Weihai locals won't tell you about these secret cycling spots along the coastal road

10 km cycling guide for beginners Sisters! I just unlocked a fantastic way to cycle along the Weihai Coastal Road. The sea breeze, beaches, and cliffside roads are so beautiful that I was lost for words! Here’s a detailed route + secret photo spots + a guide to relaxing in the city center ⬇️ 🚴♀️ [Cycling Route Guide] 1️⃣ Weigao Plaza → Half Moon Bay (approx. 3 km) - Beginner-friendly section! Cycle along the coastal path with the blue sea on the left and European-style buildings on the right. Stop at Haiyuan Park along the way. The fishing boats and wooden boardwalk are super photogenic. - ✨Hidden trick: Depart at 6 am and cycle to Half Moon Bay to catch the sunrise (remember to rent a bike in advance!) 2️⃣ Half Moon Bay → Cat Head Mountain (approx. 2 km) - Prime section! Cliffside road + 270° sea view. Stop at Viewing Platform No. 2 (take wide-angle shots of the cliffside waves) - ⚠️ Note: You may need to push your bike on some steep slopes. It is recommended to wear non-slip shoes. 3️⃣ Cat Head Mountain → International Bathing Beach (approx. 5 km) - Easy downhill section! Pass Grape Beach and Golden Beach. Stop to play in the water at any time. End at Torch 8th Street to take Japanese-style highway photos. 📸 [Popular Photo Spots] ✅ Torch 8th Street Slope: Arrive before 7 am! Wear a light-colored long dress to capture "the end of the road is the sea" ✅ Cat Head Mountain Viewing Platform No. 2: Stand on the cliffside wooden boardwalk for a full cinematic effect ✅ Half Moon Bay Sunrise: Backlit silhouette with an orange-red sky (lower the exposure on your phone) ✅ Xiaoshidao Reef Area: Capture the atmosphere of catching the sea during low tide (borrow fishing net props for a more vivid effect) 🍔 [Must-Eat Food After Cycling] 🔥 Dongcheng Road Night Market: A 10-minute walk straight after cycling! Highly recommend Lao Gu Bei Wonton + Henry BBQ lamb skewers (amazing with Weihai spicy sauce) 🐟 Chocolate Fisherman: Steamed seafood pot heals the stomach after a sweaty workout! 🏨 [Heavenly Accommodation for Cyclists - New Journey Hotel] 🌟 City center C position: 200m north of Weigao Plaza, super convenient for renting a car/eating/late-night snacks! You can rent electric bikes at the front desk for CNY 50 a day, and cycling equipment can be stored at the front desk 🌟 Scenic spot hub: Only 3 km from Half Moon Bay (10 minutes by bike), super convenient to go to Cat Head Mountain/International Bathing Beach 🌟 Savior after a long walk: Dry and wet separation bathroom + zero-pressure mattress. It’s so great to chill and review your beautiful cycling photos on the 84-inch projector! 👉🏻 Book a room now and mention "Cycling Guide" to get a hand-drawn map **💡Tips** ① It is safer to rent a car from the hotel front desk. Electric bikes are CNY 50/day (can be returned in a different location) ② Sunscreen! Sunscreen! The ultraviolet rays on the beach are super strong (physical sunscreen is the best) ③ Newbies are advised to cycle in sections and use public transportation for easier transfers~
