leisurely stroll along the long coastline are all very relaxing. There is more to do here than just swimming. Water activities include jet skiing, water cycling, and parasailing, which you can choose based on your comfort level. At low tide, you can explore the rocky areas where you can often find small crabs and starfish. The Love Tree, seaside swings, and heart-shaped coconut trees on the beach are popular photo spots, and the sunset is particularly beautiful.Rizhao · 6.2km from downtown

The round trip from Gate 1 to Gate 5 costs 69 yuan, and you can get on and off at each stop. Gate 3 has many popular check-in spots, and Gate 5 is best visited during low tide in the afternoon when the reefs are exposed.

We've had two great times at Fantasy Island; my child loves it. The play area on the second floor, the moving parts, and the little train are all favorites. Sister Rose provided excellent service.

Compared to aquariums in other coastal cities, this one has fewer exhibits and animals. Since we went there because it was raining, I felt it wasn't worth the price. It's okay if you want to have some indoor fun, but I don't think it's worth making a special trip for.

I went directly to the third bathing beach. The beach is very big and the sand is very comfortable. There are many hotels around, both mid-range and high-end. It is also very convenient to eat. The bathing beach is free and the sea water is very clean. It is very good and comfortable to take children there.

The package ticket was really convenient; after redeeming the paper ticket, you could just show it to the staff to pass wherever you wanted. The cable car was a bit slow, but you could see the scenery, including many chestnut trees. The mountain scenery was also quite nice. It was a bit tiring with children, so if you're not in great shape, I suggest you assess your abilities before proceeding. The Grand Canyon is very large, and it's all on foot. By the end, when we sat on the boat, our legs were sore.

Walking into Dongyi Town, it seems like traveling back to the ancient fishing village era. The town is located in Donggang District, Rizhao City, Shandong Province. It is the closest seaside tourist town to the sea in China. It has both quaint buildings and rich folk customs. The town consists of four islands, namely the fishing culture theme island, the folk culture experience island, the exotic culture island and the leisure and entertainment sightseeing island. Strolling on the quaint streets, there are traditional wood carvings and stone carvings on both sides, as if telling the ancient story of Dongyi culture. Seaweed houses are a major feature of the town. The thick seaweed on the roof exudes a natural atmosphere, making people feel the simplicity of fishermen's life. The food street is the most lively place, where delicacies and folk snacks from all over the country are gathered. I tasted the local seafood feast, and the delicious seafood made people aftertaste endlessly. In addition to food, the town also has rich cultural activities, such as traditional handicrafts, folk performances, etc., which make people feel as if they are in a living historical picture scroll. Dongyi Town not only has food and culture, but also romantic seaside scenery. From the town, you can walk to the beach in a few minutes, feel the sea breeze on your face, listen to the sound of the waves, and feel relaxed and happy. This is not only a tourist attraction, but also a place full of life, which makes people linger.
