The sea is very clear and the shells are beautiful. The only fly in the ointment is that the beach and the surrounding area are too polluted by tourists. There is garbage everywhere and the smell is not good. I hope that when I have the opportunity to come again, Weizhou Island can be protected better.
Shell Beach ~ Colorful Beach ~ Dishui Danping ~ Nanwan ~ Did not go to Crocodile Mountain, an hour and a half of the journey is all up, whether from the heart or action is rejected [smiling] Picked up a lot of different colors of shells, saw a stranded large jellyfish, natural volcanic geological park, Enjoy the customs of the lives of the islanders... The sea is very clear and the shells are beautiful. The only fly in the ointment is that the beach and the surrounding area are polluted by tourists. It is too serious. There is garbage everywhere and the smell is not good. I hope that when I have the opportunity to come again, Weizhou Island can be protected better.
The boss is very good, help us carry our luggage upstairs, but also upgraded the room type, the recommended round-the-island coffee is super, the scenery is beautiful, but unfortunately the time is too short, there are many places that have not had time to go, and will come to check in next time.
Tickets are issued quickly and affordable. very good. You can book in advance, better than Philippine 🐷, Philippine 🐷 has to confirm by phone, and then manually book tickets. In the future, I still have to pay more attention to Trip.com.
Weizhou Island is a charming island paradise. Stepping on this land, you will be shocked by its pure sea, delicate sandy beaches and magnificent volcanic landscapes. There are not only beautiful sunrises and sunsets, but also unique natural landscapes such as sea erosion holes and colorful beaches, which make people linger. In addition, the seafood cuisine on the island is also a highlight, and the fresh seafood is endless. Weizhou Island's tourism service is also very thoughtful, from accommodation to catering, from transportation to entertainment, can meet the needs of tourists. In short, Weizhou Island is a tourist attraction worth visiting, whether it is natural scenery or humanistic style, will leave a deep impression on you.
The cost of going to the island is very high, the ticket plus the ticket, and the meal is not cheap. Weizhou Island is a town, the sky is blue and the water is clear, and the main transportation on it is a battery car. It is too unfriendly for us who will not ride. Thirty sightseeing cars, in fact, it is expensive, the attractions are not too far away, the price is not unified, and some will shout the price. After staying for two days, the Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area was very beautiful. Dishui Danping played with the sand, picked up hermit crabs and shells. Nanwan watched the beautiful sunset. The weather was not good and the colorful beach did not see the sunrise. Suitable for riding a battery car for a few days slowly.
The interior is clean and tidy, the living facilities are complete, the decoration is relatively new, the stay is more comfortable, the landlord is happy, the communication is pleasant, the room location is very good, you can see the silver beach on the balcony, it is also close to the train station, there are many restaurants and supermarkets around, eating and shopping is very convenient, the experience is very good, I have the opportunity to stay again.
