Date: 20231211-20231212 Where is the boundary between the Pearl River and the South China Sea? It could be Lingdingyang, or the Wanshan Archipelago, or more specifically - the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge? On a moving ship, if you can see this huge bridge on both sides, then, it is also under your feet. Guishan Island is known as the gateway to Wanshan, administratively belonging to Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, and we stayed in Guishan Town, Guishan Village. The homestay is on a high place, and the foot of the mountain next to it is Wen Tianxiang Square, I like the look of this national hero with deep hatred. Then walk south along the coastal road, passing through the busiest places on this small island one by one, including the market, the dock, the customs... At dusk, golden light covers the mountains, windmills, and ships on the sea. The sun went down, and we just walked to No. 1 dike, between two lighthouses, one high and one low. In addition to Guishan Village, Guishan Town also has a Guihai Village, which locals call Fisherman's Village and Hakka Village respectively. The triangular land where the two villages meet is the CBD of this town, with several restaurants and shops. On the way to Guishan Ship Memorial Park the next morning, I inadvertently looked back and saw the homestay last night. I saw the green top of the stone in the morning, and I remembered watching the stars at night. This island was originally called Garbage Tail Island. In memory of the soldiers who sacrificed here in the early days of liberation, it was renamed to its current name. The lighthouse on No. 2 dike is red, corresponding to the green of No. 1 dike, guarding the entrance and exit of the island. If there was such a good harbor back then, would the Guishan ship still be sunk? Fortunately, we live in a peaceful era and can eat seafood for two consecutive meals. The seawater here is not the clearest, and the content on the sea surface is complicated: there are many ships coming and going, and there are all kinds of tonnages; you can see Hong Kong, Macau, and Zhuhai; and there is a large row of wind power generator sets. But I think we will come again, to eat delicious and cheap seafood; to see the most complete sunset, the liveliest sea!

🏠Accommodation: Because we were going to Macau, we chose to stay in a hotel near Gongbei Port. In fact, it is very convenient to take a taxi in Zhuhai. If you are not going to Macau, I feel it is more convenient to book a hotel by the sea. Day 1⃣️: Going to Guishan Island as an islander We set off in the morning to Xiangzhou Wharf and took a boat to Guishan Island. 🉑️Follow the Xiangzhou Port public account to get the boat departure time. The ticket price is 1⃣️0⃣️0⃣️ yuan, and it takes about fifty minutes to arrive. If you get seasick, you can stick a seasickness patch half an hour in advance. As a native of Guizhou, I get seasick badly, but luckily there are vomit bags on the boat, and seasickness patches. Guishan Island is not big, you can choose to take a sightseeing car or ride a bicycle. Lazy people are advised to choose a sightseeing car. We returned to Zhuhai by boat in the evening, and when we returned around five and a half, we encountered a super beautiful sunset, but we were already on the boat at that time, so we could only admire it through the glass. It is recommended that friends who go can wait for the sunset and then return after watching. Day 2⃣️: Zhuhai Coastal Bicycle Circuit Tour The scenic spots along the way include Lovers' Middle Road, Love Post Office, Seaside Swimming Field, Zhuhai Fisher Girl, City Balcony, and Sun Moon Shell Grand Theater. 🚴You can rent a shared bicycle for the circuit, stop or continue at any time, freely. You can also choose a sightseeing bus, but I prefer to ride a bicycle. In the afternoon, go to Beishan Mansion to enjoy afternoon tea and lunch. I highly recommend visiting the "Old Things Warehouse" inside, which is very interesting. 🍽️Eat: Because my friend and I are not foodies, we basically eat whatever we encounter on the road. Didn't go out of our way to find. Probably ate the more famous ones: Tuiji Shenji The taste is average. Zhuhai's famous oyster stewed chicken, because I don't eat stewed chicken, so I didn't eat it. 🚗Transportation: Basically, my friend and I took a taxi or Didi Because the last day was a night flight back, I didn't want to drag my luggage around, so I rented a car for a day. The luggage is left in the car, which is very convenient. The car was delivered to the hotel, and the car was returned at the airport, which is very convenient. And the roads in Zhuhai are wide, and driving is quite comfortable. Parking in Zhuhai is also quite convenient, but the parking fee is a bit expensive.

