Fangji Island, located in Dianbai District, Maoming City, is the largest island among the 23 islands in Dianbai. Fangji Island has beautiful scenery, various stone landscapes, beaches, rocks, trees, sunshine and sea water. It's also nice to come here for a day trip. Legend has it that whenever fishermen passed by the island while fishing, they would release a chicken onto the island to pray for a safe journey at sea and a full warehouse of fish and shrimp, hence the name Fangji Island.

👍Most recommended: April is the end of the peak season for blue tears. Recently, the temperature has warmed up (average daily temperature in Maoming is 25-28°C), with southerly winds prevailing and a high probability of clear nights, making for good viewing conditions. 🗓Itinerary: Best viewing spots** 1. **Fangji Island (Qiandao)** - **Highlights**: Clear water, minimal light pollution, and gentle beaches make for great photos. - **Probability**: Recent feedback from netizens suggests occasional sightings of blue light on the west coast (Golden Beach), but it's a matter of luck. - **Transportation**: Take a boat from Bohe Port (last boat at 18:00, advance booking recommended). There are guesthouses on the island for overnight stays. 2. **Romantic Coastline Tourist Resort** - **Advantages**: Well-developed facilities, long sandy beach, open until 22:30 at night. - **Tips**: Resort hotel guests have priority access. Non-guests need to purchase night tickets (around 50 yuan). 3. **China's First Beach** - **Features**: Free entry, but with significant light pollution. It is recommended to walk 1 km eastward towards Hutoushan to avoid crowds. 🚉Transportation guide: - **Self-driving**: Approximately 4-5 hours from Guangzhou/Shenzhen.

It's quite fun. I recommend staying for two or three days to fully enjoy it. You can rent electric scooters here, but they cost 100 yuan per hour, which is unnecessary. It's better to take the sightseeing bus for 50 yuan. It takes you around the island, and it's only 50, with no time limit. You can also get off at one attraction and then ask the staff to call a car to take you to the next attraction. I take back what I said about staying for a few days. You can stay here for a maximum of one day, or not at all. There's not much to do, only 3-4 attractions. From 10 am to 2 pm, I just looked at the scenery and enjoyed the sea breeze. To be honest, the scenery is really beautiful, but I really don't recommend staying overnight.

Fangji Island is located in Maoming City. In the early years, fishermen would release a chicken on the island to pray for a safe return, hence the name. You need to take a boat from the pier to the island, which takes 30–40 minutes. The water here is noticeably clearer, and the woods are denser, so it won't be too sunny. You can choose a tour bus or rent an electric bike to get around the island. We recommend electric bikes, as they are convenient and free, and some places are not accessible by tour bus. You can buy tickets directly at the pier. Adult tickets are CNY 180, and child tickets are CNY 100 (infants held in arms are also counted). 🌟 Transportation: The ticket includes round-trip ferry and island admission. The ferry is a small passenger ship, not a speedboat. It's more comfortable, but not as exciting, haha. It takes about half an hour to reach the island. 🌟 Accommodation: We didn't stay on the island, but we found many wooden villas on the island, halfway up the mountain, with an unbeatable sea view. It must be very beautiful, which is a bit of a pity 😷😷 If you want to come, be sure to arrange your time and stay on the island for one night. A friend told me that if you come on weekdays, CNY 600 can include round-trip ferry tickets, island admission, and villa accommodation, which is a great deal! 💪💪 🌟 Food: Food... is not recommended. You know, scarcity increases value, and monopolies are like this, ridiculously expensive. You might as well bring some dry food to make do. 🐶🐶 🌟 Fun: Mainly for the scenery!! ☀☀ It's really beautiful. The day we went, the sun was shining, and it was beautiful no matter how you looked at it, haha 😄 We highly recommend renting an electric bike to ride around the island, leisurely and free. Ride and play wherever you want, stop to take pictures when you see beautiful scenery, and enjoy yourself~ 👻👻 Suitable for weekends that are not holidays ✌✌

