Shengsi Islands' Blue Tears: June is the Perfect Time to Encounter the Bioluminescent Sea

✨The ultimate guide to chasing Blue Tears in Shengsi Islands is here! June is the prime time to witness this magical bioluminescent phenomenon. Known as the "Little Greece of the East China Sea," these islands boast waters so blue they look filtered, hiding dreamy surprises at night🌌! 📸【Must-Visit TOP3】 1️⃣ Jihu Beach's Glowing Waves: Highest chance of sightings in June! Set your phone to night mode to capture waves bursting with blue sparks. Watch as your footsteps light up the water, like walking through the Milky Way🌊 2️⃣ Foshou Rock on Hua Island: Visit after 2 AM for fewer crowds. From a drone's perspective, the Blue Tears crashing against black reefs create cinematic magic. Turn off flashlights for pure romance✨ 3️⃣ Gouqi Island Beach: Peak season May-August. Locals say it's the "mating dance" of bioluminescent algae. Waves glittering with fluorescent diamonds make even silhouettes glow🌌 🚢【Itinerary】 Day1: Buy ¥144 bus-boat combo ticket at Shanghai Nanpu Bridge → 1.5hr speedboat from Shenjiawan Pier → Check into Jihu Beach cabins (step right onto sand!) → Evening seafood feast at Caiyuan Town night market (try razor clams and hairtail rice)🍤 Day2: Charter to Hua Island → Colorful fishing village murals → Sunset at Foshou Rock → Nighttime Blue Tears hunt → Grab seaweed jelly as souvenir before return❄️ 💡【Pro Tips】 ✔️ Book ferry tickets 3 days early via "Shengsi Passenger Transport" – weekends sell out! ✔️ Wear anti-slip shoes for wet rocks ✔️ Bring clear umbrella – perfect for rainy photos & sun protection☔️ ✔️ Stay at "Shengsi Home Away Home" B&B – sunrise views from balcony + free seafood noodles from hostess🍜 This summer, come tread the Milky Way at Shengsi! 💙 (Psst...June sea breeze smells like hairtail fish~)
