At Shanwei's Jinhai Bay, there's a seaside lifestyle called "sea yoo."

As the setting sun paints the clouds in hues of honey, twilight, like melting amber, gently seeps into Jinhai Bay along the horizon. The Windmill Chapel, amidst the shimmering waves, resembles an elegant harp. Standing on my eleventh-floor balcony, I listened to the wind's song, the rich aroma of coffee still lingering on my fingertips. In Shanwei, there's a seaside way of life called "sea yoo." There are countless ways to live by the sea, but "sea yoo" has mastered the art of blending romance and everyday life into a unique ritual. A two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen, refrigerator, washing machine, and a spacious balcony offers poetic views of Jinhai Bay. The fragrance of seafood and rosemary dances in the air, as if your home has been teleported to the seaside. "Sea yoo" offers a variety of room styles in Jinhai Bay. This time, I spent a few days on the 11th floor of the "Listening to the Sea" building. As the name suggests, here, you can truly hear the whispers of the waves. Every night, soaking in the bathtub and gazing at the stars, the moon-kissed sound of waves penetrated the concrete and steel, transforming into a sensation like silk against my skin. Coincidentally, someone set off dazzling fireworks on the beach by the Windmill Chapel, startling the moonlight on the sea, shattering it into a thousand silver scales, then instantly illuminating it into a galaxy of stars. When I awoke from this dreamlike state, it was already the next morning. I recalled how the layered sound of waves lulled me to sleep in the soft bed. The window revealed a serene and elegant blue, like opening a telegram from an underwater post office, its words pulsating with the ebb and flow of time. As our senses gradually dull within the concrete jungle, there are places that stubbornly preserve the purest dialogue between humans and the sea. The anxieties scattered by the sea breeze, the solitude that rises and falls with the waves, seem like gentle foreshadowing by nature itself. This is the meaning of spending a few days living by the sea. All emotions refract into a thousand possibilities on the horizon in the morning light. This is why I felt a pang of reluctance as I departed.
