- Noon: Go to a nearby fisherman's restaurant to try something new! Mackerel dumplings🥟 are tender and juicy, and don’t miss the seaweed buns, full of the taste of the sea.
- Afternoon: Head to Jiuzhang Cliff🌄. The cliffs are spectacular! Walk along the wooden boardwalk and find some hidden photo spots to instantly get “cliff masterpieces.”
- Evening: Visit the seafood market, buy some fresh small seafood🦐, have the homestay cook it for you, and enjoy seafood while feeling the sea breeze—pure bliss~

Day 2: Chase the sunrise + island roaming

- Early morning: Go to Fengshan to watch the sunrise🌅. Climb up the viewing platform and wait for the first ray of sunlight to shine on the sea—so beautiful it makes you want to cry!
- Morning: Check in at Wonderland Source🍃. The seaside boardwalk and rock formations are perfect for couples strolling or families with kids. Every snap is a fresh island vibe.
- Noon: Rest a bit at your accommodation and enjoy a Changdao specialty fisherman's meal set, featuring sea fish and shrimp paste pancakes.
- Afternoon: If you have time, try a sea tour🚢 to Wan Bird Island to see seagulls! Flocks of seagulls chase the boat, and feeding them is super atmospheric~

🏠 Accommodation recommendations

- Want to experience fisherman's life: Choose a fisherman's homestay🏡 on South Changshan Island or North Changshan Island that includes three meals! You can chat with the owner about island stories and enjoy plenty of seafood. Costs about 100 - 150 per night per person.
- Seeking a cozy and quiet vibe: Find a seaside inn🛏️ on the island. Open the window to the sea, fall asleep listening to the waves at night, full of romance. Prices range from 200 - 300 per night.

🌟 Handy tips

- Transportation on Changdao relies on taxis or renting vehicles🚗. Taxis are convenient on the island, and you can rent electric scooters to circle the island, enjoying the sea breeze (but remember sun protection!)
- Make sure to protect yourself from the sun! The island’s UV rays are strong, so bring hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen🧴. Don’t come back darker and crying~
- During peak season (summer vacation, etc.), it’s recommended to book accommodation and ferry tickets🎫 in advance, or you might have no place to stay and waste time!

Yantai Changdao is truly a hidden treasure island in Shandong🌊. Few people, beautiful scenery, and affordable! Whether it’s a couple’s trip, family outing, or looking for a less crowded spot to watch the most beautiful sunset🌄, it’s perfect~
