Date: 20231211-20231212 Where is the boundary between the Pearl River and the South China Sea? It could be Lingdingyang, or the Wanshan Archipelago, or more specifically - the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge? On a moving ship, if you can see this huge bridge on both sides, then, it is also under your feet. Guishan Island is known as the gateway to Wanshan, administratively belonging to Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, and we stayed in Guishan Town, Guishan Village. The homestay is on a high place, and the foot of the mountain next to it is Wen Tianxiang Square, I like the look of this national hero with deep hatred. Then walk south along the coastal road, passing through the busiest places on this small island one by one, including the market, the dock, the customs... At dusk, golden light covers the mountains, windmills, and ships on the sea. The sun went down, and we just walked to No. 1 dike, between two lighthouses, one high and one low. In addition to Guishan Village, Guishan Town also has a Guihai Village, which locals call Fisherman's Village and Hakka Village respectively. The triangular land where the two villages meet is the CBD of this town, with several restaurants and shops. On the way to Guishan Ship Memorial Park the next morning, I inadvertently looked back and saw the homestay last night. I saw the green top of the stone in the morning, and I remembered watching the stars at night. This island was originally called Garbage Tail Island. In memory of the soldiers who sacrificed here in the early days of liberation, it was renamed to its current name. The lighthouse on No. 2 dike is red, corresponding to the green of No. 1 dike, guarding the entrance and exit of the island. If there was such a good harbor back then, would the Guishan ship still be sunk? Fortunately, we live in a peaceful era and can eat seafood for two consecutive meals. The seawater here is not the clearest, and the content on the sea surface is complicated: there are many ships coming and going, and there are all kinds of tonnages; you can see Hong Kong, Macau, and Zhuhai; and there is a large row of wind power generator sets. But I think we will come again, to eat delicious and cheap seafood; to see the most complete sunset, the liveliest sea!

#Greater Bay Area must-visit check-in spots In 2023, I visited Guishan Island in Zhuhai, an island rich in history and culture, full of ancient buildings and natural scenery.

This trip is not only an exploration of history and culture, but also a taste of ancient island life. The ancient buildings and rich cultural atmosphere of Guishan Island are unforgettable to me.

A mountain kid from Guizhou, I really get seasick when I'm on a boat. I wanted to be a happy islander for a day, but in the end, I became a seasick islander. It starts with seasickness and ends with seasickness. ☀️Itinerary: Depart from Xiangzhou Wharf in Zhuhai and return to Zhuhai on the same day. Depart to Xiangzhou Wharf in the morning, 🉑️follow the Xiangzhou Port public account to get the departure time. 🎫The ticket price is about 1⃣️0⃣️0⃣️ yuan, and the journey takes about 50 minutes. If you get seasick like me, you can put on a seasickness patch half an hour in advance, and there are also vomit bags on the boat. Guishan Island is not big, you can choose to take a sightseeing car or ride a bicycle to play, because my friend and I are lazy, so we chose the sightseeing car. There are sightseeing cars and bicycles at the port after getting off the boat. 🧸Tour route: ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 🗼Lighthouse: Located near the pier, you can see it as soon as you get off the boat, and there is a coffee shop next to it. You can have a cup of coffee there after a round and enjoy the sunset. 🏖Dolphin Bay Beach: I had high expectations for the beach before I went, thinking about the sun, beach, drinking coconut water, and all kinds of enjoyment, but the actual experience was: the beach was under maintenance, so I just took a rough look. 🏡Little Fish Village: There is a popular zebra crossing here for photo taking. 🕴Guishan Ship Memorial Park: This is the most beautiful place in the whole journey, don't forget to enjoy it. The seaside plank road is very photogenic. 🏠Accommodation: There are places to stay on the island, but my friend and I chose to return to Zhuhai. In the evening, take a boat back to Zhuhai City. If time permits, I suggest waiting a bit, admiring the beautiful sunset, and then returning. When we left at about five and a half, we encountered the sunset. Unfortunately, we could only enjoy it through the ship's window, but it was still unforgettable. So, if you go to Guishan Island, you might as well wait for the sunset before leaving. Guishan Island may be small, but it also has its unique scenery and experience.

