The seafood here is of course fresh. Pull up a chair, face the sea, watch the tranquil sea illuminated by the afterglow, and enjoy it with your eyes and mouth at the same time.

Beach food stalls

Seafood is the main food on the island. It is recommended to go to the vegetable market near the pier to buy your favorite seafood and ask the food stall people to process it. The processing fee is very cheap. In the morning The seafood is freshest and cheapest when fishermen unload their boats around 7:00.

Accommodation on the island is divided into 5 areas:

1. Nanwan Market Area, one of the busiest locations on the island, basically everything you want is available here , if you can’t find it here, you may not be able to find it elsewhere on the island! The seafood market here is a must-see, there are also bars, hotels, and there is a beach after low tide, but the accommodation environment is noisy and the scenery is Mainly based on street views, the price of the inn is higher; it is close to the Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area, suitable for those who love liveliness, are not short of money, and do not like to play in the water;

When going up or down Nanwan, pay attention to safety and be careful of steep slopes!!! It is best to get off the car and push the cart forward.

Currently, there are more accommodations on Weizhou Island, with various styles and prices ranging from 100 to 500.

Weizhou Island is neither big nor small. But the attractions are relatively scattered.

The main places to stay are Dishui Danping, Shell Beach, Xiakengcun on the east coast, Niulan Mountain, etc. If you want to stay for two days, I would recommend staying on the east side. Firstly, it is convenient to watch the sunrise without having to get up early. Secondly, it is quieter, the houses are not so crowded, and the roads are spacious. It is also convenient to get to the market and other attractions. If you have a car, going anywhere will not be a big problem.

I stayed at the Lianhai Garden Inn before It was delicious, I still miss it very much now, and the location is on the east coast, close to Colorful Beach and the Catholic Church. It is a 1-minute walk to the beach and free pick-up from the pier.

In December 2015, I took a train all the way from Dali to Beihai, got off the boat and paid the fee to go to the island. I went to the "Huaer Opens Restaurant" in Dishui Danping Scenic Area and Dishui Village, and met the boss for the first time. Sister Li has the intellectual beauty of Wuxi women in the south of the Yangtze River and the warm and generous character of the Shandong people in the north. Then I started a three-month volunteer trip to Weizhou Island on this warm spring-like island.

Weizhou Island is located in the Beibu Gulf of Beihai City, Guangxi, facing the North Sea to the north, Leizhou Peninsula to the east, adjacent to Xieyang Island to the southeast, facing Hainan Island across the sea to the south, and facing Vietnam to the west. It is the largest volcanic island in China with the youngest geological age. It is an island formed by volcanic eruptions. It has sea erosion, sea accumulation and lava landscapes, especially the sea erosion volcanic harbor in the south is more unique. It ranked second among the "Top Ten Most Beautiful Islands in China" selected by the "China National Geographic Magazine" "Beauty Pageant China".

"Flowers Are Blooming" is located 50 meters away from the parking lot of Dishui Danping Scenic Area. Coming from the road above the parking lot, you will see the tall Haiyun House on the roadside. Just below Yunzhijia Road is Hua'er's restaurant. The restaurant is a three-story building with a large yard. There are grapefruit, bougainvillea, mango, papaya, dragon fruit, jackfruit trees, etc. in the yard. The restaurant mainly receives diners in the lobby and yard on the first floor, and also on the second and third floors. Comes with pick-up for hotel guests. Who can open a restaurant without a few signature dishes, right? The flowers are blooming, including Sister Li’s seafood fried rice, braised banana pig, and pan-fried small yellow croaker. The sweet and sour pork ribs made by her parents, chestnut and mince rock sugar and snow pear water are all dishes that customers like to eat and praise highly, and have received high reviews on Meituan.

The winter of 2015 was quite unusual. The temperature dropped sharply. Weizhou Island was not immune to this cold wave. As a result, there were not many guests visiting the island. It was not until the temperature rose during the Spring Festival that the island became fully popular. .

During the period when there were few customers, I had nothing to do so I rode the electric bike in the store and left my presence on every beach on the island. Next, follow me to see the main attractions of this beautiful island.

First of all, let’s look at the Dishui Danping Scenic Area where I am, just below the south bank of Dishui Village. There is a section of seaside stone cliff in the southwest. The upper part of the cliff is lined with green trees. Water often overflows from the cracks in the upper layers of the cliff, dripping down bit by bit, like a bead curtain hanging down, so it is also called Dripping Rock. The village above was also named Dishui Village. Dishui Beach has a wide, thick and soft beach and clear water. Here, you can rent a deck chair to enjoy the sea breeze and doze leisurely, or you can swim in the sea or ride a jet ski. If you are interested in diving, put on a diving suit and follow the diving instructor to dive into the seabed at different depths and enjoy the beautiful scenery. A personal encounter with the corals will make your trip to Weizhou unforgettable.

The beach of Dishui Danping Scenic Area is on one side of Shiluokou Beach. It is the largest, gentlest and softest place on the island. It is also the best place to watch the sunset outside Shiluokou. The beach is very beautiful. There are pine forests on the shore, and the middle is covered with broken corals left after high tide. The sand on the seaside is very fine, which is very suitable for playing in the water and making sand piles. On both sides of the beach are Dishui Rock and Shiluokou sea cliffs. The layers of texture are very clear on the rocks, which is especially beautiful under the reflection of the setting sun. Many couples taking wedding photos take pictures here.

Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area and Crocodile Mountain Park are the most interesting attractions on Weizhou Island. They are the essence of the entire volcanic geological landscape of Weizhou Island, with stunning volcanic and sea erosion landscapes. Here you can see the most complete remains of volcanic activity, and you can also pick up shells in sea craters. If you are lucky, you will find crabs and fish and shrimps that have no time to retreat in the potholes after low tide.

