🌟Highlights
Oversea Boardwalk: Winding over the sea, like a path leading to the depths of the ocean. Stroll along it and enjoy a 360-degree view of the mangrove forest and the sea. With the lush mangrove forest on one side and the vast sea on the other, every shot is a masterpiece.
Mangrove Forest Landscape: Boasting approximately 1,300 acres of mangrove forest, the main tree species include Sonneratia apetala, Kandelia obovata, Avicennia marina, Laguncularia racemosa, and Aegiceras corniculatum. The mangrove forest is evergreen throughout the year, like a green forest on the sea. At high tide, parts of it are submerged by seawater, leaving only the crowns exposed, resembling an "oasis on the sea." At low tide, the intricate root system is visible. You can also see egrets and other seabirds perching and foraging in the forest. If you're lucky, you might capture a scene of "sunset and solitary egret fly together, autumn waters blend with the vast sky."
Laoshushan (Mouse Mountain): One of the core areas of the park. Climbing the mountain offers a superb view of the entire mangrove forest and the surrounding seascape. The air on the mountain is fresh, a natural oxygen bar. However, the mountain path is a bit steep, so remember to wear comfortable sneakers.
Seashore Foraging: At low tide, the shoals are exposed, making it a great place for seashore foraging. You can dig for oysters, small crabs, small fish, etc. Check the tide table in advance before foraging, and bring tools such as a small shovel, bucket, and gloves.
📝Precautions
Some areas of the park are low-lying and may be submerged at high tide. Pay attention to safety while playing and do not rush into dangerous areas.
Take sun protection measures, bring sunscreen, a sun hat, sunglasses, etc., as the ultraviolet rays are strong at the seaside and can easily cause sunburn.
Pay attention to your footing while foraging, wear non-slip shoes to avoid falls and injuries; do not damage the mangrove forest and marine ecological environment.
There are many mosquitoes in the park, so it is recommended to bring mosquito repellent.
