Arrive at Songlan Mountain in Xiangshan around 11:00 AM and begin your day's hike along the ridgeline, coastline, and plank trails, with lunch available along the way. Songlan Mountain boasts numerous capes and bays, with stretches of sandy beaches. The trail passes by Baisha Bay Beach, Central Beach, and East Beach, creating a vibrant blend of mountain, sea, island, cliff, beach, and bay. The trail runs along the coastline of Songlan Mountain, from East Beach in the south to Baisha Bay in the north. It follows a plank path along the coastal reefs and beaches, with coastal viewing platforms and observation decks along the way. This is the largest land-based beach in East China. You can collect shells and search for crabs along the way, but please be careful!

Note: If you do not join the hike, you can follow the bus to the parking lot and walk about 100 meters to the East Beach (the largest beach on the entire route) to play on your own.
