Hidden Gem in Quanzhou 🏝️ Huian Windmill Island

📍Address: Windmill Island, Xiaozhi Town, Huian County, Quanzhou City

Tickets🎫: Free🆓, but there is a parking fee💰 for the parking lot🅿️ at the top of the mountain!

Things to do✨:
1️⃣ Windmill Island Tourist Area
The island is not big. You officially enter the island after passing the parking🅿️ toll booth. You will pass through a village and a winding coastal road🛣️ next to reefs and the sea.🌊 It's especially beautiful.🤩
You can climb up the hillside to see the windmills and the sea. The view is wide, and you can see the scenery of the entire Huian Bay.
Along the reefs down to the sea, there are many small crabs🦀️, hermit crabs🦀️, shrimps🦐, and fish🐟 hidden in the crevices of the rocks.
2️⃣ The beach🏝️ you pass on the way to Windmill Island
Near the road to Windmill Island, there are usually many yachts and cars. As soon as I got out of the car, I saw someone carrying a bucket of clear clams🐚, and local fishermen picking and digging.
There will be more people here. Parking🅿️ is free. There is a small shop at the entrance. Any purchase allows you to use the water to wash the sand for free.♻️
It's really beautiful to take pictures of the sunset here.🌇

Important⚠️tips:
👊 Be sure to wear sunscreen🧴 at the beach.🏖️
👊 Don't miss the last bus🚌 if you are taking public transportation.
👊 You can bring your own food🥘 and water.💦
