The Best City to See the Sea in the North: Yantai Two-Day One-Night Guide

I declare that the sea in Yantai is the most beautiful sea I have seen in China (don't spray me, I'm a local dog) 1️⃣ Itinerary Day1: Golden Beach → The Lonely Whale → Binhai Middle Road → Fisherman's Wharf → Chaoyang Street (stay near Golden Beach) Day2: Yangma Island (stay near Yangma Island Bridge) 2️⃣ Transportation: Renting a car is very cheap 🚗 and it's convenient for changing hotels and for driving along the seaside. Parking in Yantai is very convenient; you can park on both sides of the road. 3️⃣ Accommodation: We changed hotels twice, the first day at the All Seasons Hotel (Golden Beach store) was especially beautiful (see pictures for details) The second day we switched to the Yantai Longhu Holiday Hotel right next to the Yangma Island Bridge, which is very convenient for going to Yangma Island. 4️⃣ Expenses: Excluding airfare, the total cost is about 💰1000 per person. 5️⃣ Dining: Yantai's specialties this season are cherries, seafood, fried braised dishes, and Korean meals, all very cheap and affordable. 6️⃣ Weather: April is very cold, much colder than Jinan. Especially in the morning and evening, you need to wear a down jacket.
