#No. 1 Bathing Beach Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
I visited Qingdao four times in a year for these 18 places
Xiaoyushan: Red tiles and green trees, city view + sea view all in one, it only takes a minute or two to walk to the top, the classic position overlooks the first sea bathing place.
Signal Hill: One of the sunset viewing spots, there is also a popular 'cliff' photo spot, positioning the north gate is more labor-saving, if time allows, there is no need to choose between it and Xiaoyushan, go to both.
Second Sea Bathing Place: The end of May is the most beautiful time for the second bath (self-proclaimed), no green algae, the sea is clear and turbulent, you can take the same kind of dam end as the ghost. It's very wide, and you can also take cliff effect on the rocks.
Xiaomaidao: It is recommended to go to the island before 10 o'clock in the morning on a sunny day, the sparkling diamond sea, there are many popular photo spots that are very photogenic, and it is also one of the best sunset viewing spots.
First Sea Bathing Place: The volleyball old man by the sea is too healing! The most lively sea bathing place, it's very happy to watch the locals swim and play ball.
Lu Xun Park: It's really underestimated, sandwiched between the first bath and Qinyu Road, it's a holy place to cross the road and blow the sea breeze.
Qinyu Road: Morning, rainy day, sunset each has its own flavor, don't take this as a scenic spot, it's just a road. Nearby is my favorite Wilde, in front of Wilde's door is the lonely tree. You can go up the reef to take pictures.
Xiaoqingdao: The heart of Lu Xun in the first bath (the end of Qinyu Road is Xiaoqingdao Park. There is a long straight road at the entrance, you can turn up to the high platform, the pavilion and the 'coconut tree' inside are old popular photo spots, you can also watch the sunset.
Xiling Gorge Road: A moody intersection that can also produce pictures on cloudy days! There is also a bus to the sea next door, the lens has language, the expressiveness here is very good.
Zhanqiao: Just stroll over from Xiling Gorge Road, there are seagulls from Siberia in winter, it's worth a look. (A lot of people)
Fushan Forest Park: A relatively niche urban park, positioned at the west gate, it is more convenient to go up the trestle. The mountain and the sea depend on each other, and there is also the blessing of the city view, a sunset viewing spot, and it is also the 'City of Love' at night.
Catholic Church: In addition to faith, those who like to take pictures can look through the residential buildings I went to before, otherwise it's optional.
Olympic Sailing Center: Together with Lovers Dam, like the Haiyuan Park in Weihai, I have no feeling for the square sea, there is a delicious steam seafood nearby.
Yan'er Island Park: The two times I went were cloudy and road repairs, I really can't recommend it, Xiaomaidao is more worth it.
Jinmao Bay: It is also a classic sunset viewing spot, but it is not popular, if you want to go to the mall to eat or stay nearby, it is very wide view.
Surfing In Qingdao
We specifically went to Qingdao to try our hand at surfing and let me tell you it was fantastic! We went through a company called North Surf on 1st Bathing Beach in Shinan district, Qingdao and had an excellent coach named Mi. He was chill and brought such a good vibe to our first surfing lesson. By the end of the lesson we were standing on the board and ready for bigger waves. I enjoyed this experience so much I’ll be going back before the end of the summer🤟🏽🤟🏽

At the First Bathing Beach in Qingdao, I found a lonely tree
Old Qingdao has eight major bathing beaches, and the First Bathing Beach is the earliest one.
This world-famous bathing beach located by Huiquan Bay was once a summer resort for locals and tourists from home and abroad.
The First Bathing Beach is relatively large in size and well-located, close to Xiaoyushan. You can also see the pavilion in Xiaoyushan Park on the hill from the beach.
Between the mountain and the sea, there is a wonderful feeling.
Every summer, the beach is crowded with people, like dumplings. If you like lively places, this is a good choice, but the sand here is a bit rough compared to the Second Bathing Beach.
As the weather cools down, the beach becomes less crowded.
On the beach, I found a lonely tree.
The tree stretches out from the beach, providing a patch of green shade.
It's suitable for taking photos with a sense of loneliness.
Find a place on the beach, sit down, and listen to the sound of the waves, which has a healing power.

Surrounded by mountains on three sides, green trees, next to is the Little Fish Mountain Park🏝️
The beach is soft, 🩴 walking on it, blowing the sea breeze, how comfortable!
.
📍Fourth stop: Badaguan Scenic Area✨
The 🏙️ roads of Badaguan, several horizontal and vertical, intersect together, each road🕋 has its own scenery, the coming autumn, walking among them, can even remind people of the autumn🍂 in Yu Dafu's pen
Recommended!
🎇Shanhaiguan Road, French Sycamore Road leads to the seaside;
Shaoguan Road, old villas with unique charm are scattered among them;
Juyongguan Road, golden ginkgo leaves flying all over the sky in autumn;
Linhaiguan Road, if the above is unique autumn scenery, here is evergreen all year round;
.
📍Fifth stop: The third seawater bathing beach🥽
The unique atmosphere of the rocky beach, I took one photo after another, the night fell, the lights were beginning to come on, the beach and the modern buildings🌃 behind appeared in the same photo, Little Manhattan appeared in front of my eyes

🌟Tips:
1️⃣Badaguan is more suitable for going in the morning, especially on weekday mornings, people gradually increase after the morning
2️⃣Badaguan ticket area: Princess Building, Spanish Style Pavilion, Butterfly Building, each 20, pass 50. Huashi Building buys tickets separately
3️⃣If you want some exotic cuisine, I recommend Silver Fish Alley, there are many Korean restaurants~
4️⃣If you have enough time, you can spend half a day going to Fish Singing Mouth in Huangdao, the taxi is a bit expensive but it's really better than the city bathing beach! You can rest and have afternoon tea next to it;
5️⃣You can go to May Fourth Square to see the light show at night, if you don't like the light show, it's also very comfortable to take a walk nearby;
6️⃣If you go to every street in the Badaguan Scenic Area, it will be more tiring, you can go to all, or you can choose a few favorite roads to stroll around, Linhaiguan Road is also worth visiting!
