Shantou Nan'ao Island Travel Guide - The place where the Tropic of Cancer passes through

Shantou's Nan'ao Island is beautiful and a great off-the-beaten-path destination for spring. Attractions and Activities It is the eleventh largest island in China. Its geographical location and significance are also very important. As the only island that the Tropic of Cancer passes through in our country, it is also the boundary between the East China Sea and the South China Sea. Transportation and Accommodation Plane: Jieyang Airport High-speed train: Shantou Station From Shantou city center, take bus 161 A / B line to the tourist center and then take bus 602 to enter the island. On Nan'ao Island, the main means of transportation are buses and ride-hailing services. It is also recommended to rent a bicycle or electric scooter. I was on a day trip and didn't consider specific accommodation issues - it seems that most people stay in Houzhai Town and Qing'ao Bay. Food Recommendations Teochew beef and satay noodles are my favorites. Considerate TIPS Do not hail a black cab on the roadside, use a ride-hailing service instead. Do not buy seafood from roadside vendors indiscriminately; choose a fresh seafood market instead.
