A romantic journey to the sea in Huizhou Shuangyue Bay.
🌟Huizhou Shuangyue Bay's name comes from its unique geographical shape. It is composed of two adjacent half-moon shapes of Daya Bay and Honghai Bay. The shape looks like two crescent moons from above, hence the name "Shuangyue Bay". The left bay is as smooth as a mirror, while the right bay is turbulent. Two sand spits run straight to Daxing Mountain, like a dragon emerging from the sea or two dragons playing with a pearl. It is both static and dynamic and very magnificent. Half Moon Bay on the shore of Daya Bay is graceful with gentle breeze and fine waves. The Half Moon Bay on the shore of Rainbow Bay has rough waves and is magnificent.
