Shanwei Travel Guide

Compared to other seaside areas in Guangdong, Red Bay boasts a glass sea that is not yet overly commercialized, presenting a beauty as if one is in a foreign country. If you want to see the sea during the Spring Festival, this beach with few people and beautiful scenery is an excellent choice. 🚗 How to get to Red Bay After arriving at Shanwei Station by high-speed train from various places, navigate to the "Red Beach Tourist Area". The scenic area is open for free, and you can choose to drive yourself, take a taxi, or take a bus directly. 🌊 One-day travel itinerary Following the travel itinerary I recommend, the entire route is filled with stunning seascapes: "📍Tianliao Village Hou'ao Beach → South Sea Guanyin Scenic Area → Sea Castle → Seaside Road → Zhelang Battery". 1️⃣ Hou'ao Beach This is a free and deserted glass sea with fishing boats, windmills, and shells that can be picked up everywhere, making it unforgettable. 2️⃣ South Sea Guanyin Scenic Area The Guanyin statue facing the sea is solemn and sacred. Taking photos near the seaside rocks also yields excellent results. 3️⃣ Sea Castle The most photogenic spot in the whole of Shanwei, the abandoned castle and the huge waves have an atmosphere reminiscent of Jeju Island. The nearby castle cafe is also very photogenic. 4️⃣ Seaside Road On the seaside rainbow road, there are many relaxing cafes. Enjoying afternoon tea while watching the sea here is very pleasant. 5️⃣ Zhelang Battery If you want to watch the sunset, be sure to walk to the seaside near the battery. Here you can enjoy the sunset 360 degrees without any blind spots, and the fishing boats and birds are all incredibly beautiful. 💡💡Travel Tips ▫️ Be sure to pay attention to the weather when going to the beach, as only on sunny days can you take beautiful photos. ▫️ In addition to Red Bay, Jintian Bay and Magong Beach in Shanwei are also worth visiting, and you can plan a two-day and one-night travel itinerary. This trip to Shanwei was comfortable and relaxing. I really want to go again and explore more charming seascapes.