Enter the scenic spot and walk along the wooden steps on the left from the lighthouse to the bottom of the mountain. You can see the ruins of Crocodile Mountain Crater. It is one of the five craters on Weizhou Island. The last eruption was 10,000 years ago. Years ago, the lava erupted covered the narrow coast, forming a piece of brownish-red volcanic rock around it. The rocks are carved with ghostly axes, the tide ebbs and flows, and the waves crash on the shore, which is breathtaking. The volcanic rocks are connected to the rocks beside Dishui Beach. During low tide, you can walk along both sides of the coast. However, the coast is covered with rocks and is extremely slippery, making walking difficult. At the same time, you have to pay close attention to the time of high and low tides, otherwise you will be trapped on the rocks after high tide.

The best place to watch the sunrise on Weizhou Island is Wucai Beach. In addition to Wucai Beach, you can also watch the sunrise at Shell Beach. The colorful beach in the morning is very slippery, especially the areas with moss, so be extra careful when watching the sunrise at the colorful beach. The colorful beach at high tide is not beautiful, but it will be particularly beautiful after the tide ebbs. The huge volcanic rocks gradually recede to the seabed layer by layer, which is spectacular under the sunlight. After retreating, large tracts of volcanic lava were exposed, and the seawater receded in many places, leaving puddles of water. Reflected by the blue sky, the scenery was one of water and sky.

The Catholic Church and Notre Dame Church are French Renaissance Gothic buildings. The building materials are all taken from coral, lime, and rocks on the island, without a single steel bar or a bit of cement. The church was one of the four largest cathedrals in the country at that time. For hundreds of years, because most of the islanders believed in Catholicism, the church was still well-preserved despite the erosion of many winds and rains. This is also one of the wedding photography spots on the island.

Shell Beach is a beach from the northeastern coast to the northern coast of Weizhou Island. This beach is full of shells on the white sand. The beach is remote and has few tourists, so it retains more of the original ecology. The scenery, those who like peace and quiet or go to Blue Bridge will stay here for half a day.

Lanqiao, the original Sinopec crude oil terminal project started construction but has been abandoned. From the Weizhou Passenger Terminal, you can overlook this long blue building on the sea, which is also called the "Blue Bridge". This abandoned approach bridge to the shore is a photography spot on the island and a good place for islanders to go fishing.

Nanwan Street, at the southernmost tip of Weizhou Island, is the most prosperous and densely populated place on the island. The old passenger terminal of Weizhou Island used to be here. There are the largest food markets, shops and specialty bars and shops on the island. It is a relatively prosperous and noisy street on the island. If what you see in other places on the island is scenery, relax. Then Nanwan is a place where islanders gather to live and do business and tourists get drunk.

Zhuziling is right on the bay of Nanwan Street. This green island is actually a huge rock isolated in the sea. From a distance, the island looks like a prostrate fat pig, with small eyes, short ears, a high forehead, and a plump body. Hence the name.

Okay, if you can see the above content here, then you might as well find a time to bring your luggage, experience it yourself, and embrace the deep blue water. Finally, some travel suggestions on Weizhou Island for your reference;

1. On the island, March, May, July, August and September, and the Spring Festival are the peak tourist seasons. The rest of the time is considered off-season. The most suitable time for swimming is from May to November. In the peak season, you must book your return ticket in advance, especially during holidays. Tickets will be very tight. It is best to contact the boss or book tickets in advance on the official website to avoid any impact. During the summer vacation, tickets can be booked one month in advance. In the off-season, except for the suspension of sailings due to storms and typhoons, you can basically buy and go.

It must be noted that from July to September, summer tropical storms and typhoons often occur, which will cause all ships from Beihai to Weizhou Island to be suspended, making it impossible to go to the island or staying on the island, so you must know the weather trends in advance before traveling. .

On the island, don’t think that just because you are playing by the water, you should neglect sun protection. In mild cases, your skin will peel off, and in severe cases, you will not be able to get back your skin for months. Especially the sun at noon is the most poisonous and the most likely to cause sunburn. If you have a casual holiday, it is recommended to go in the off-season, so that you can avoid the surging crowds and slowly enjoy the "uninhabited beach"; you can also enjoy the more cost-effective and cheaper accommodation and transportation on the island than in the peak season.

3 The accommodation conditions on the island vary from high to low, depending on personal financial conditions. In the past, water and electricity were often cut off due to limited resources. At night when the power was cut off, the entire island was roaring with the sound of diesel generators. , keeping you up all night, now this problem is basically solved.

4 There are no buses on the island, and there are not many cars. The most convenient way to travel is to rent an electric car, which is very energy-saving in the hot summer. There are also bicycles,

but there are many slopes on the island, and riding a bicycle is definitely a physical activity. For those who don’t know how to ride a bicycle, it is recommended to rent a three-wheeled motorcycle for a day trip with 3-4 people.

5. When eating, vegetarian dishes on the island are relatively expensive, and seafood is fresher and cheaper than in the mainland. There are many types of seafood on the island, including various fish, crabs, abalone, squid, shrimps and other seafood. You can order food at a restaurant, or you can set up a stall at the beach waiting for the fishermen who have returned from fishing. It is cheaper than buying at the market. ?You can enjoy your meal by paying some processing fee and letting the boss process it for you and deliver it to the table. Basically all accommodations and hotels on the island have OEM services. Let me tell you secretly: You don’t need to buy any bananas, plantains or papayas on the island. When you see a banana forest, you can go into the banana forest and find a bunch of naturally ripe ones, pick them and eat until you’re full.

If you are caught by the islanders, don’t say what I told you, haha!