A mountain kid from Guizhou, I really get seasick when I'm on a boat. I wanted to be a happy islander for a day, but in the end, I became a seasick islander. It starts with seasickness and ends with seasickness. ☀️Itinerary: Depart from Xiangzhou Wharf in Zhuhai and return to Zhuhai on the same day. Depart to Xiangzhou Wharf in the morning, 🉑️follow the Xiangzhou Port public account to get the departure time. 🎫The ticket price is about 1⃣️0⃣️0⃣️ yuan, and the journey takes about 50 minutes. If you get seasick like me, you can put on a seasickness patch half an hour in advance, and there are also vomit bags on the boat. Guishan Island is not big, you can choose to take a sightseeing car or ride a bicycle to play, because my friend and I are lazy, so we chose the sightseeing car. There are sightseeing cars and bicycles at the port after getting off the boat. 🧸Tour route: ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 🗼Lighthouse: Located near the pier, you can see it as soon as you get off the boat, and there is a coffee shop next to it. You can have a cup of coffee there after a round and enjoy the sunset. 🏖Dolphin Bay Beach: I had high expectations for the beach before I went, thinking about the sun, beach, drinking coconut water, and all kinds of enjoyment, but the actual experience was: the beach was under maintenance, so I just took a rough look. 🏡Little Fish Village: There is a popular zebra crossing here for photo taking. 🕴Guishan Ship Memorial Park: This is the most beautiful place in the whole journey, don't forget to enjoy it. The seaside plank road is very photogenic. 🏠Accommodation: There are places to stay on the island, but my friend and I chose to return to Zhuhai. In the evening, take a boat back to Zhuhai City. If time permits, I suggest waiting a bit, admiring the beautiful sunset, and then returning. When we left at about five and a half, we encountered the sunset. Unfortunately, we could only enjoy it through the ship's window, but it was still unforgettable. So, if you go to Guishan Island, you might as well wait for the sunset before leaving. Guishan Island may be small, but it also has its unique scenery and experience.

The island in winter is so comfortable that it makes you not want to leave. Believe me! If you think the sea in Zhuhai city is already beautiful, But when you come to Guishan Island, you will find that the beauty here is directly x10. The island is not very large in area, It is said that it takes about 5 hours to walk around. We took a light hiking route of about 6km in total. The blue bay, The red and white lighthouse, the winding island road, Under the clear sky, every frame is as heart-stirring as a youth movie. Zhuhai | Guishan Island Depart from Xiangzhou Port | About 50 minutes to arrive No admission fee | Ferry ticket from ¥85 🚶🏻‍♂️Hiking Strategy Route: Start from the tourist center, head north along Guihai Avenue, turn right at the Cultural Park towards Dolphin Bay Beach, go uphill, follow the main road to the mountaintop viewing platform, go down the mountain from the viewing platform, and return along the island road to Beishan Reservoir. Guihai Avenue is suitable for watching the sunset, the viewing platform and the island road are suitable for watching the sunrise, so both morning and afternoon are suitable. Hiking + photography + sightseeing, about 3 hours, there are uphill roads but no difficulty, the whole journey is on concrete roads, very easy to walk. Before reaching Beishan Reservoir, you will find the road ahead is closed, but there is a small path on the right front that you can go through.

The viewing platform is the highest point of the entire route, where you can overlook the winding island road and the lighthouse at sea below. The downhill road from the viewing platform ends at the sea, with trees on both sides, it's my favorite part of the road. The island road is suitable for aerial photography, with mountains on one side and the sea on the other, just like a screenshot from a road movie. Guishan Island

Recently, the exorbitant airfares to Sanya are really outrageous. I want to see the sea during the Spring Festival without the crowds. Fortunately, my cousin in Zhuhai recommended a small island that locals love to visit. 🏝 Zhuhai Gui Shan Island The number of visitors to the island is limited every day. It's not overdeveloped. The lighthouse sunset is absolutely beautiful. It's perfect for a two-day weekend getaway. —— 🏠 Accommodation You can choose between homestays or hotels. Most homestays are located halfway up the mountain with nice sea views, and both Liyuan/Banshan Shizhu look good on site. We stayed at Liyuan, with a double room for 568 during the Spring Festival, and a family room for 890, which is quite pricey. Additionally, there are hotels opposite the pier, which are very conveniently located. —— 🦞 Dining There are many seafood restaurants opposite the pier and along the coast, with famous stalls like Jiang Xing, and sea view ones like Xian Ye, etc. We ate at Jiang Xing, the taste was okay, and the price seems to be uniform across the island, with prawns at 98 yuan per half kilo, and stir-fries ranging from 35 to 60 yuan each. The more picturesque restaurants by the sea charge the same. —— 🏕 Attractions The island is quite small, and you can tour around it for 30 yuan. Here are some recommended spots: Yiwan Beach No.1 Breakwater Gui Shan Lighthouse Park Gui Shan Warship Memorial Park Wen Tianxiang Square The coastal walkway from the lighthouse to the Gui Shan Warship Memorial Park is also beautiful, great for a stroll. The area around the lighthouse is particularly photogenic, especially for watching the sunset, so plan to spend more time there. —— 🚢 Transportation 1 Ferry Buy tickets from the official account 'Xiangzhou Port' or at the Xiangzhou Port pier on site. Adult standard cabin is 100 yuan, first class is 130 yuan, and there are two VIP rooms available for an additional 400 yuan upgrade, which allows access to the deck for the view. 2 Community Vehicle After arriving on the island, there are community vehicles available, 30 yuan for the west circuit and 60 yuan for the east. You can add the driver's WeChat and he'll come whenever you call; we paid 30 yuan per trip for our group. Additionally, there are tandem bicycles for rent at 60 yuan per hour. —— 📝 Notes 1 The food options on the island are limited and pricey, seafood is worth a try, but tea and coffee are just average. 2 Fireworks are not allowed on the boat, we wanted to set off fireworks by the sea, but they were confiscated during the security check. 3 The ferry ride takes 50 minutes, and it can be quite shaky when it's windy, so it's a good idea to use motion sickness patches in advance. 4 The island is small, and the last boat leaves after 9 pm, so it's possible for people from nearby areas to make a day trip.