🎫Ticket + round trip ferry ticket 180/adult 🛞Sightseeing bus 50/person (takes you to visit four scenic spots, you can get off and get on the bus halfway, or you can stay at home) After visiting the last scenic spot, you need to walk back to the gate by yourself (although it is not far, but I clearly paid 💰... 🛵Electric car 100/hour It is recommended to buy tickets online, it will be cheaper. We are the ones who buy tickets offline. 😅 There are two types of boats that bring people to the island: 1️⃣Speedboat🚤You can reach your destination in less than 20 minutes 2️⃣Ferry 🚢 takes 3-40 minutes When waiting in line for a boat, you usually take whatever boat is available. You can't choose The sea water is really clear, the blue sky and white clouds are also beautiful, the scenery is still good, but the buildings inside are a bit old, and they don’t look amazing. There are some sea activities on the island: diving🤿, sea scooters, sea flying fish, etc., which require additional fees. I don’t know if it’s fun without playing🤷🏽 The food is what I want to complain about the most, it’s expensive, the portions are small, and not tasty (I think my mom’s cooking is better), but probably only that restaurant has quite a lot of people going there 😮‍💨 Finally, I went back to the seaside restaurant near my home and had a full meal. Only then did I have a real seafood meal. To sum up, the scenery is not bad, and the photos are indeed good, but there are other better islands to choose from nearby. If you want to visit, you can go there specially‼ ️

🎍In Maoming Dianbai District There is a beautiful and mysterious diving tourist destination Here, you can find the grandeur of mountains and the magnificence of the sea, and it is also known as the 'Hawaii of China' It is the largest island in Maoming, Fangji Island, now also known as Dream Diving Island? 🎍A remote island away from the crowd, the bluer and clearer the water, Fangji Island has one of the highest water visibility in Asia, with surrounding sea visibility reaching 8 meters. It is recognized as the best diving base in Guangdong. It takes about thirty minutes by boat to reach the island, and the waves are quite big. The island is not large, 🎍but it is better to choose a tour bus. Walking can be quite tiring when the weather is good, but now the sun is scorching. Overall, the experience is quite good. There is still a lot of space for development projects on the island. Any random photo taken looks like it has a filter. It's a great spot for taking photos. If you want a short trip, you can come and experience it.

Guangzhou Suburb Tour | Travel Guide for Fangji Island in Maoming Decided to go there during the National Day holiday on a whim, it was too late to buy tickets online, so I bought them at the pier, with adult tickets at 180 RMB and children's tickets at 100 RMB (even small infants being held need a ticket). Transportation: The ticket includes round-trip boat fare and the island entry fee. The boat is a small passenger boat, not a speedboat, which is quite comfortable but not thrilling haha, it feels like it only takes about half an hour to reach the island. Accommodation: Didn't stay on the island, but upon arrival, I found many wooden villas on the hillside with unbeatable sea views, definitely very beautiful, a bit regretful. Friends who want to come should definitely arrange their time well and stay on the island for a night. I heard from a friend that normally, 600 RMB can cover the round-trip boat fare, island entry fee, and accommodation in a small villa, which is super cost-effective! Food: Food... well... I don't recommend it, you know, scarcity makes things precious, monopolized industries are all like this, ridiculously expensive. It's better to bring some dry food to make do. Fun: The main thing is to enjoy the scenery!! *It's really beautiful, the day we went there was very sunny, everything looked beautiful, haha, I highly recommend renting an electric bike to ride around the island at your leisure, carefree, stopping wherever you want to play, stopping to take pictures whenever you see a beautiful view, comfortable~ I want to come a second time, suitable for weekends outside of holidays.

