Xiamen Seaside Happiness Guide: Super Sweet Summer Vibes

Xiamen's sea is literally a happiness generator! Once you come, you won't want to leave—who can resist this feeling? 🥳 🌅 Dawn at Xitou Beach Glows Waking up at the crack of dawn, the sand still cool from the night. Sitting under the crooked banyan tree waiting for sunrise, watching the sky shift from pale fish-belly white to soft pink-purple, until suddenly—a golden beam bursts forth, turning the sea into a path of scattered glitter ✨ Running barefoot after the waves, retreating when they advance, chasing when they recede, like playing hide-and-seek with the ocean. Even with soaked pant cuffs, the laughter rings loud and clear! 🌊 Noon at Coconut Wind Village is Lively Renting a colorful float to splash around in the shallows, the waves tickling your feet until you can't help but giggle. The beach umbrellas look like giant mushrooms—hiding under them while eating an ice pop, the chocolatey sweetness dripping onto the sand and attracting tiny ants 🐜 Watching others zoom by on jet skis, sending sprays of water sky-high—just seeing it feels exhilarating! 🌇 Dusk at Music Square is Magical The sunset dyes the sea honey-gold, while someone strums a guitar on the square, their song carried far by the ocean breeze. Sitting on the steps, swinging your feet, watching the waves wash shells ashore—quickly picking them up, wiping them clean, and pocketing them like treasures 💎 A balloon vendor passes by with his cart, colorful balloons floating in the twilight like a string of flying candies. 🌌 Nighttime on the Island Ring Road Breathes Cruising slowly along the coast on an e-bike, the evening wind brushing your cheeks, carrying the salty scent of the sea. Stopping at a barbecue stall for a few skewers of grilled squid, the sizzling aroma making your mouth water. Sitting on a bench by the roadside, watching the distant lighthouse flicker like the sea blinking—heartwarming and cozy. 🦞 Must-Try Delicacies ✔️ Grilled scallops drizzled with lemon juice—so fresh it’ll make your eyebrows fly off! ✔️ Iced sour plum drink—one sip and you’re refreshed, ultra thirst-quenching. ✔️ Freshly made oyster pancakes—crispy outside, tender inside, packed with oceanic flavor and pure satisfaction. 💡 Pro Tips Wear breathable clothes—playing by the sea makes you sweat! Bring a small towel to wipe off sweat and sand. Don’t forget to charge your phone—there’s so much beauty to capture, you might run out of storage! Xiamen’s sea is like an enthusiastic friend, pulling you into laughter and fun, washing all your worries away. Come and have a date with it! 💖
