The homestay I stayed at is near the Mazu Temple, just across the road from the beach, where you can watch the sunrise from the homestay The sea view terrace is really delightful ~

Scenic spot tour
First stop: Rainbow Road.
🌈 To the right of the ferry exit 🫱 is the island's ring road, which is very picturesque when the weather is good, perfect for a leisurely bike ride, feeling the sea breeze on your face. 💕
Second stop: Meiyu Tidal Sound.
Can be visited together with Rainbow Road, arrived around noon, so missed the sunrise on the sea walkway. But the sea is really blue and beautiful.
Third stop: Farmers' market.
Went there for lunch around noon, said to be quite affordable, had milk tea and Xitianwei flat food, a popular place here, waited for about fifteen minutes, but it was large, delicious, and affordable, the king of cost performance, 30 yuan for a meal.
Fourth stop: Tianfei Homeland.
Passed by when going to the farmers' market, came here after eating, mainly Mazu's ancestral temple, former residence, and Meizhou women's culture, etc., there's a beautiful tower, took some photos.
Fifth stop: Mazu Temple.
Min Nan people who love to worship naturally won't miss this spot, prayed with full sincerity, hoping Mazu will bless 🙏! After praying, went up to the mountaintop Mazu Cultural Park and took photos with the giant Mazu statue, overlooking the island from the mountain, extremely beautiful, took many photos.
Sixth stop: Goose Tail Beach, Feiji Cave.
After visiting the Mazu Temple and seeing there was still plenty of time, rode the electric scooter to the other end's Goose Tail Divine Rock Park. The beach here is a bit more crowded, with coffee shops, but didn't stay long, went straight to see Feiji Cave, this marine erosion landscape is quite special, just a bit far. The cave entrance was always crowded with people taking photos, didn't get a clean background shot, so headed back directly.
Returned to the wharf around 5:30 pm, returned the electric scooter, took the ferry off the island, missed the sunset, if there's enough time, can stay overnight on the island, many scenic spots can be enjoyed slowly, not many tourists, beautiful scenery, personally feel it's a very worthwhile island to visit. Meizhou Island is beautiful, will come again!
An average of 300 yuan per person includes all transportation costs, ferry and entrance tickets, lunch, feels really cost-effective
In Weizhou Island, you can listen to the wind and rain, and the most beautiful thing is to listen to the tide. There are large diaphragms on the seabed in the northern Weizhou Island, which are washed by the wind and waves and form natural grooves, which are hundreds of meters long. The unique wind erosion and sea erosion landforms are wonderful and rhythmic with the tides. The sound created by the tide is like an orchestral symphony, and the gripping "Yuyu Chaoyin" is famous.
Tongyu Island, that is, Putian to the island, because of its shape as an eyebrow, is named in the sea, Hong Kong shore Shenao. Yu Chaoyin Scenic Area is one of the 24 scenery of Putian, located in the northernmost end of Weizhou Island. Because of its unique wind erosion and sea erosion landform, under the action of tidal waves, such as the orchestra's fine sound, like the bell and drums. "Since the ancient palace merchants passed water music, it is like wind and rain to make dragon yin.", the literati ink guests of all generations left many praise poems here. Tongyu Chaoyin has more than 20 attractions of size and size. Among them, Tiangou, Cangying, Rat, and Swallow spread their wings in a fascinating way, Quying to the meeting, Nantian one pillar, Shitao Yangzhi full of mythology; Longteng Stone, Tiger Rock, Guanlan Pavilion, Lingbo Quqiao formed of Longhu Beach magnificent. Entering the scenic spot, I saw a piece of cactus in the mountainside, and the bright cactus fruit was really attractive. After visiting the scenic spot, there was a "Cangying Opera Rat" not far away. The Cangying is quite imaged. There is a rock below. If it is a mouse, it is a bit big. "Cangying Opera Rat" formed on the Niutouwei Sea Erosion Cliff, from the sea erosion action along the north and west 340 knots of fracture surface difference erosion formation like the image stone of Cangying and Mouse, formed about 0.36 years ago. Cangying looked up and watched, guarding the north gate of Mazu Temple; The mouse was born timid and afraid of the eagle, and shrunk its head and hid its tail, revealing only a small eyelid.
I visited the Mazuzu Temple in Pazhou and rode a small tram to the Chaoyin Scenic Area of Tongyu, the nearest to Mazuzu Temple. The Chaoyin Scenic Area of Tongyu is one of the 24 scenic spots in Putian, located at the northernmost end of Weizhou Island. Because of its unique wind erosion and sea erosion landform, under the action of tidal waves, such as the orchestra's fine sound, like the bell and drums. "Since the ancient palace merchants passed water music, it is like wind and rain to make dragon yin.", the literati ink guests of all generations left many praise poems here. Tongyu Chaoyin has more than 20 attractions of size and size. Among them: Tiangu Sun, Cangying Opera Rat, and Yan Yan spread their wings in a fascinating way; Quying went to the meeting, Nantian Yizhu, Shitao Yangzhi full of mythology; Longteng Stone, Tiger Rock, Guanlan Pavilion, Lingbo Quqiao formed of Longhu Beach magnificent. First see Tiangu Sun in the scenic spot. The day of the dog was formed on the giant sea erosion ridge of the second-level terrace of Weizhou Island. It was formed by the sea erosion and erosion along the joint fracture surface. It formed like a pet dog image stone about 10,000 years ago. It faces the sea, with its head upturned and its legs raised. Welcome to visit Weizhou.

湄屿潮音公园在湄洲岛最北端,与湄洲妈祖祖庙山交界,三面对海,层林叠翠。园内看点是有1亿多年的二长花岗岩、黑云母花岗岩、辉绿岩等经长时间风涛剥蚀形成海蚀奇观,岩岸海床在潮汐吞吐中发生共振感化的声音成为莆田廿四景之一湄屿潮音。湄屿潮音公园比较值得一去,上岛后就能看到湄洲岛对其的宣传图片。湄屿潮音公园门票免费,位置相对较远,可以坐公交前往。公交收的较早,没赶上还有私人运营的电瓶旅游车,不过真的是蛮贵的。建议放在一早或上午去游览,公园在湄洲岛最北端,与湄洲妈祖祖庙山交界,三面面海。到湄洲岛一般取道莆田,莆田火车站出站后坐32路到笏石汽车站然后坐去文甲码头的车再坐轮渡到湄洲岛,湄洲岛上岛大门票65元,这个门票主要是玩沙滩的,不是通票。上岛后码头上公交站仅有3条公交线路都要到,凭上岛门票可免费乘坐公交。
