I'm back from Beihai! Don't wear a short skirt, I'm serious...
There are endless things to explore in Beihai, and it's relatively affordable, but be aware of some common traps.
For first-time visitors to Beihai, it's important to plan your itinerary in advance.
Today, I'm going to share some of my real experiences in Beihai✍🏻, hoping to provide a reference for your trip and ensure that you have a pleasant and hassle-free journey.
·
💡Tips
1. Choose Beihai Station as your high-speed rail terminal, as it's closer to the city center and more convenient than Beihai North Station.
2. Avoid taking illegal taxis outside the airport or high-speed rail station, as they may try to sell you hotels, restaurants, or tour packages at exorbitant prices.
3. Avoid taking photos with people in strange cartoon costumes on the beach or at scenic spots, as this may involve additional fees.
4. The pearl jewelry at scenic spots is often of uneven quality. It's recommended to buy souvenirs from street vendors' carts at night, as the prices are more reasonable.
5. The prices of local specialties at scenic spots are usually higher. It's recommended to go directly to the supermarket, where some items also offer mail-order services.
6. The sun is strong in Beihai, so it's wise to bring a sun umbrella.
7. Cycling along the Silver Beach is a great way to enjoy the sea view, but remember to compare prices at different rental services, as you may find a better deal.
8. Guantouling is a great place to watch the sunset, while Qiaogang Beach is a good place to watch the sunrise. Don't get them confused.
9. During peak season, scenic spots may be busy, so it's recommended to book in advance on relevant platforms.
10. When traveling to Weizhou Island, choose Beihai International Passenger Port for the ferry. There are frequent departures, and ticket prices vary depending on the cabin class.
11. While you can taste the so-called specialty dried fruits for free, they are charged by weight and are expensive. Not worth it.

Beihai Silver Beach
Facing the sea, enjoying the spring scenery, is your choice to go and see the color of the sea and listen to the sound of the waves? As an inland person, the sea I long for must have jellyfish-colored seawater, blue sky, white sand beaches, and allow me to sit by the sea and daydream. The picture was taken in Beihai, Guangxi, the southernmost sea in China.

The Silver Beach!
Beihai Silver Beach sits just eight KM from downtown Beihai and stretches for many KM. The sand on the beach is the finest soft sand, which will shine silver light under the sunlight, hence the name Silver Beach. The beach has both the fine and white sand, soft waves, clean seawater and safe environment.
It is free of charge and we spent the entire day there to enjoy swimming in the water, playing in the sand and sunbathing.
I also had the opportunity to fly my drone over the sand and the water to get some panoramic views of this wonderful seaside. Sanya is popular, but Beihai is just as good and a lot cheaper!

Beihai.
It is recommended to visit during the off-season. Hotel prices are around 100–200 CNY during the off-season, and at least 500–600 CNY during the peak season. Beihai Gold Beach is not worth visiting, so it is recommended to go straight to Silver Beach. Tianya Haijiao is a great place to watch the sunset. Some places have a strong fishy smell. Be careful not to be scammed when buying seafood.
The first recommendation is Beihai Silver Beach, one of the most famous beaches in Beihai.
The second recommendation is Beihai Underwater World, an aquarium located in Haiyue Square in Beihai City, where you can see various marine animals up close, such as sawfish, sea dragons, and sea snakes.
If you are interested in history and culture, you can visit the Beihai Museum, which displays a wealth of cultural relics and history, showcasing the historical changes and cultural heritage of Beihai.
Beihai is also a great place to try delicious food. The local seafood is very famous, especially the seafood stalls, where you can taste fresh seafood. Beihai also has many local snacks, such as snail noodles, rice noodles, and monk fruit.
It is recommended to try a sea activity in Beihai, such as taking a boat trip or sea fishing. You can compare prices from different companies.

Beihai! Only 100 per person!! A homestay with a slide! Worth it.
Enjoy the sea view from your room, and watch the sunrise without leaving your room. So nice!
No pressure for students! Very comfortable.
The homestay is very close to the beach, just a few steps away. The old street is right outside the door, so convenient! It's very convenient to go to Jintan Zixiawan, one beach a day, always playing! It's also very convenient to take a taxi to Beihai Silver Beach to catch the sea~ There are many authentic delicacies downstairs, and it's easy to eat and shop!
Lying on the bed in the room for a whole morning, staring at the sea view outside the window, it's really healing. The light-colored room is very beautiful for taking photos!

