📩 Essential tips for moms! Weizhou Island family travel Tips～
🌟 Weather on Weizhou Island is crucial! When the weather is good, the sea is beautiful and the fun is guaranteed; bad weather really affects the experience, so be sure to check the forecast before you go～
🌟 Shiluokou Beach has a lot of gravel, and Colorful Beach’s surface is slippery, so be sure to bring non-slip shoes or sandals for both kids and yourself to avoid discomfort or slipping～
