Silu Islands

The first day of 2024 was spent in 'Saidar of the Mortal Realm'. The winter in Siqian Archipelago is golden. Paired with cliffs, strong winds, and tides, it evokes a feeling of solemnity and grandeur. We set off from the port at 9:50 and arrived around 12:00. All 15 of us were not spared from seasickness; we vomited until we cried, but all discomfort vanished the moment we set foot on the peak of the island. Crossing the turbulent waves today, the coming year is sure to be smooth sailing. 1️⃣ Siqian Archipelago, Xiapu County, Fujian Province 2️⃣ Take the high-speed train to Xiapu Station, then drive to Jishi Wharf to take a boat 3️⃣ 100 RMB per person (1h journey), speedboat 500 RMB per person The Siqian Archipelago consists of 4 islands, with Dongqian Island being the most recommended. The entire island is like a giant dragon coiling above the sea; it is the 'Saidar of the Mortal Realm' from Fang Qi's videos, very photogenic. The island's broken arms and lawns complement each other, and Dongqian Island is also the best place to pitch a tent and watch the sunrise. 4️⃣ Precautions 1. The islands are wild, with no protective facilities and strong winds, so be sure to pay attention to safety when landing. 2. Remember to protect against sunburn and mosquitoes, there is no food on the island, so it's advisable to bring your own. 3. The weather is very important, be sure to choose a sunny day. 4. Be sure to take seasickness medicine 30 minutes before boarding the boat. I've never been seasick, carsick, or airsick since I was young, but this time I vomited as if I was undergoing a tribulation. Wishing everyone a happy new year 2024!

Fujian Xiapu Sijiao Archipelago: A Real-Life Version of Zelda, A Pristine Island Adventure. Stepping onto the Sijiao Archipelago in Fujian Xiapu is like entering the world of the Zelda game in real life.

There is no commercial development here, no bustling tourists, just the tranquility and beauty of nature. To get to the Sijiao Archipelago, you can choose to take a boat or a speedboat. Although the boat ride is longer, the scenery along the way is definitely worth the wait; the speedboat, on the other hand, is a more thrilling and faster way to travel, and the feeling of cutting through the waves is exhilarating. I chose to take a speedboat to the island, and in just 40 minutes, I arrived at this mysterious island. Hongjiao Island, also known as Bird Island, is a paradise for seagulls. The primitive climbing mode is very experiential, making one feel like they have returned to childhood. Dongjiao Island is the main island of the Sijiao Archipelago, with broken-arm cliffs and large lawns, each spot is an excellent location for photography. Nanjiao Island is covered with pebbles, and its healing scenery is captivating. Here, I would like to remind everyone of some precautions. First, if you are prone to seasickness, it is recommended not to eat too much before setting off, and you can also prepare some seasickness medicine. Second, dress lightly, with sports shoes and sunscreen being essential. Finally, remember to take your trash with you to protect the beautiful island environment. Sijiao Archipelago, a pristine island that makes you want to return again and again. If you are tired of the hustle and bustle of the city and want to find a peaceful place, then why not come here and experience a real-life Zelda adventure!

Due to its undeveloped nature, the island still retains its original scenery and ecological environment. 3️⃣❤️Si Shan Islands Recommended route: Beishan Island → Bird Island → Dongshan Island → Nanshan Island Composed of four small islands, the scenery is really beautiful. It has not been overdeveloped, so the sea water is particularly clear, and there are many black goats on the island. 4️⃣❤️Dongshan Island Recommended route: Nanmen Bay → Sufeng Mountain Ring Island Road → Fish Bone Shoal → Jinluan Bay → Maluan Bay The sea of Dongshan Island is really clear and beautiful, the sea water temperature is suitable, the pressure is moderate, it is a natural seaside bathing place, it is most appropriate to come here to play in the water in summer! You can also go to Fish Bone Shoal to experience the strange landscape of 'an island in the sea, a lake in the island'. 5️⃣❤️Xiapu Sishuang Islands Recommended route: Beishuang Island → Dongshuang Island → Nanshuang Island → Xishuang Island A lesser-known island in China, the scenery is really beautiful! The sea water is particularly clear, with a gradient of blue and green visible to the naked eye, and the white waves hitting the rocks, it really looks like the seaside abroad! It has not been fully developed here, so the ecological environment is particularly well protected! 🌟Tips for taking photos and sharing🌟 This time I only brought a sports camera to the seaside, because it's really lightweight and portable, and it's waterproof, so I can shoot anytime, anywhere~ If you come to the seaside, you can also consider bringing one! Then remember to check the weather forecast, choose a sunny day to travel, the seaside with sunshine is the most beautiful! Finally, remember to take sun protection measures~❤️