#beachaholic
Beihai Silver Beach, located 8 kilometers (5 miles) from the center of Beihai City, stretches for about 24 kilometers from east to west. The width of the beach is 30-3 000 meters. The sand on the beach is the finest quartz sand, which shimmers with silvery light under the sunlight, hence the name Silver Beach. The flat and soft beach is considered the “greatest beach in China" because of the fine and white sand, soft waves, clear sea water and a safe shark-free environment.
Beihai Silver Beach, China, is an ideal swimming beach and holiday resort. The beach itself is large enough to accommodate a lot of people swimming at the same time. The water here has a strong ability to self-purify. Standing on the seashore, you can even see the landscape at a depth of 2 meters underwater. Swimming here is also very safe due to the slow tide and the absence of dangerous marine life. For the convenience of swimmers, luggage storage and a shower can be used here as well.
Even more exciting activities on the beach include parasailing and motor boating, as well as fun beach sports such as beach volleyball and beach soccer. In addition, there is Silver Beach Park with many entertainment projects such as bumper boats and go-karts.
On the beach there is the largest musical sculptural fountain in Asia, which is worth a visit. The sculpture in the shape of a ball has a height of 23 meters and a diameter of 20 meters. This huge stainless steel sculpture symbolizes the great pearl.
In addition, an ecological square has been built near the beach. This area with a unique architectural solution includes more than 30 pavilions and houses. On this square you can see a Coconut grove and a rare bird show, a customs show of Vietnam and Russia and performances by parasailers.

I stayed in a garden in Beihai and didn't want to check out...
My sister and I were amazed as soon as we arrived!!
We actually found a secret garden hidden in Silver Beach‼️
The entire homestay courtyard is full of flowers and plants🍃
The decoration is really thoughtful😭
⛲️It also has a separate swimming pool
If you don't want to go to the crowded beach, you can lie flat in the homestay
I don't want to go home🥹
📍The location is at Silver Beach in Beihai
It's so cool to walk to the beach in 2 minutes!!
I highly recommend sisters who come to Beihai for the National Day...

Beihai!! Don't ask, just go.
During my stay in Beihai, I was very satisfied with the hotels I stayed in. The hotels brought a lot of emotional value to my trip. I have to say that I am really good at choosing hotels. I feel that my money is well spent.
1. [Asaka IKEA Yintan Sea View Hotel]
IKEA co-branded minimalist style, the room is very large, with a garden and a separate restaurant. The hotel also has a cinema and a restaurant, as well as an art gallery. I booked a sea view room, so when I woke up in the morning, the sun and the view outside the window were really healing. Except for the location, it is not so convenient to go anywhere by taxi. In other words, the cost performance is very high.
2. [Beihai Neighbor Designer Hotel]
Pastoral style, but the decoration is very ins. As soon as I entered the courtyard, my heart was calm. Lying on the bed in the room, I could see the small lake outside the window. The back door is Liuxia Village. When the sun goes down and it is not so hot, go to Guantouling Beach to see the sea. After playing in Qiaogang Fengqing Street, I think it is very convenient to live here.
3. [Beihai Yintan Mr. Liu Meets Miss Fan Holiday Homestay]
A homestay in a villa area near Yintan, very close to Beihai International Passenger Port. This homestay can pick up and drop off at the high-speed railway station and passenger port. The homestay also has a swimming pool and a room with a projector. The boss lady is super good!!! She also asked us what platform we usually use to watch movies, so she can open a membership. I think the service is greater than the room environment. The breakfast was unexpectedly delicious. The enthusiasm of the boss lady has filled my travel experience.

Food recommendation👍
How can you come to Beihai without eating seafood! Wang Jie Seafood🦞 is the most satisfying meal, it is very photogenic📷!
Not far from Qiaogang, there is a Hainanese-style Qiongda Zaopaku Traditional Hotpot🍲. The soup base is sour and spicy, very appetizing!
Coconut Ji Man🍧, the popular nine-grid signature, super large portion
Grandma's Coconut Chicken, as delicious as the one I had in Hainan😋
Gui Ba Mianmian Ice: The durian ice cream has a super strong durian flavor, so delicious!
If you need souvenirs, go to Xiang Buluo, Beihai Souvenirs, Beihai Local Specialties, this is the place to go

This hotel in Beihai is a must-visit! The Jusong Seaview...
Friends came to Beihai to play🌊🌊🌊
I didn't expect the hotel I chose blindly to be so beautiful. The Jusong Seaview Hotel is really stylish.
The room is a pure French minimalist style, and the light and luxurious style is really good for taking pictures🤳🏻
💁🏻♀️Not only that, the room type of each room is also great.
The concave window can see the scenery outside the window at a glance, and the hotel is equipped with a super large swimming pool🏊🏻♀️It is very suitable for parent-child travel🥰I really like it~
⭐️⭐️⭐️The important thing is: this hotel is about 5 minutes away from Beihai Beach, which is very convenient for travel🌊

Beihai Silver Beach: Romantic and Dreamy, Perfect for Sunset Viewing
The romance of Beihai is half sea and half sunset.
I rushed to the long-desired Silver Beach. As its name suggests, the fine and soft sand glistens with a silver sheen under the sunlight, as if nature has meticulously laid out a silver path leading to the ocean. Stepping barefoot onto it, the delicate warmth instantly enveloped my feet, seemingly dispelling all the fatigue of the journey. The waves gently lapped the shore, bringing bursts of coolness and comfort. I closed my eyes, letting the sea breeze brush against my face. At that moment, time seemed to stand still. Walking along the colorful beach, watching the vibrant traces left by the receding tide, and seeing the sun gradually set over the sea, I couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.
