💡 Tips

  • The beaches here are much less crowded than in Shengjin; convenient for a quiet day at the sea.
  • Make sure to bring an umbrella and water, as organized beach bars are often spread far apart.
  • The water is very shallow for a long stretch, making the beach great for young children.
  • The sunsets are completely unobstructed; make sure to stay on the beach until the evening.
  • Protect yourself from mosquitoes in the evening, drawn in by the nearby wetlands.
