October and November are truly perfect for sea views in Zhoushan! Fewer people in the off-season, beautiful scenery, and super fresh seafood to enjoy. Save this 2-day 1-night Zhujiajian guide~
Day 1:
📍Nansha Scenic Area: Super long coastline + fine sandy beach, recommended to visit after 3 PM when the light is soft and perfect for photos! Remember to bring slippers (Address: Nansha Road, Zhujiajian Street)
📍Island Ring Road: A must-check-in for self-driving! Along the way, the blue sea and sky paired with white windmills make for stunning shots📸
