What are the good places to watch the sunrise on New Year's Day in Shanwei? Where is the best place to watch the sunrise in Shantou?

_ Turtle Island

The island is located in Jiesheng Town, Honghai Bay, Shanwei. It looks like a turtle in the water, with its head facing west and its body facing east horizontally. It is more than 3 kilometers away from the nearest land, but there is a fresh water well on the island that has not dried up for a hundred years, which is a good place for passing ships to avoid typhoons or rest. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was occupied by pirates and became a base for looting houses. There are still remains of pirate's residence in the north of the island.

Scenic spot

1, north beach: Wharf with rough sand and speedboat berthing. The speedboat price on the island is 50 yuan/person.

There are many huge stones on the observation deck high in the west. Standing on the observation deck, you can see most of the islands and the sea, which is very spectacular.

The valley in the south faces the South China Sea. The waves are very big and impact the rocks. Few people play here. Mazu is also in the south, which is another high point. It overlooks the whole island. This is a good place to watch the sunrise.
