OMG, you guys! Watching the sunrise in Nan'ao Island left me speechless! The sunrise in Nan'ao Island is the best! During this trip to Nan'ao Island, I made a special effort to get up early to watch the sunrise, and it was truly stunning. 📍Best viewing spots 1. Qing'ao Bay Tropic of Cancer Square: There is no obstruction to seeing the sunrise here in winter. The iconic "Gate of Nature" echoes the sunrise and sea view, and you can take stunning photos in minutes. However, the sunrise in summer may be partially blocked by Dongjiao Mountain. 2. Sanchongya Lighthouse: There is no obstruction all year round. The lighthouse, lawn, and sea form a rich picture. Photography enthusiasts should bring a tripod to shoot time-lapses and create stunning photos easily. 3. Zhuqidu Bay: It is excellent for watching the sunrise in summer. Although it may be partially blocked by mountains in winter, the sea is dotted with fishing boats, making the picture very poetic. If you like camping, the nearby "Freedom Beach Campsite" allows you to experience the unique atmosphere of camping and watching the sunrise. 4. Windmill Mountain (near Houhuayuan Village): The sunrise perfectly combines with the windmill farm and panoramic views of the mountains and sea. Taking photos against the light is very cinematic, so don't miss it if you want to take atmospheric photos. ⏰Travel time and season selection 1. Seasonal differences: In winter (November to February of the following year), the sunrise angle in Qing'ao Bay is excellent, and there are fewer tourists. If you want to enjoy a private sunrise experience, you can choose this time. Zhuqidu Bay may be blocked by mountains in winter, so it is not recommended. In summer (May to September), there is no obstruction to watching the sunrise in Zhuqidu Bay, but pay attention to the obstruction of Dongjiao Mountain in Qing'ao Bay. 2. Daily time: Check the sunrise time on the weather app in advance (around 6:30–7:00 in winter and around 5:30–6:00 in summer). It is recommended to arrive at the viewing spot 30–60 minutes in advance, so you can capture the whole process from the "blue hour" to the sunrise. Every frame is unbelievably beautiful. 📸Photo tips 1. Equipment: For cameras, a telephoto lens can capture the sun rising big and round. Taking photos with a mobile phone is also very convenient. Now the photo functions of mobile phones are also very powerful, and you can take great photos by adjusting the parameters. 2. Composition: You can include elements such as the lighthouse, sea, and sky in the picture, and use foreground composition, such as using the lighthouse as the foreground, to create a super atmospheric effect. You can also try shooting from a low angle, putting people and the sunrise in the same frame, and easily take blockbuster photos. 3. Props: Bring small props such as sparklers and bubble machines to make the photos more story-like. If you encounter a coffee truck, use coffee as a prop to make the photos artistic and photogenic. ❗Precautions 1. The sea breeze in Nan'ao Island is very strong. Even in summer, it is best to bring a jacket when watching the sunrise, so you don't catch a cold. 2. Be sure to check the weather before watching the sunrise, and try to go when the weather is clear. Otherwise, you won't be able to see the beautiful sunrise on cloudy and rainy days. 3. It is not easy to get a taxi on the island. If you live far from the viewing spot, it is recommended to book a car in advance or rent a small electric scooter, so you can travel more freely.
