Shanwei: Red Bay Red Bay is located on the Shalang Peninsula in the east of Shanwei City. It is a coastal tourist destination integrating natural landscape, human history and leisure and entertainment. The arc-shaped beach at the southern end is long and the coastal scenery is beautiful. The northern Cape reefs are varied and there are many cultural monuments. Established Zheng Chenggong Memorial Statue, Guanyin Statue, 18 Luohan Statue and Guanyin Pavilion. The easternmost tip of the peninsula is the "sea castle", which is the tidal power station test tower of the Guangzhou Institute of Energy of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the 1970s. After the experimental site was transferred, it was gradually abandoned, and the name of the "sea castle" was given because of its unique appearance.
The Red Sea Bay is a place that God has blessed us with - the sea water is dazzlingly blue, the beach is as fine as flour, and any photo you take can be used as a mobile phone wallpaper. In summer, it is as lively as cooking dumplings here, with motorboats "thump thump thump" drawing white lines on the sea surface, tourists wearing sunscreen lying under the parasols, and children digging clams with plastic buckets for an afternoon. But you have to know when to choose, and you can enjoy it later in September: the sea water is still warm, but there are fewer people, and you can hear the sound of the waves "clacking" on the beach.
The proprietresses of the food stalls on the shore are all talented. The mantis shrimps that have just been caught are still jumping in the basket, and the steamed shrimps are still curled up when they are served on the table. It's just that the sun is too strong, so the locals only go out in the evening. If a novice goes for a stroll at noon, he will definitely get the same color as the charcoal grilled squid. The best thing is that when the tide is low, there are small crabs hiding in the cracks of the reefs, running faster than the takeaway boy, and you can have fun chasing them for a long time.
To put it bluntly, you can have fun here or lie down here, it all depends on whether you can avoid the crowds. If you come across a sunset sky, sitting on the breakwater and eating iced watermelon, the taste is - I wouldn't trade it for anything!

Staying in the B&B here, less than 300 per night for a double room, more than 70 square meters, first-line sea view room, open the curtains to the sea, but those who have trouble sleeping should choose carefully, the sound of the sea hitting the shore is loud! The scenic area downstairs is built by Poly and is free. The sand is average, but it feels good to walk on the beach!
Here is beautiful like Hainan Island / Phuket, the beach water is clear and the sand is fine, now has not yet entered the summer, has seen many people play water activities during the holidays, the surrounding seafood stalls are very many, the price is quite affordable for Hong Kong people, location convenient! It's no problem to eat and play in the area all day 😄🙌🏻

The ticket price of Shuidishan Hot Spring is reasonable, and there are many types of hot spring pools, especially the infinity pool and the starry sky pool, which are particularly beautiful at night. The service is thoughtful, the facilities are complete, and there are also popular check-in spots for taking photos. The overall experience of playing is very relaxing and comfortable. It is a good place to relieve fatigue and is worth recommending!
Good quality and low price, affordable, with more than 60 pools, surfing area, beach bathing area. A good place for children, family and friends to relax and have a holiday. The breeze is gentle, the mountains are lush, the birds are singing, and the frogs are croaking.

Shanwei Windmill Island does not require tickets, and the natural scenery is amazing! The windmills on the island are picturesque, the sea view is magnificent, and you can take blockbuster photos everywhere. The beach is clean and the sea water is clear, which is suitable for catching the sea and swimming. The experience of playing is leisurely and comfortable. The highlight is the perfect fusion of windmills and sea views, which makes people feel like they are in a fairy tale world. Highly recommended!
Shanwei Windmill Island, known as the "Kirin Cape of Eastern Guangdong", is a peninsula surrounded by the sea on three sides, located at the junction of Red Sea Bay and Jieshi Bay. Large windmills for wind power generation are scattered on the island, forming a dreamlike original ecological beauty with blue sky, white clouds, beach and sea.
The inland sea side of Windmill Island is calm, the beach sand is white, fine and solid, and it is full of shells of various colors because of the sparse population. The beach, sea and windmills here constitute a paradise for photography enthusiasts. Many wedding photography agencies and freelance photographers choose to take pictures here. The dreamy blue sea, white windmills and green grass have become elements in the photo.
The windmill group on the island is one of the few wind power generation groups in Guangdong Province. The height of the windmill is about the same as that of a 15-story building in the city, which is very magnificent. These windmills not only provide clean energy for the island, but also become a beautiful landscape on the island.
Fengche Island has also been the island location for many movies and TV shows, such as "The Waves on the Shore", "South China Sea Tide", "Young Friends", etc., which further proves the charm of this place. In addition, the shallow bay on Fengche Island has become a popular check-in spot in recent years because of its beautiful scenery of the sea trestle and the connection between the mountains and the sea.
In general, Shanwei Fengche Island, with its unique natural scenery and magnificent windmills, has become an ideal place for vacation, photography and experiencing the beauty of nature.
