Another off-the-beaten-path island with few people and beautiful scenery unlocked

【Guishan Island, Guangdong】Known as the little Kamakura of Guangdong, Guishan Island offers a truly authentic experience. Here's the most practical travel guide for a two-day, one-night trip! ⏰Tour Time: Two days and one night is more than enough 🚢Transport: Take a boat from Xiangzhou Port in Zhuhai. Search for Xiangzhou Port on the official WeChat account to book tickets in advance. A round trip costs 100 yuan, totaling 200 yuan. You can head there early to take photos on the nearby roads and even see Zhuhai's iconic landmark, the Day and Moon Shell. If you have enough time, you can take a photo with it~ 🏠Accommodation: Guishan Island is small, and the accommodations are all centrally located. For convenience, you can choose a hotel near the pier, which usually costs between two to three hundred yuan per night 🍚Food & Drink: In the morning, you can have some snacks near the pier. Last time we went to a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, and the taste was really good! It wasn't the perfunctory kind you find in tourist areas! In the evening, you can try the local seafood🦀️. You can buy it and have it cooked at a restaurant, or order directly from the restaurant. We calculated that the price difference isn't much, at most twenty to thirty yuan. Recommendation: We chose Jiangxing Seafood Restaurant that day. Although it's hidden in an alley, it's still quite popular, and the taste is good 📷Travel Tips: On the first day, you can go to the lighthouse on the right side of the pier to take photos. If the weather is good, the sunset is quite nice. It's recommended to follow the island ring road to Guishan Warship Memorial Park. The entrance corner has stones naturally forming a frame, with the sunset's orange glow and the blue sea creating a stark contrast, giving you that blockbuster feel in minutes! If you arrive early, you can walk around the park first and come back later to take photos (no need to return the same way) ~ On the second day, you can take a tram at twenty-five past to go to the top to watch the sunrise. It's best to contact in advance, as the locals know the best time to go up the mountain. When coming down by tram, stop at Aimin Road, where you can see the two forked streets known as 'little Kamakura'~ It's also great for taking photos! Make sure not to mix up the itinerary for the two days, because the slope at Aimin Road is really steep, and it's too tiring to climb up by yourself😫 📮 Summary: Although Guishan Island is not the most outstanding among the islands I've visited, if you're in Guangzhou or Zhuhai and your schedule is tight, but you still want to see the sea, it really is a good choice! When we went, I don't know if it was because we missed the holidays or what, but there were really few people, which is perfect for finding a corner to stare at the sea and daydream. You can also catch some small seafood at the landing point of Guishan Warship Memorial Park~ Remember to bring good sun protection! If you're on a day trip, remember to buy your return boat ticket in advance!
