One-day tour of Nanzhang Naozhou Island

Tourism Strategy of Naozhou Island in Zhanjiang City

First, the introduction of scenic spots

0 1 Turtle City

Turtle City and Yan Na Beach are very close, so these two scenic spots can be visited together. There are nearly ten hundred-year-old turtles in Guicheng. It is said that turtles are spiritual and can bring good luck. I don't really believe in these things, but I just went to see them out of curiosity. When I first saw it, it was really shocking. This turtle is bigger than man. I didn't feel it the second time I went to see it. Tickets for 5 yuan/person will provide a small pot of wax gourd for turtles.

02 Nayan Beach

When the weather is fine, the sea is vast and blue. At first glance, water and sky meet, the sea is vast and the sky is calm. The most special is the large volcanic lava reef on the shore, which is the rock left over from the volcanic eruption hundreds of thousands of years ago, piled up on the beach, where waves beat and wind and frost eroded. A large area of black volcanic rocks is strewn at random and extremely hard. The sea is pounding violently, stirring up layers of waves, year after year, and again and again.

Whenever I climb these rugged rocks and look at the boundless sea, I always think of Cao Cao's Jieshi in the East to see the sea. The waves beat and the waves were rough. "The universe is boundless and the mountains and seas are boundless. Under such magnificent scenery, ambition can't help surging from the bottom of my heart.

03 Tanzhou lighthouse

For a tourist, this is just a simple lighthouse, and there is nothing to see. However, it is such an ordinary-looking building that has extraordinary significance and function to Naozhou Island. According to the records, this lighthouse is made of floral crystal, built in 1899, with the chart elevation of 103 m, the tower height of 23 m, the square pier at the base of the tower, the width of 5 m, the cylindrical tower body and the top width of 4 m. Lighthouses are made of hard granite of different sizes and shapes. Granite is closely connected with each other, and the connection is seamless and very strong. There are 83 spiral steps from the bottom to the top of the tower. It is as famous as London and the Cape of Good Hope Lighthouse, and is listed as one of the three famous lighthouses in the world. It always shimmers, guiding one sail after another to return.

This scenic spot is as poetic and romantic as its name: it has a beautiful and bright bay. I was attracted to Naozhou Island for the first time because of the scenery here. I like the dusk in the bright bay. The setting sun slowly sets on the sea, and the red sunset glow shines on the water, sparkling and sparkling.

When the setting sun completely disappears on the other side of the sea, the tide on this side gradually recedes, and the fishing boats drifting outside have returned to Hong Kong to station and stay safely and quietly. For fishing boats, this is home, warm, safe and peaceful. Twilight rises, the gray-blue night hangs over this calm bay, and the lights of every fishing boat are on, flickering. It's like talking to each other about the experience of wandering at sea for a day, and it's like telling an ancient secret about this sea.

It is rich and interesting, including not only returning fishing boats, but also silent turquoise beach stones, small fish and shrimps hidden under the stones, conchs of various shapes, colorful starfish, grotesque shells, and white transparent jellyfish stranded and never returning to the sea.

Second, seafood dinner

I didn't catch enough seafood myself. In the morning, you can go to the dock to buy all kinds of seafood caught by fishermen. The fishing port pier of Naozhou Island is a major landscape on the island. Many people come to Naozhou Island because they are eager for seafood. Every morning, hundreds of fishing boats gather on the sea near the dock, and baskets of fresh fish, crabs and shrimps are transported from the fishing boat warehouse to the shore one after another. Bustling tourists and residents have come out, coming and going, picking and choosing, and finally returning home with a full load. The price of seafood here is slightly lower, but it is not cheap either. Fresh and natural, original flavor. Before you come to Naozhou Island, you must have a rub before you can go to glad you came.

Huge green lobster, plump green crab, plump roasted oyster. ...

The night at the pier of Naozhou Island is also a great beauty, with thousands of lights and fishing songs, as if it were a "city on the sea" connected by ships. Having a barbecue at night and feeling the refreshing and slightly fishy smell of the sea breeze in the fireworks is a person's memory of the island.

Third, accommodation.

There are few hotels in Naozhou Island, but there is only one hotel with convenient transportation near the pier: Bihai International Hotel, and the pier can be seen from the hotel window.

Fourth, the traffic strategy.

_ If you arrive by car, please search for "Naozhou Island Tourist Area" or navigate to destinations such as B&B directly on the mobile phone map.

_ Arrive at the "Southeast Pier" before going to the island, and take the bus ferry from the southeast pier to the island. You can also go to the island by car.

Five, warm tips

1. The island is an undeveloped natural island with limited accommodation. The best local hotel is equivalent to a three-star standard.

There are many seafood stalls near the pier. The local islanders are simple and affordable.

Every night on the coast, the islanders are singing and dancing, and everyone can have fun with them.

4. Next to Rendu Wharf is Mazu Tempel, which is built facing the sea. The buildings and trees here are unique and distinctive. As the road is narrow, it is recommended that you walk there.

The time of going out to sea should be arranged by fishermen themselves. Fishermen should arrange Shanghai time according to the ebb and flow of the tide, so don't be impatient. If you can't go to sea due to weather or irresistible reasons, please make another discussion.

6. The most abundant and well-known seafood products in Naozhou Island: Naozhou abalone, Naozhou green lobster, Naozhou white pomfret, dried seafood of Naozhou yellow croaker fishermen, etc. These seafood fishermen can help pack ice bubble boxes, which are convenient to carry and keep fresh. The price is also very favorable. You can buy it for relatives and friends.

7. Be sure to pay attention to the rocks under your feet when catching the sea to prevent cuts and slips; When chiseling oysters, be careful not to scratch your little hand.

8. Naozhou Island belongs to a primitive volcanic island, and there is no perfect tourist safety facility at present. This group is a special experience group. During the trip, please be sure to follow the arrangement of the tour leader and local fishermen. You are not allowed to swim in the water without permission, and you can play reliably at the seaside when the waves are big.

9. The tortoise is a national protected animal, please take care of it consciously. During the tour, visit according to the instructions of the staff, and don't feed the turtles with food provided by non-scenic spots;

10, the island is a primitive island with simple folk customs and beautiful natural environment. Please bring your own mosquitoes, be afraid of water and prevent mosquitoes.