There are cliffs, seagulls, and the clear and transparent sea. Photography enthusiasts should not miss this. Location: Xiapu County, Fujian Province, Sijiao Archipelago Depending on the mode of transportation to the island, drive to Jishi Wharf or Dongbi Wharf 【Transportation】🚢🚤 Take a boat, ticket price 100 RMB per person (Jishi Wharf) Take a speedboat, ticket price 500 RMB per person (Dongbi Wharf) 1. The boat ride takes 1.5 hours; the speedboat only takes 40 minutes, 2. Taking the boat requires an overnight stay in a B&B on Beijiao Island (because there is only one boat back at 9:30 am every day), and the island's food and lodging conditions are limited; the speedboat is a round trip on the same day. 3. The speedboat is safer and offers an exhilarating experience of riding the waves. The captain will also make adjustments based on the weather conditions of the day. 【Hongjiao Island】 Hongjiao Island, also known as Bird Island, is aptly named as many seagulls stop here. Climb up in the original ecological mode, the experience is full, and don't worry if you're not good at hiking, as the crew from the speedboat will pull you up (not recommended for the elderly or very young children) 【Dongjiao Island】 This is the theme island of the Sijiao Archipelago! The normal speedboat landing time is 2 hours, which allows people to relax at will, and it's very photogenic, truly pristine and stunning! There are broken arm cliffs and large lawns! 【Nanjiao Island】 The island is covered with pebbles of various sizes, very healing, and there is also a punching point like a sea erosion cave! 「Precautions」⚠️ 1. If you get seasick, it's recommended not to eat too much before departure! You can also prepare some seasickness medicine! 2. Dress lightly, wear sports shoes, and make sure to apply sunscreen! 3. Bring your own dry food for the speedboat round trip! 4. Take your trash with you and protect the environment

Visiting the Si Sha Archipelago once will let you know where the ceiling of domestic island beauty lies. This dreamy little island, just like the world of Zelda, is embraced by the sea, and in turn, embraces the sea. It stands alone in the sea like a lonely, uninhabited secret realm. You definitely can't miss this stunningly beautiful island this summer🏝️ 📍Si Sha Archipelago, Xiapu, Fujian It takes over an hour by boat from Jishi Wharf, and the round-trip ticket🎫 is 170 RMB per person. You can also take a speedboat out to sea, which is faster at 500 RMB per person. I personally think that the most beautiful is Dong Sha Island, with vast grasslands and cliffs. Climbing to the highest point of the island to overlook the whole island is incredibly beautiful, really like a dreamy scene. Bird Island has many seabirds in June and July, offering a different landscape. Nan Sha Island has a particularly large number of pebble beaches where you can rest, take photos, stroll, and play in the water by the beach. Bei Sha Island is where the islanders live, with places to stay and eat. The accommodation conditions don't seem very good, so think carefully if you want to stay. I personally think that spending a whole day on the Si Sha Archipelago is quite appropriate. The whole journey is quite tiring, involving boat rides, climbing hills, etc. tips: 1. Be sure to apply sunscreen, as there are no shaded areas on the island and it can be quite sunny. 2. You can dress in a more vacation-style⛱️, wearing running shoes or hiking boots, as you'll need to walk and climb hills.
