Beihai: Beachaholic Nature on A Silver Beach

#beachaholic Beihai Silver Beach, located 8 kilometers (5 miles) from the center of Beihai City, stretches for about 24 kilometers from east to west. The width of the beach is 30-3 000 meters. The sand on the beach is the finest quartz sand, which shimmers with silvery light under the sunlight, hence the name Silver Beach. The flat and soft beach is considered the “greatest beach in China" because of the fine and white sand, soft waves, clear sea water and a safe shark-free environment. Beihai Silver Beach, China, is an ideal swimming beach and holiday resort. The beach itself is large enough to accommodate a lot of people swimming at the same time. The water here has a strong ability to self-purify. Standing on the seashore, you can even see the landscape at a depth of 2 meters underwater. Swimming here is also very safe due to the slow tide and the absence of dangerous marine life. For the convenience of swimmers, luggage storage and a shower can be used here as well. Even more exciting activities on the beach include parasailing and motor boating, as well as fun beach sports such as beach volleyball and beach soccer. In addition, there is Silver Beach Park with many entertainment projects such as bumper boats and go-karts. On the beach there is the largest musical sculptural fountain in Asia, which is worth a visit. The sculpture in the shape of a ball has a height of 23 meters and a diameter of 20 meters. This huge stainless steel sculpture symbolizes the great pearl. In addition, an ecological square has been built near the beach. This area with a unique architectural solution includes more than 30 pavilions and houses. On this square you can see a Coconut grove and a rare bird show, a customs show of Vietnam and Russia and performances by parasailers.
