Reef beaches, windmill bays, woods in the water, wild egrets...
It is an undeveloped, pure little island with few people and beautiful views.
The island is named "Salt Island Island" because it is rich in sea salt.
The island is lush with woods and flocks of white herons, retaining the original fishing village style.
💰Tickets: Free
🚗 Transportation: Self-driving is recommended, you can drive to the island
⛺ [Local must-see]:
1⃣️ Beach watch the sea catch the sea
Salt Island is a small island in the heart of Huizhou near Shuangyue Bay, with a 60km coastline, you can go to Hei Pai Kok, Caishi Beach, Yangwu Beach, etc. to play in the water 🌊, rush the sea 🦀️, camping 🏕️, and can catch small crabs.
2⃣️ Watch white herons in mangroves
The island's Baisha Village has large mangrove wetlands where thousands of wild egrets perch all year round, flying in groups or playing on the water.
At sunset, "the sunset and the lonely bird fly together, the autumn water and the sky are the same color" is even more spectacular, no wonder it becomes a paradise for photography lovers📷.
3⃣️ Go fishing
Here you can take a small fishing boat and follow the fishermen out to sea fishing🐟, catch fresh seafood and take it back to add to the food.
The pier out to sea will also appear trailing beach after low tide, just like walking in the middle of the sea is fantastic!
4⃣️ Windmill Mountain Hiking
There is also a Guanyin Mountain on the island, also called Windmill Mountain. You can hike to the top of the mountain, see the big windmills all over the mountain, and overlook the sea island.
🍱Special food
- Seafood feast: Since we came to the sea, we must try the local seafood. The seafood on Salt Island Island is super fresh and affordable.
- Handmade rice cake: This is a specialty snack of Salt Island Island, made with glutinous rice flour and sesame, crispy, sweet and delicious. We bought it in a small shop in Baisha Village. The owner said it was handmade
- Vegetable tea: the first time to eat vegetable tea, feeling opened the door to a new world! It is made with pork bone soup as a base, adding various vegetables, fried rice, peanuts, etc.

▪️Thousands of egrets roost and play in front of the window, the first time such a close and long bird watching, this experience is too great!