Here is the guide to two days and one night of water play at the beach during the holidays. Don’t go to crowded beaches anymore. Here, you can find everything you want such as beaches, sunsets, delicious food, etc.~~🌴 2 days and 1 night tour itinerary Day1: First Beach—Yan Jingling—Tongzi Bay Day2: Fangji Island-Bapu Guinea Bay ‼ ️Recommended attractions 1️⃣The first beach in China It is very suitable for company travel. It has many people for team building and the transportation is convenient. There are many projects here such as swimming, sea sports, beach volleyball, barbecue, and sunbathing, waiting for you to play here. 2️⃣Tongziwan You can climb a hillside nearby to watch the sunset, but we didn’t climb it because we had to take pictures at the seaside. If you want to take far-away photos, you can climb a hill. There are many boats near the seaside, but the sunset is not in the middle of the sea, but on the edge of the sea. 3️⃣Yan Jingling The scenery is beautiful, with the white sandy beach and the deep blue sea forming a gorgeous landscape. Climbing the plank road to the top, you can have a panoramic view of the entire city, fishing boats and the sea. 4️⃣Bapu Guinea Bay It's called the Gulf of Bapu Guinea. Hearing this name, those who didn’t know it would have thought it was abroad! The sea water is crystal clear, and the water and sky are all blue. It's much prettier than China's First Beach, and there aren't that many tourists. There's no need to crowd around during holidays. The beach has only become popular in the past two years. The scenery is very good. The sea breeze is blowing and walking on the seaside is so pleasant. I really want to live by the sea for a long time. 5️⃣Jiahai Lighthouse There are many people camping and swimming. There are many parking spaces and dirt floors, as well as hand washing and bathing facilities. The wind is strong and the sun is strong. Remember to wear sunscreen. 6️⃣Chicken Island If it’s a sunny day here☀️, the clear blue sky and the sea will make you feel relaxed and happy. Come here to take pictures📷I posted it on Moments and thought I went to the Maldives. 🍲Gourmet recommendations Shing Kee Claypot Noodles, Sweet Potato Pancakes, Green Jelly Noodles, Tam Kee Salted Dumplings, Wheel Cake, Fish Balls and Beef Offal Pancakes 😉 Travel essentials Sunscreen, sun protective clothing, sunglasses, hat, slippers, power bank

An underrated domestic island! The whole city is quite niche, and the Fangji Island tourist area, which requires a boat ride, is even more so. There are very few guides about Fangji Island, and the pictures look so-so. I didn't have high expectations, but the result! Few people and beautiful scenery! Of course, a sunny day also adds a lot of points! 🌊 Fangji Island, originally named Wanzhou Island, also known as Qianmeng Island, is an island 14.5 kilometers away from Dianbai District of Maoming, Guangdong, which requires a boat ride. ⭐ In addition to the island tour, there are also some water activities to choose from, such as diving, sea fishing, swimming, etc., but this time I only saw sea fishing, and other activities are probably only available in summer. 🏖️ Travel Tips 🔹 Boarding the island: Only a round-trip boat ticket is needed, 164 RMB per person (available both on-site and online, it's more cost-effective to book online at least one hour in advance), the earliest boat to the island departs at 10 am, and the latest boat leaves the island at 5 pm. 🔹 Island transportation: There is a shuttle sightseeing car, 50 RMB per person, and you can also rent a small electric car, but I didn't take any, walking around 8 kilometers, it's very comfortable to walk and take pictures. I took the 10 am boat to the island and left at 4 pm, walking the whole way, and there was enough time. 🔹 Dining: There are basically no places to eat on the island, just some small shops, and the commercial traces are not heavy, it is recommended to bring your own dry food. 🔹 Accommodation: There is also accommodation on the island, I observed that it's quite deserted and the environment is average, it's completely possible to stay in Dianbai District of Maoming and take a day trip to the island. 📸 Photo Check-in Spots (according to the counterclockwise walking order) 1️⃣ Yanyu Coffee Square & Xingyue Building, which is the area with the glass house and stairs, looks especially good when the weather is nice! 2⃣️ Blue Coast, with large columns imitating Athens, and various cute marine life sculptures. 3⃣️ Lighthouse, on the mountain, if you want to go, you need to climb for a while, the location of the lighthouse is quite narrow, not easy to take pictures, need drone photography. 4⃣️ Tianhou Palace, located higher up, the view of the sea is also excellent. 5⃣️ On the road near the pier, you can take pictures of the lighthouse and the long embankment.
