The crazy popular island on social media is not overseas!! It's in Zhejiang!!
Zhejiang really has blue seas.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought...
I recently visited a lesser-known island in Wenzhou—Nanji Island
I posted on my Moments and everyone thought I went abroad.

Nanji Island on a sunny day is unbelievably beautiful.
Otherwise, let's just say, there's a reason why Nanji Island was named one of China's top ten most beautiful islands by 'National Geographic'.

◼️Recommended attractions on the island
🏷️Sanpanwei
It's the beautiful grassland in the picture, facing east where you can watch the sunrise. The bus to this scenic area only operates from 4:00 AM to 10:00 AM, so there are almost no people if you charter a car in the afternoon.
🏷️Dashawan
A large wild beach on the island, with fine and soft sand. You can also go to the beach to catch seafood during low tide, and bring tools to dig for clams in the sand.
🏷️Verbena Flower Sea
Many places on the island are planted with large areas of purple verbena, which from a distance looks no different from a lavender sea.
🏷️Coastal Road
If you can rent a car from the locals, driving along the coastal road would be very enjoyable.

If you're planning to visit this seaside garden of Dongtou🏖️
Feel free to like and save these foolproof tips❗️
A total of 🔟 tips. Once you've read them, pack your bags and get ready to go~
·
1⃣️Although it's gradually becoming autumn, the sun on a clear day is still quite strong, so make sure to protect yourself from the sun!
2⃣️The temperature difference between morning and evening can be about 10 degrees. If you like to take a walk by the sea in the evening, remember to bring a jacket.
3⃣️Transportation on Dongtou Island is quite convenient. If you're not driving, you can take a Didi taxi. Of course, driving is the most convenient way to get around, and it's easy to get to various attractions. There are also plenty of parking lots, so you don't need to worry too much about parking.
4⃣️If you want to visit islands other than the main island, such as Luxi Island, you need to check the ferry schedules for cars/people in advance, get to the dock early to line up. The return trips in the afternoon are fewer and earlier, so if you're not staying overnight, make sure to keep an eye on the time.
5⃣️You can choose to visit some of the state-owned scenic spots in Dongtou: Wanghailou, Xiandieyan (Dasha Bay), and Banpingshan. If you're with children, we recommend going to the Fairy Tale Courtyard in Xiandieyan, where the fairy-tale animal scenes can keep them entertained for a long time.
6⃣️Recommended beaches for sea viewing include: Dasha Bay Beach, Xishantou Beach, and Yuebanwan Beach, all of which are quite clean.
7⃣️The seafood in Dongtou is now very fresh. You can choose to go to the 'Seafood Distribution Center' where you can buy and cook on the spot, or 'Jiuting Seafood Street' which has many seafood stalls.
8⃣️If you want to try some local snacks in Dongtou, you can go to the central street of Dongtou, where the famous Haha Soup Noodle House and Furong Fish Balls are located.
9⃣️On a clear day, you can go to Meihua Reef, Sea Moon Dyke, etc. to watch a sunset, and see the Orange Sea, which is super romantic.
🔟The white windmills in Dongtou are lined up beautifully. You can take pictures on the way to Meihua Reef.

Zhejiang's most beautiful island.
There are many islands in Zhejiang. After visiting so many places, I finally saw the truly blue sea. This is Nanji Island in Pingyang, Wenzhou.
Drive to Aojiang Bus Terminal, and friends without cars can also take the high-speed rail conveniently.
The biggest worry when taking two kids on a boat, but who knew that the spacious and comfortable Nanqi 99 was completely stable and no one got seasick. After a boat ride of over two hours, we arrived at Nanqi Island, where the beautiful sunset was a pleasant surprise.
We stayed at the Blue Hotel, but there is a short distance to walk to the beach. The sand is fine and clear, and the sea becomes even bluer against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds. Surprisingly, the sea water on other islands in Zhejiang is quite yellow.
Watching the sunrise is quite tiring, so I suggest staying at Sanwei Pan for the first day, which is very beautiful, and staying near Dashaoao for the second day.
Finally, I want to say that the weather must be good when going to the island, otherwise the experience will be completely different.

Dasha is the most beautiful beach in Dongtou, also known as "Golden Beach". The beach is 800 meters long and 600 meters wide. It is a shell sand. The sand is pure iron plate sand, hard and delicate, and there is no obvious trace after stepping. The shape of the big sand owl is similar to the shape of a dragonfly. When the sea water ebbs, it will reveal the beach. There are many interesting landscapes here, such as "sea seal stone", "eagle catching chicks", "tiger tiger lying guard" and so on. Among them, the tiger is lying on the sea, not far from the sea is Huyu Island, which is the iconic scenery of Dasha.
The upper part of the bath is covered with a cobblestone belt; it is an ideal swimming pool and windsurfing and leather boat training base; in addition, it can also be used for painting and painting, which is very suitable for the whole family to play together. The ticket price here is 50 yuan, and the best time to visit is summer. In the farmer's market in Beijiao Town, the county bus has a shuttle bus to Dashayu Beach, and the fare is 1.5 yuan. The one-way local person who hits is 20 yuan. Foreigners are 30-40 yuan.
