Photo Spots

2. Xia Chuan Coconut Groves: Full of rich Southeast Asian charm.

6. Colorful Fishing Boats: The blue and maroon fishing boats of Xia Chuan Island are a special feature. Use the fishing boats as a backdrop to photograph people boarding the fishing boats or working and resting by the boats.

Shooting Tips

• Make good use of light: Morning and evening are golden hours, the light is soft, and you can take warm-toned romantic photos; on sunny days, use tree shadows to create light and shadow contrast to take pictures with distinct light and dark.

• Low-angle shooting: Shoot upwards close to the ground to highlight the tall shapes of coconut trees, reefs, etc., and increase the visual impact of the picture.

• Capture dynamic moments: In scenes such as beaches and seas, capture the moments when people run, play in the water, and chase the waves to show vitality.

• Clever use of props: Prepare straw hats, colorful balloons, bubble machines, surfboards, etc. to add interest and atmosphere to the picture.

Outfit Suggestions

• Fresh vacation style: Girls choose floral dresses, white wide-leg pants with colorful suspenders; boys wear linen shorts and colorful short-sleeved shirts.

• Energetic sports style: Suitable for water sports, quick-drying shorts, vests, with sun hats and sports sunglasses.

Other reminders

• Check the weather in advance. Sunny days have high color saturation and produce better photos. After rain, there may be a fresh atmosphere.

• Bring photography equipment. Drones can take panoramic views of the island, and camera telephoto lenses can capture details of the distant sea.

• Take sun protection and mosquito prevention measures to ensure a comfortable shooting process.
