The sea here is comparable to the Maldives and is more suitable for Chinese babies.
😍Wow! Yantai Yangma Island, a breathtaking fairyland😍
Who would have thought that Yantai Yangma Island is so beautiful! I was really amazed by its jelly-like sea, speechless😲!
On sunny days, the sea surface presents a blue-green gradient color, and those who don't know might think I went to the Maldives😎!
It is located on Yantai Yangma Island (No. 99, Tianma Road, Muping District, Yantai City), and the entrance is free👏!
Let me share the route with you👇:
D1: Haichang Fisherman's Wharf - Binhai Middle Road → Suochengli - Chaoyang Street → Yantai Snack Street
D2: Lonely Whale - Golden Beach Seaside Park → Yangma Island D3: Penglai Pavilion → Wencheng Castle → Return
There are also some nice attractions, such as Zhang Island, which has Island Letters & Internet-famous Serrated Cave, and Spring Sea Fishing Wharf; Lotus Sunset is an excellent place to watch the sunset, and you can also go to the beach😜!
For accommodation, I recommend staying near Yantai University, where there is a snack street right outside the door, and the transportation is super convenient🤩!
For travel, the island is very large, so it is recommended to drive by yourself, as the attractions are scattered and the distances between them are far. If you rent an electric bike, park the car in one place and rent an electric bike to tour around the island, which costs CNY 20 per hour. It takes about 3 hours to walk around the island😃.
Pay attention when checking in👇! Photos: The rock cave at Lotus Sunset is super photogenic, so let the photographer get into the cave and take pictures outside. Clothing: Long dress/slippers/sunglasses, fairies must wear long dresses! Wearing slippers to get into the water is really convenient! Sun protection: Sunscreen/sun hat/sun protection clothing/umbrella
Don't miss the food either, as you can eat fresh seafood at any restaurant on the island, which is so delicious🤤!
But do you know that Yangma Island has more than just seafood as a specialty food😜!
First of all, the mackerel dumplings🥟 on Yangma Island are amazing! The fresh and tender mackerel meat filling is full of juice when you take a bite, and who wouldn't be confused after eating it😲?
There are also seaweed buns😁, with a unique taste that is simply irresistible! Fresh seaweed with pork filling, so fragrant👏!
The fisherman's big steamed buns are also one of the specialties😃, big and fluffy, with a light sweet taste🤩!
In addition, the local barbecue is also unique😜, grilled horse mackerel, grilled squid, the taste, tut tut tut...
Family, come to Yangma Island to experience this beautiful scenery!

Yangma Island - Yantai
Yangma Island is located in the Yellow Sea, Muping District, Yantai City,of Shandong Province. sometimes referred to as “Horse Island”.
Me and my friends drove to Yangma Island. There are a few nice tourist spots with wonderful view.
First we were amazed by the sunset and we spent some time watching the sun hiding behind the horizon. It was very relaxing and nice but after a while we were trying to find a place where we can get coffee unfortunately nowhere really decent for coffee. It didn't take us too long to understand that next time better bring our own water/drinks and just enjoy the view.
Address: No.99, Tianma Road, Muping Yantai.