Every time I go to Zhuhai, I end up playing in Macau! I had no idea that Zhuhai also had islands to play on, and not just one island!! Then I chose Guishan Island between Dong'ao Island, Wailingding Island, and Guishan Island, not for any particular reason, just for the 'Little Kamakura' of Guangdong! Guishan Island is quite small, if you're just going to check in and take photos, one day is completely enough! I went there and back on the same day, arriving around 10 am and returning to Zhuhai around 5 or 6 pm! There was plenty of time! When I went there, there were really few people, mostly island residents, a very niche island! You can take photos however you want! If you want to experience the island atmosphere, you can stay there for a night. There are many homestays, but I feel like the facilities are not that great! After arriving on the island, you can rent a bicycle🚲, or take the island's community vehicle which is very cheap, just a few yuan. I suggest that as soon as you get off the boat, turn right! Go straight to take photos! Go to the lighthouse to take pictures. There's a beach next to the lighthouse, and even swings to play on! It's really good for taking photos hahaha Then you can walk to the Guishan Warship Memorial Park to take pictures of the rocks!! It's really photogenic!! Staring at the sea🌊 is really comfortable Girls, invite your friends to experience the island life of Guangdong's 'Little Kamakura'~

| A spacious and worry-free leisure island. Guishan Island | A spacious and worry-free leisure island 🏝️🌞 This Spring Festival, I decided to take my child to Zhuhai Changlong for fun, and I wanted to experience the island style by the way. Therefore, before departure, I carefully studied various choices of Zhuhai's outlying islands, and finally my favorite was 'Guishan Island'. In terms of scenery, although the nearby outlying islands all have good scenery, theoretically, the longer the ship time, the more beautiful the sea view. Therefore, I chose Guishan Island with a slightly shorter ship time to ensure that the beautiful sea view is not covered by the long voyage. 🚢🏞️ Considering the crowd during the Spring Festival, I avoided some of the most popular islands and chose the relatively quiet Guishan Island. As for food, my husband and I are foodies, so the local seafood became a key factor in our decision. Guishan Island was originally a fishing village, the seafood quality is good and the price is relatively low, which is simply heaven for us two foodies! 🦐🍤 【About Transportation】 Xiangzhou and Hengqin have schedules, but considering more schedules and more flexible time arrangements, I chose Xiangzhou. It is close to Riyuebei, and can be played in series. Hengqin is more suitable for choosing Changlong to play, and it is relatively convenient to leave. 🚗🌐 【About Photography】 On Guishan Island, you can take a sightseeing car for a tour of the island, and there are too many shooting positions along the way. For families like us who walk around with children, this way is more relaxed and friendly. Energetic tourists can also rent bicycles, enjoy the sea view along the west line, and then hike up the mountain to overlook the beautiful sea view. 📸🚲 【About Food】 Our days on the island are all about buying seafood, and then going to the store for processing. After observing for two days, I found that the seafood stalls in the market are all very fat and beautiful, and the prices are relatively friendly. The freshest and most amazing discovery this time is the mudfish and golden label fish, which are simply mouth-watering! 🍣🐟 【About Walking with Children】 For families with plenty of time, it is recommended to rent a multi-person bicycle, ride to Dolphin Bay Beach, and play with sand with children. Families with tight time can choose the small beach next to the pier, close to the lighthouse. Especially in the evening, while the children are playing with sand, adults can also enjoy the sunset and the cool sea breeze, which is very comfortable. 🚴‍♀️🌅
