Weizhou Island Blues: A Summer Fairy Tale in Jelly-Colored Waves

🕐In June on Weizhou Island, the gentle sunlight🌞 spills onto the sea, dyeing the waters in gradient jelly🙂‍↔️ hues. The waves🌿 lap softly against the sandy beach🏜️, as if playing a summer symphony. Beachcombing🚢 is the most delightful experience—walking barefoot on the damp sand, discovering hidden little crabs🦀, watching fiddler crabs wave their big claws🫡 in battle, and spotting camouflaged sea slugs disguised as mudflats. Every discovery brings endless surprises🤩. At dawn, ☝️make sure to rise early for the sunrise over the sea. When the first rays pierce the clouds, the entire ocean turns fiery orange, breathtakingly beautiful😛. On the first day🌞 after arriving in Beihai, it’s best to check into a hotel and rest🛌. Beihai’s Old Street exudes a rich Nanyang (Southeast Asian) charm🫠, with its weathered arcades standing as witnesses to time🫥. The silver sand of Yintan Beach is fine😱 and white, incredibly soothing underfoot. The sunset at Guantouling Beach is unparalleled🫣, while the twilight at Zixia Bay is dreamlike. Bamboo enthusiasts will enjoy a visit to the Nanmu Bamboo Museum🕵️‍♀️. 🌞On the second day🚢, take a ferry to Weizhou Island, where a coastal🌊 tour is the best way to explore. The Spring-Summer Cliff Garden is a photography paradise⛰️—wear bright-colored👗 dresses for stunning shots against the blue sky and sea. For lunch, don’t miss the local specialty banana chicken🐔, with its crispy skin and tender, juicy🤤 meat. At dusk, sit on the seaside🌊 rocks and watch the🌇 sun slowly sink below the horizon—the tranquility of this moment is priceless😲. The unique Reef Hotel🏠 offers rooms where you can hear the waves🌊 right outside your door. ❤️On the third day, wake up early for sunrise at Rainbow Beach🏜️. Bathed in morning light, the shore glows golden🌇, almost otherworldly💯. In the morning, try SDI deep🔫 diving to get up close with vibrant coral reefs💒 and freely swimming marine life🎢. For afternoon tea, relax under a beach🏝️ umbrella with fresh tropical🥥 fruits as the sea breeze soothes you. Dinner calls for a seafood🦞 feast—freshly caught fish, shrimp, and shellfish, simply cooked to highlight their natural flavors🤤. ❤️The Reef Hotel is located in the northwest of Weizhou Island🫠, close to the pier and Blue Bridge.😌 Here, the crystal-clear waters and soft sand make it perfect for beachcombing🏝️. The hotel features 43 uniquely designed rooms🏠, each with a private courtyard or soaking pool🫠, offering stunning sea views from bed🛌. The outdoor heated pool is ideal for cooling off🙃, and 24-hour⏰ front desk service adds a thoughtful touch. Whether for a romantic👫 getaway or a family vacation, this place fulfills every☺️ island dream.