Yantai is so beautiful.
Yantai is a beautiful coastal city with rich natural scenery and historical culture, suitable for all types of tourists.
Natural Scenery
Yantai's natural scenery is one of its biggest highlights. Golden Beach Coastal Park is a great place to enjoy the magnificent view of the sea, with soft and delicate sand, suitable for family fun. Haichang Fisherman's Wharf is a popular check-in place, with a walking boardwalk and panoramic views that are unforgettable. In addition, Yangma Island is a quiet and beautiful beach, suitable for relaxing.
History and Culture
Yantai's history and culture are also rich and colorful. Yantai Mountain is a great place to learn about Yantai's history and culture, with many historical buildings and museums. Chaoyang Street is a European-style pedestrian street full of historical charm. Suochengli has preserved half a century of Yantai's history, making it an ideal place for photography and experiencing Yantai's history and culture.
Seafood Guide
Yantai's seafood activities are also very popular. The best time for seafood is 1-2 hours after low tide, and you can check the low tide time through tools such as "Big Fish Tide Table" or "Tide Table Elf". Seafood locations include Jiahekou, Golden Bay Hotel, Moon Bay, etc. in Zhifu District, and the second beach and Yantai University beach in Laishan District. Seafood tools include small shovels, iron rakes, fish nets, crab clips, buckets, water shoes, and rubber gloves. It is recommended that beginners follow the crowd and pay attention to safety.
Food Recommendations
Yantai's seafood is one of its specialties and should not be missed. Local seafood restaurants offer a variety of fresh and delicious seafood, such as braised fresh fish, prawns, sea snails, crabs, etc. In addition, Yantai's local specialties such as Korean-style seaweed rice are also worth a try.
Transportation Information
Yantai's transportation is very convenient. Penglai Airport has buses directly to the city center, and major attractions can be reached by bus. Self-driving tours are also a good option, but you need to pay attention to parking and traffic conditions.

Yangma Island | A Dreamy Encounter with the Jelly Sea
| A Dreamy Encounter with the Jelly Sea👍Recommended reasons:
Yangma Island is stunning!😍 The jelly sea is amazing, and the view is perfect on sunny days and at high tide. There are many popular photo spots where you can take as many photos as you like. You can enjoy the jelly sea in the morning and go to the beach in the afternoon. There are many activities to enjoy, making it a hidden gem for travelers!✨
🌟Attraction introduction:
There is a popular swing and a free parking lot at the north entrance of the beach. Wanghai Fisherman is nearby, offering car rental, dining, and homestay services. The only beach on the island is also here. The Zhang Island Scenic Area has a popular photo spot with a large conch🐚. The white castle slope leading to the sea is a beautiful photo spot. Yubi Garden and Island Diary are great places for photos📷. The popular cave and glass house on the cliff at Lotus Sunset are unique.
🚉Transportation:
You can rent an electric scooter on Yangma Island🛵. We recommend renting from Wanghai Fisherman. A two-wheel electric scooter is only CNY 29.9 with no time limit. The price is very affordable, and the service is excellent. They also offer free storage. The bus terminal is nearby, and the last bus leaves the island at 18:30 every day🚌. Taxis are also convenient. However, be careful not to be deceived by online car-hailing drivers or taxi drivers🚕. Some drivers do not take you to your destination (you can report them to 12123 Traffic Management), some take you to car rental points with high commissions, and some tricycles are cheap but old and unsafe.
✅Travel route: Start from the jelly sea and head east to west along the coast. First, go to the north entrance of the beach, then to the Zhang Island Scenic Area, followed by the white castle slope, Yubi Garden, and Island Diary, and finally to Lotus Sunset.
💰Cost: Rent an electric scooter for CNY 29.9 with no time limit.
📝Other tips: On cloudy days, look for areas with many white stones to see the jelly sea, such as Chunguang Fishing Pier and Lotus Sunset. The jelly sea may appear on Yangma Island from 07:10 to 11:30 on November 14 (not on cloudy days). The low tide is from 14:20 to 15:50. The sunrise is at 06:32🌅, and the sunset is at 16:43🌇. If you can't ride an electric scooter, you can rent a car. 🌟

