Travel tips

1. Beihai-Weizhou Island takes pleasure boats as the main means of transportation. It sails from Beihai to Weizhou Island at 8: 00 every morning and returns to Beihai at 16: 00 in the afternoon. The slow journey takes about 2.5-3 hours.

2. Many places in Weizhou Island still maintain simple folk customs. After visiting the island, tourists can experience the life of fishermen and sing a "fisherman's music". Visitors with enough time may wish to stay on the island for one night. Although the accommodation conditions on the island are not very advanced, it feels good.

Because it is a volcanic island, the seabed of Weizhou Island is not generally beautiful. Visitors with physical conditions may wish to dive for sightseeing and enjoy the precious coral resources in China.
