2024 Pingtan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in November)
Pingtan is located in the southern tip of Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, just across the straight from Taiwan. On the Mainland, it is the closest place to Taiwan. Pingtan has a long history but development started fairly late, therefore there are still quite a number of original buildings on the island; the island attracts many visitors every summer. Pingtan is known as the “Island of Thousand Reefs." The county has 126 islands with names and 702 reefs. The wide sea area is connected to the outer ocean, and many islands and reefs are dotted in between; this makes the seas in Pingtan very beautiful.

💧 March-June: Noctiluca scintillans Blue Tears
The peak period for Noctiluca scintillans Blue Tears is April to May each year. They usually appear after 7 PM, and can be seen once it gets dark. These Blue Tears appear in patches and can last for over an hour, with higher levels lasting even longer.
💧 June-September: Sea sparkle Blue Tears
The best time to observe sea sparkle Blue Tears is from July to August each year. They generally appear after 9 PM, and most of the time, they can only be seen by stepping on the sand at the beach. Sea sparkle Blue Tears are distributed in spots, and high-level occurrences are rare, so they are usually of a lower level.

Cherrie Angeles ( The Philippines ) Pingtan, Fuzhou!
Going back to Zhangzhou we decided to stopped by Pingtan Island. This island is very peaceful I supposed and I was interested in there houses most of all I just find it great thinking. I suppose it is windy in that island so residents put some stones on their roofs. I think it's fascinating they different houses exterior. I think their main source of income is fishing. I can see a lot of fishing boats and of course some seafood around. It's good to know that there is a place like that in China. It's also popular for it's rock forms it's similar to Bali I would say like there are some interesting rocks where you can the water in it and splashing all over. It is good to travel by car you can stop by anywhere you like. The weather wasn't good at that time though.

The picture is an old one, but Aman is still the same Aman.
The weather in November
is a bit drizzly and rainy.
On a rainy day, staying in the room,
watching the wind blow and the rain fall on the windowsill,
and the distant sea has a bit of a hazy beauty.
Make a cup of hot tea and enjoy the tranquility.
The room is clean and comfortable.
Even on a rainy day, there's no need to go anywhere.
Lying leisurely on the soft big bed,
what a wonderful feeling.
You'll only know after visiting Pingtan... Avoiding pitfalls and sharing suggestions.
✈ After arriving in Fuzhou, you can play for 1–2 days, then take the high-speed train directly to the island.
On the island, you can choose to rent a car for self-driving or take a public (about) bus.
If you have plenty of time, you can play in Pingtan for two days. If you walk and stop, the north line will take a day. But if you only have one day! Just play the north line directly~ It's definitely worth it.
