🏝 One of the most perfectly preserved natural ecological islands in China, Sanmen Island combines snorkeling, paddle surfing, and beautiful scenery, fulfilling all your beach dreams.
📍Address: Sanmen Island, Daya Bay District, Huizhou City, Guangdong Province
🚗Driving: 3 hours from Guangzhou, 1 hour from Shenzhen, with a speedboat transfer required to reach the island.
🚌Public Transport: From Shenzhen to Dapeng, then take a bus to the beach or pier.
🚢To the Island: A 15-minute speedboat ride is needed from Shenzhen Dongchong Pier. Tickets for a boat that can carry six people are available at the ticket office. Forming a group can save money on the speedboat, which is thrilling, and you can enjoy the cloud scenery of Qiniang Mountain in the middle of the sea.
🏠Accommodation: Camping on the beach is possible (not recommended in hot weather) and the accommodation is basic. Those with high accommodation standards are discouraged. Guesthouses have four/six-person rooms, and exclusive hotels are overpriced. Electricity is available from 6 pm to 6 am.
🦞Dining: There are several farmhouses run by locals with slightly high prices, but the seafood is very fresh as it is caught at sea. In the evening, you can have a barbecue next to the farmhouse, which is not allowed on the beach.