Yantai: The unique charm of a captivating coastline.
🌸 At first glance, Yantai is like a shy girl, hidden in the depths of the sea, waiting for you to discover her beauty. I once thought that the coastal scenery of Qingdao was already enchanting enough, but it wasn't until I set foot on the mysterious coastline of Yantai that I realized its beauty captivated me even more. Yantai, a city of charm that makes you linger and yearn for more! 🌟
🌅 My first stop was the First Bathing Beach, where the golden sand and shimmering sea made me feel like I was in paradise. Then, I strolled to Moon Bay, listening to the sound of the waves and watching the sunset. At that moment, I felt a sense of tranquility and beauty. Next, I visited the East Fort, Dongshan Pier, and the Second Bathing Beach, each of which left me lingering. The Fisherman's Wharf and the Yellow Sea Pearl made me feel the romance and prosperity of Yantai.
🕌 On the second day, I immersed myself in the retro charm of the 1920 Cultural District, as if I had traveled back in time. Yantai Mountain and Chaoyang Street gave me a taste of the city's historical charm. Sochengli Street and Housha Square made me feel the local life. The sunset at Golden Beach was mesmerizing, and at that moment, I felt like I was the center of the world.
On the third day, I went to Yangma Island, rented a scooter, and rode along the seaside, feeling the freedom and romance. The scenery of Yangma Island is picturesque, with gentle sea breezes and waves. At that moment, I felt like the protagonist of this world. The scenery here is poetic and picturesque, making it the perfect backdrop for photos at any time.
👍 Yantai has many must-visit places, such as the Lonely Whale, Haichang Fisherman's Wharf, Yellow Sea Pearl, Yantai Mountain, Xincheng North Street, and Yangma Island. These places not only have stunning scenery but also have a rich historical and cultural heritage.
🏩 As for accommodation, I recommend staying near the Yantai University Snack Street. It is close to the seaside, with convenient transportation and a wide variety of food options. Whether you want to enjoy the scenery or experience local life, this place will leave you with unforgettable memories.
Overall, Yantai is a city worth visiting. Whether you want to enjoy the scenery or experience local life, it will give you a different feeling and memories. Come to Yantai, and you will fall in love with it! 💖💖💖

| Yantai Yangma Island: Chasing the Sunset
🎉This time, we went on a spontaneous trip with friends!
We drove to Yantai's treasure—Yangma Island! 🏖️
For this trip, we chose the right way to travel—self-driving.
It's definitely the best way to explore this beautiful island! 🚗
🌅Sunset is the most gentle time on Yangma Island.
We drove slowly along the winding coastline, with golden sunlight shining on the sparkling sea. Every frame looked like a movie scene. 📸 If you have time, we recommend driving around the island. There are beautiful views around every corner, and you won't be able to stop taking photos! 📷
👭With friends laughing and chatting, we felt the sea breeze blowing gently. But don't forget, the island wind can be a bit chilly! Especially in winter, remember to wear more clothes. Down jackets, scarves, and gloves are all necessary. We want both warmth and beautiful scenery! 🧣🧤
💡Tips: Remember to check your vehicle in advance, fill up the gas, and bring enough water. After all, safety is the most important thing besides the beautiful scenery! 🛣️ Some sections of the road on the island are narrow, so be extra careful when driving. While enjoying the fun of driving, take care of your companions too! 👭👬

Yantai, Shandong | Yangma Island is the most worthwhile attraction.
🌈Attraction Features: Yangma Island is known for its clear waters, fine sand beaches, and abundant seagull ecology, as if in a natural fairyland. The island also holds many interesting historical stories and relics waiting for visitors to explore and discover.
🎟️Tickets: 0!!
🕐️Opening Hours: Don't leave too late, no night lights
💗Other Tips:
Yangma Island is so beautiful, the sky is very clear, even after the rain, the sky is endless blue
The guide said that cars outside cannot drive on the island, but in fact, they can. We also rented electric cars for convenience (Strawberry Bear Tricycle 100r, Three-person Electric Car with Canopy 100r). As it turned out, it was really hard to find parking spaces for cars, and electric cars were much more flexible. I've never heard so many horns in my life. I've heard all the horns in Shandong for a few days. Pedestrians are never allowed to cross the zebra crossing in the city, and they accelerate. When driving, seeing pedestrians honking and rolling down the windows to scold passersby, the drivers on the island are even more aggressive. The road is already small, but they still honk and overtake.
Goodbye, Shandong, the land of aggressive drivers.

