There are many reefs where you can catch a lot of hermit crabs, small crabs, small fish, etc. The kids are super happy, meeting their needs. 👉 Accommodation: After arriving at the fishing village, there are many small inns outside the beach, with prices around 100+ for a standard room. You can walk around outside the beach to check out the rooms or book in advance. After checking in, you can take the kids to the beach with small buckets and tongs (provided by the inns or bring your own). The accommodation is about a 5-minute walk from the beach. 🚗 Driving into the beach 🅿️ parking is 20 per car. ⚠️ This place is suitable for catching small fish, small crabs, hermit crabs, etc. Essential items include beach shoes, slippers, as there are many reefs and walking barefoot can cause injuries. 👉 Dinner: There are seafood processing markets and many affordable restaurants near the inns.

Departing from Shenyang to Bayuquan by self-driving, the whole journey is on the highway, about two and a half hours, and the highway fee is 107 RMB. Preparations needed: A small rake is very practical, a shovel is not recommended to buy the one in the picture, it bends when you apply force, personally I think the small rake is more practical. Gloves can be ordinary rubber ones, which protect your hands while foraging in the sea. Rain boots are recommended for children, while adults can wear fitting slippers. For taking beautiful photos, you can bring two or three sets of clothes, one for photography and one for sea foraging, and another set to change into if you get wet. Make sure to protect yourself from the sun when foraging, or you'll get tan lines wherever you miss. The sea breeze can be a bit chilly in the morning and evening, so it's recommended to bring a jacket as a backup. Xianrendao does not charge for sea foraging, but there is a 3 RMB fee for washing feet when coming out, 1 RMB for using the toilet, and a 10 RMB parking fee at the entrance. Parking on the roadside is free.
