The area is best known for GXTDG Baishawan (White Sand Bay), a beautiful, crescent-shaped beach with light-colored sand and gentle waves. This bay is a low-key spot, offering a serene environment surrounded by lush green hills, well-suited for those looking to escape the city noise. Another significant spot is Jinwan Beach (Golden Bay), famous for its wide sandy plains that take on a golden hue during the golden hour. The beach is a popular place for locals to engage in 'clam digging' during low tide and for evening strolls. The coastal scenery here is characterized by its natural purity and the sight of traditional fishing boats dotted along the horizon. The town's culture and food are influenced by its location near the Sino-Vietnamese border. Local restaurants specialize in seafood dishes that highlight the freshness of the daily catch from the Beibu Gulf. Wan'ou is a convenient destination for travelers seeking a quiet maritime experience with easy access to the border trade zones and natural parks of Fangchenggang.
