Escape the Heat at Huaniao Island Near Shanghai! A Romantic Paradise!


🌊OMG! Huaniao Island is the perfect summer getaway! I regret not taking more days off~ Folks from Shanghai or Hangzhou, if you want to escape the city this summer, this is the place to be!
💎Unlike other islands, the fishing village here is full of charm, and the bioluminescent sea at night turns into a fairy tale world! Watching the ocean under the Huaniao Lighthouse, I filled my phone’s memory with photos! After posting on social media, so many friends asked for the location~

👣Just 5 minutes to Nan’ao Beach, and super close to Bei’ao Beach for the bioluminescent sea—so convenient for summer fun!
💤Double-glazed balcony with great soundproofing! Seafood for just $8.5 per person, plus a free souvenir!

💡My must-do list for Huaniao Island!

1. The island is small—explore it all in flip-flops (except the lighthouse)!

3. Few official attractions, but every corner is picture-perfect!
4. Chase the bioluminescent sea (our local homestay host took us, and we got lucky spotting it that night—magical❤️)!

📸Visit the viral spots—Huaniao Lighthouse and Foshou Rock—pose by the sea for dreamy vibes!
