To be honest! Once you've been to Weihai, the after-effects are really too great!!!

Weihai 3-day, 2-night super guide: Weihai, this romantic city nestled on the coast of the Yellow Sea, has both magnificent sea views and the gentleness of everyday life. Whether you're traveling with your best friends, dating as a couple, or a travel enthusiast who loves photography, this carefully organized 3-day, 2-night guide will take you to deeply appreciate the unique charm of Weihai! 🌊 Best time to travel May–October is the golden time to visit Weihai. In summer, you can fully enjoy the beach and waves and play in the sea; in spring and fall, the climate is pleasant, making it ideal for cycling along the coast and feeling the gentle sea breeze. 🗓️ Itinerary Day 1: Encounter the romance of the coastal road Morning - Torch 8th Street: Navigate to the intersection of Torch 8th Street and Huanhai Road, which is known as "Weihai's Little Kamakura." It is recommended to arrive before 8am, when there are fewer people and the scenery is beautiful. Looking down the slope, the blue sea and the streets create a Japanese-style atmosphere, and you can take great photos anywhere. - International Bathing Beach: It is a 5-minute walk from Torch 8th Street. The sand is fine and soft. You can lie on a deck chair and enjoy a leisurely time, or experience the thrill of a jet ski. There are more tourists in the summer afternoon. If you want to enjoy the beach quietly, you can choose to come again the next morning. Noon It is recommended to go to **Northern Dumpling King (Bathing Beach Branch)** for lunch. The signature dish in the store is mackerel dumplings. The fish is fresh and tender, and the soup is rich. The seafood platter brings together a variety of seasonal seafood, which is original and authentic. Afternoon Rent an electric car with a range of more than 60 km and start your cycling trip along the coastal road. Recommended route: Jinhaiwan Pier → Cat Head Mountain No. 2 Viewing Platform → Half Moon Bay Beach. While riding, the sea breeze is blowing, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. The key is to check in at Cat Head Mountain No. 2 Viewing Platform, where the cliff sea view is amazing; Half Moon Bay Beach is a great place to take photos with sailboats in the background. Evening Go to Xiaoshidao to watch the sunset. Navigate to the wild beach near "JOJO Coffee", which is free and has few people. When the sun sets, take silhouette photos on the rocks, or put on a flowing long dress to easily take atmospheric photos. Accommodation: It is recommended to stay in a seaside homestay around the International Bathing Beach, where you can see the sea when you open the curtains and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Day 2: A dual experience of history and islands Morning Take a boat to Liugong Island. The ticket is CNY 122 (including round-trip ferry tickets). The operating hours are 7:30–15:30. It is recommended to depart as early as possible to avoid the peak of queuing. There are many ways to play on the island. You can visit the Sino-Japanese War Museum to learn about that magnificent history; visit the Donghong Fort to feel the weight of history; you can also take a cable car to overlook the entire island and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Noon Come to **Zhenliwei Korean Cuisine (Hanlefang Branch)** for lunch. Highly recommended is the spine hot pot. The large pieces of spine are stewed until they are soft and tasty, and the taste is rich when paired with vegetables and rice cakes; Korean fried rice cakes are chewy and have a sweet and spicy taste that makes people can't stop eating them. Afternoon - Weihai Park: There is a landmark giant "photo frame" sculpture here—the Painting in Painting Sculpture. Standing in the photo frame and taking a photo with the sea is like framing the beautiful scenery in the painting. Ride or walk along the coastal path and feel the leisurely life of the locals. - Yuehai Park: The white lighthouse and the seaside swing are popular check-in spots here. At sunset, the golden sunlight shines on the lighthouse, filling the romantic atmosphere and making it a great time to take pictures. Evening The night market is a good place to feel the local atmosphere. Hanlefang Night Market brings together many Korean snacks, such as Korean fried chicken and seaweed rice; Oulefang Night Market is full of local characteristics. Grilled oysters are plump and juicy, spicy fried rice cakes are fragrant, and Weihai braised food has a unique taste. Everything is worth a try. Day 3: In-depth exploration of niche secret places Morning Go to Nashan Sea Diamond Beach, which is about 40 minutes by taxi from the city center, or you can take Intercity Bus Route 4. The sand here is white and fine, and it is known as "the most beautiful beach in Weihai." Take photos at the Triangle Cabin Coffee Shop, and any photo you take is an ins-style blockbuster; stroll along the beach, feel the caress of the sea, and be comfortable and free. Noon It is recommended to enjoy a buffet at Xianghai Howard Johnson Resort Hotel. The price is CNY 128/person. Remember to go early to grab the best location by the sea view window. The buffet is rich in variety, with seafood, hot dishes, and desserts. Enjoy a double feast for the eyes and taste while dining and enjoying the sea view. Afternoon Take a boat from Nashan Sea Pier to Jiming Island. The round-trip ferry ticket is CNY 88, and there are many boat trips. There is a fishing village on the island that is the same as the one in "Where Are We Going, Dad?", which is full of life. You can check in at the cliffside coffee shop and enjoy the invincible sea view while tasting coffee; hike along the island loop trail, which takes about 2 hours to circle the island, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. Return trip It is recommended to return to the city center before 18:00, pack your bags, and end this unforgettable Weihai trip. 📌 Useful tips - Transportation: Weihai's attractions are scattered. It is recommended to rent electric cars or bicycles to travel freely within the city; for long-distance travel, you can choose to take a taxi or public transportation, and online car-hailing is also very convenient. - Food Avoidance: Avoid eating seafood at high prices in food stalls in scenic spots. You can go to Heqing Pier Morning Market to select fresh and affordable seafood, and then find nearby restaurants to process it, which is super cost-effective. - Dress: The wind is strong by the sea, so it is recommended to bring a coat to protect against the wind and keep warm; at the same time, take sun protection measures, and hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen are essential. White and light-colored clothes go better with the sea view, and photos look better. - Hidden gameplay: Check the tide table in advance and go to Shuangdao Xishan Catching Sea Garden at low tide. Bring a small shovel and bucket to experience the fun of digging razor clams and picking up shells, and get a full of seaside surprises! Come to Weihai for a romantic date with the sea!