Guishan Island, located in the Wanshan Archipelago of the Lingdingyang, Pearl River Estuary, is the heart of Guishan Town, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province. Once known as "Garbage Tail Island," it was renamed in honor of the heroic deeds of the martyrs of the "Guishan" during the 1954 Battle of the Liberation of the Wanshan Islands. Today, it serves as both a red education base and a coastal pearl in Guangdong's "100 Counties, 1,000 Towns, 10,000 Villages" project. The island blends fishing village charm, historical culture, and ecological beauty—colorful fishing boats, towering lighthouses, winding coastal roads, and the Wanshan fishing grounds, one of the six largest in China, making it a paradise for aerial photography enthusiasts. 🌟Capturing the Soul of Guishan Island with Aerial Photography 1⃣ Tanka Life: The Buzz of a Floating City at Sea The mornings on Guishan Island belong to the fishermen. As dawn breaks, the pier is already bustling with activity: the roar of fishing boat engines, the rustling of fishing nets being cast, and the hawking of seafood create a unique "maritime symphony." ✅Aerial Photography Recommendations: Bird's-eye view of the fishing port: From high above, fishing boats resemble scattered colorful building blocks, swaying gently with the waves. Fishing nets spread out on the decks like spiderwebs, and the figures of fishermen bending over to sort their catch add dynamic touches to the scene. Close-up on the details of life: Lower the drone's altitude to capture the rough hands of fishermen mending nets, the silvery scales of fish drying on bamboo trays, or the wisps of smoke curling up from a Tanka woman cooking on the bow of a boat. 2⃣ Lighthouse Guardians: "Guides" and "Storytellers" of the Sea Guishan Island boasts two iconic lighthouses—"Guishan Lighthouse" and "Lighthouse No. 1." The former, a white cylindrical structure built in 1953, illuminates the waterway like a pearl at night. The latter, with its red and blue color scheme, has become a popular check-in spot, especially at sunset when the glow of the setting sun gilds the tower, creating a scene reminiscent of a Miyazaki animation. ✅Aerial Photography Tips: Golden hour at dusk: As the sun sets, hover the drone beside the lighthouse and shoot a silhouette against the light. The waves below shatter into golden flakes, and distant returning boats slowly enter the frame, adding a touch of narrative. 3⃣ Ships Setting Sail: Wind Farms and the "Ocean Highway" Guangdong's first offshore wind farm stands in the waters west of Guishan Island. The 90-meter-high white wind turbines resemble the arms of giants, contrasting sharply with the cargo ships and fishing boats that navigate among them. ✅Aerial Photography Highlights: Wind turbine matrix: From a high altitude, shoot vertically downwards. The wind turbines form a geometric pattern, with ships trailing long wakes as they pass through, like Lego toys moving on a chessboard. 4⃣ Other Must-Shoot Scenes ✅Guishan Warship Memorial Park: The coastal boardwalk winds along the cliffs. Fly the drone along the cliff face to capture the dynamic waves crashing against the rocks, with the cliff inscription "Guishan Warship Landing Point" in the background, a collision of history and natural forces. ✅Wen Tianxiang Square: The 5.5-meter-high statue of Wen Tianxiang faces the sea. Use the statue as the foreground in your aerial shot, incorporating the scattered fish rafts in the background. Wait for a speedboat to cross the water, leaving a white, ribbon-like trail. ✨Practical Guide 🚇Transportation: Take a 1-hour direct ferry from Zhuhai Xiangzhou Port (multiple departures daily), or depart from Guangzhou Nansha Passenger Port, a 90-minute journey via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge. 💒Accommodation: We recommend the "Yuehai Pavilion Homestay" with its panoramic sea-facing glass windows, or the "Shanhaijian Hotel," a 3-minute walk from the pier, ideal for capturing the sunrise. ❗️Important Notes: The island is windy, so ensure your drone has a wind resistance rating of at least level 5. Avoid flying over military control zones. Respect the privacy of fishermen; offer a smile before filming. The fishermen's life on Guishan Island is not a performative "cultural display," but a real, day-to-day struggle with the sea. Through aerial photography, you'll understand why the Tanka people call their boats "Tanka homes"—their homes are in the waves, in the halo of the lighthouse, and in every net full of bounty. Maintain a respectful distance when filming Tanka life, and avoid pointing the camera directly at people's faces. Next time you visit, bring a pack of cigarettes to share with the old fishermen at the pier, and in return, you'll hear island tales far more vivid than any official guide. Tip: Want to capture the spectacle of a large-scale fishing fleet setting sail? On the first day after the end of the fishing moratorium each August, nearly a hundred fishing boats set off together, a scene comparable to a maritime marathon!
