🌅 Wanning Sunrise|Waiting for a boiling sea and light at the Ends of the Earth

✨ "Romantic alert at 5 AM!"
The sunrise in Wanning is not just a view, it’s a burning ceremony of the sky and ocean—
🌤️ Clouds splash into an orange-pink oil painting,
🌊 Wave crests break into golden light, coconut grove silhouettes sway…
At this moment, you will believe: the Earth is truly worth living on.



📌 【Must-visit spots to watch the sunrise in Wanning】
1️⃣ Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse
📍 Navigate to “Shenzhou Peninsula Tourist Area”
➡️ Red and white lighthouse + winding breakwater + unobstructed sea horizon, cinematic vibes maxed out!
(📸 Recommended to use a telephoto lens to capture silhouettes of people walking toward the lighthouse, atmosphere explosion!)

2️⃣ Shimei Bay
📍 Navigate to “Left side beach of Shimei Bay Le Méridien Hotel”
➡️ Few people, fine sand, clouds often show the “fiery cloud spectacle,” perfect for shooting time-lapse masterpieces!
☕ Nearby mobile coffee cart, holding a hot coffee while watching the sunrise is super chill~

3️⃣ Riyue Bay
➡️ Sunrise + surfer silhouettes = a legendary sense of freedom!
🏄 You can book early morning surfing lessons to greet the sun on the wave crest (coach booking required in advance!)

⏰ Time tips
✔️ Arrive 30 minutes early: capture the gradual change of dawn colors
✔️ Check sunrise time: weather apps on your phone provide very accurate real-time forecasts!
✔️ Rainy season alternative: Wanning has frequent showers in summer; if cloudy, shooting the “melancholy blue morning mist” is also stunning!

🚗 Transportation tips
✔️ Recommend renting a car or electric scooter, taxis are hard to get at dawn!
✔️ Wear slippers + bring a jacket (sea breeze is slightly cool)
✔️ After sunrise, head straight to “Xinglong Town” for authentic Nanyang breakfast tea (curry croissant + iced coffee ☕️)