Went to Yantai, I played everything
Went to Yantai, what did I play?
First, let me tell you what I ate. Picture 2⃣️ (Chilechuan) Everything I ordered was delicious, no disappointments. (Most restaurants here take a break at noon, I was too hungry so I chose this one)
Picture 3⃣️ (800 Miles) The sea intestine rice was delicious, it was my first time trying it and I thought it was pretty good. Picture 4⃣️ You must try Shandong cherries when you come to Shandong, this variety is called Crystal, it's really sweeter than Meizao! The only downside is that they bruise easily, and they don't look good after bruising.
After talking about food, it's time for me to take a stroll.
Picture 5⃣️ is Yantai Mountain, it costs 10💰 to take the elevator up to see the view, it only takes two minutes to come down. If you want to take a photo, it's worth going up, it's not expensive. Pictures 6⃣️ and 7⃣️ were taken on Yantai Mountain, the scenery is quite beautiful, worth a visit.
Pictures 8⃣️ and 9⃣️ are Chaoyang Street, where you can eat and stroll around, taking pictures. These small buildings are very beautiful.
Picture 1⃣️0⃣️ was taken in Suochengli, it's a small ancient city. Although it's commercialized, without commerce, there would be no people, and it wouldn't be interesting. It's nice to stroll around here in the evening. Picture 1⃣️1⃣️ is the apple juice I bought here, super delicious! 10💰 is not expensive and acceptable.
Pictures 1⃣️2⃣️, 1⃣️3⃣️, and 1⃣️4⃣️ are Yangma Island.
After getting on the island, I suggest renting a small electric vehicle, otherwise, it's really tiring to walk. I rented one with a canopy for 100💰, unlimited time, otherwise, it's very sunny. I don't know if this price is expensive, but we went during the off-season, and I think it's okay. Yangma Island has many attractions, but they are all by the sea, I think it's just for taking pictures. Later, I got tired and found a café to have a cup of coffee and enjoy the air conditioning, otherwise, it would be really hot.
Picture 1⃣️6⃣️ is Haichang Fisherman's Wharf.
I came here around five in the afternoon, enjoying the sea breeze and relaxing, it felt pretty good. Sitting on the steps listening to the sound of the waves 🌊, it felt like the sea can cure all unhappiness.
In Yantai for these few days, it was really a special forces trip, looking around and taking pictures everywhere. There were too many places I wanted to go, so I felt very tired, and there are still many places I haven't been to. But they are all by the sea, so they should be similar. (I didn't go to the Yantai University night market, a bit regretful, I will definitely go to eat next time!)
Yantai gave me the impression of being very clean, similar to the northern climate, not humid, maybe because its sea faces north, suitable for a northern baby like me. I'm glad I went when it wasn't peak season, the experience was great! The driver said that during the peak season, everywhere is crowded, and hotel prices double.
Set off happily, the world is so big, be a person who is happy every day!

KYLE REED
Coming to Yantai without visiting Yangma Island is like not coming at all~
Many people visit Yangma Island but miss the stunning Jelly Sea. Today, I am giving you a super detailed guide 📖 to ensure your trip to Yangma Island is perfect!
🌟 To see the Jelly Sea, you must meet the following conditions:
🌊 High tide: The Jelly Sea is absolutely stunning during high tide 😍! When the tide is low, the rocks are exposed, which affects the view. It's more suitable for exploring the sea rather than just watching it.
☀ Sunny day: Don't go on a cloudy day. The water will be murky, and the photo effects will be greatly reduced 📷.
🌬 No strong wind or heavy rain the day before: This is the most important point! If there were strong winds and waves the day before, debris from the seabed would be stirred up, making the water murky.
🚗 About travel options:
It's highly recommended to drive yourself to Yangma Island! The island is about 20 kilometers around, and driving is convenient and free. Parking is also easy 🅿.
Do not choose to rent an electric scooter 🛵! Not only is it expensive, but you will also be exposed to the sun, and the rental time is limited. If the battery runs out halfway, it will be very embarrassing 😖.
If you can't drive yourself, then choose to hire a car 👏! It provides pick-up and drop-off services, and it's more cost-effective than renting an electric scooter, saving you the cost of taxis.
In short, choose the right travel method for yourself to fully enjoy the fun of visiting Yangma Island 😜!
