Nan'ao Island Sunrise Guide: Watch the Sunrise with Him/Her

"The sunrise in the east urges people to wake up, but it is not as good as the sunset that understands my heart." But in Nan'ao Island, watching the sunrise is really healing! Here is a detailed guide to watching the sunrise on Nan'ao Island. Save it now 🌟 🌅Best Viewing Spots 1. Qing'ao Bay North Latitude Line Square: A classic spot to take photos. The sunrise is unobstructed in winter, but may be partially blocked by Dongjiao Mountain in summer. You can overlook the panoramic view. The morning light shines on the sea, matched with the beach and the "Gate of Nature", which is absolutely beautiful! 2. Sanchu Yai Lighthouse: A year-round unobstructed view of the sunrise. The lighthouse, lawn, and sea form a rich picture level. A must-go for photography enthusiasts! 3. Zhuqi Du Bay: The sunrise is unobstructed in summer, but may be partially blocked by mountains in winter. The seascape dotted with fishing boats is full of poetry. There are also campsites nearby, where you can experience camping and watching the sunrise. 4. Windmill Mountain (near Houhuayuan Village): The sunrise is combined with windmill farms and panoramic views of the mountains and sea. Taking backlight photos can easily produce cinematic blockbusters. 🕙Travel Time • Seasonal Differences: In winter (November to February of the following year), Qing'ao Bay has a good sunrise angle and fewer tourists; in summer (May to September), Zhuqi Du Bay has an unobstructed sunrise. • Daily Time: Check the sunrise time in advance (about 6:30 - 7:00 in winter and about 5:30 - 6:00 in summer), and arrive 30 - 60 minutes in advance to capture the "blue hour". 🚗Transportation 1. Self-driving/Chartered Car: The cross-sea bridge connects Shantou city and Nan'ao Island. It takes about 40 minutes to drive there. It is easy to get stuck in traffic during holidays, so it is recommended to go to the island before 5 am to avoid peak hours. 2. Public Transportation: You can first arrive at Shantou city, and then transfer to a bus to Nan'ao Island, but it takes a long time and it is not convenient to go to the sunrise viewing spot. 3. Stay in a hotel/homestay near Qing'ao Bay: The beach is within walking distance, such as "Freedom Land Seaside Camping", which is suitable for those who want a unique experience. 📷Photo Outfit 1. Outfit: Light or bright-colored clothes are more photogenic. You need to prepare a windproof jacket in winter, and it is recommended to wear a hat for sun protection in summer. 2. Taking Pictures: You can bring a small tripod to shoot the sunrise time-lapse; if you want to take silhouette photos, it is recommended to wear a skirt with high saturation, which is super atmospheric! ❗Precautions 1. Check the weather in advance and try to go on a sunny day, otherwise you may not be able to see the sunrise. 2. It is windy by the sea, so pay attention to keep warm. It is recommended to bring a thin coat even in summer. 3. There are many people watching the sunrise, especially during holidays, so arrive early to grab a good spot. 4. Maintain environmental hygiene and take away garbage when leaving. After reading this guide, can't you wait to go to Nan'ao Island to watch the sunrise 🌅? Take action now!
