Nanao Island Tourist Attractions Where is the best place to stay on Nan'ao Island?

Nanao Island is located at the junction of Guangdong Province and Fujian Province. Everyone must have heard about this beautiful island. The landscape of Nan'ao Island is natural, and the environment is well protected because it is underdeveloped. South Australia mainly includes Treasure Island, Qing'ao Bay, Huanghuashan National Forest Park, Zongbing Mansion, Songjing, Dieshiyan Temple, etc.

2. Recommended Attractions

On the map of Nan'ao Island, you can clearly see the tourist attractions: Aoyun Songjing, Qing'ao Bay Tourist Resort, Xiongzhen Pass, and General Military Mansion , Maritime Fishing Village, Treasure Island, Pingshan Rock, Tiannan Faru, Wind Power Plant, Huanghuashan National Forest Park.

In addition to these, there are also some scenic spots that are not marked: Zheng Chenggong’s Recruiting Tree, Nanshan Temple, Tropic of Cancer Sign Tower Natural Gate, Shen’ao Back Garden, Nan’ao Qianse Garden, Changshanwei Fort, Zhannan Pavilion Etc.

In fact, there are many tourist attractions in Nan'ao Island, but you can arrange the tourist places reasonably according to the time. The following are the four attractions I recommend first:

a. Qing'ao Bay Tourist Resort (recommendation index:)

In this natural beach, you can swim here, Bask in the sun, watch the sunrise, etc. The beach facilities are also very complete, including sea watching, yachting, rowing, windsurfing, parasailing, water skiing, banana boats, sea motorcycles, motor boats, etc. Whether you are single, a couple or a family, this is a great place to visit.

b. Huanghuashan National Forest Park (recommendation index:)

In Huanghuashan National Forest, you can climb mountains in the morning. There is Dajianshan, the first peak in Shantou, with an altitude of 587 meters. At noon, you can eat farmhouse at the foot of the mountain or manage a sweet potato kiln.

c. Natural Gate of Tropic of Cancer Tower (Recommendation Index:)

As the only island county in the world where the Tropic of Cancer passes through, South Australia is located in the tropical and north temperate zones and is known as "Oasis on the Tropic of Cancer". It is the 11th Tropic of Cancer sign tower built in China so far and the second Tropic of Cancer sign tower in Shantou, so it is very meaningful to visit this Tropic of Cancer sign tower.

D. Wind power plant (recommended indicator:)

Walking on the road in Nan'ao, you can see neat rows of windmills on the distant peaks. These windmills come from wind farms. Nan'ao Wind Farm is a key demonstration area for developing wind energy resources in the world.

3. Recommended routes

It’s a recommended route, but in fact we didn’t follow these routes at all when we traveled because we couldn’t bear to go when we got to Qing’ao Bay, which led to a change in the itinerary. But it doesn't matter. You can go there again next time. If you go once, you still want to go a second time.

A: Three-day tour.

Day 1: Aoyun Matsui and Wind Farm;

2: In the morning you can go fishing to experience the life of fishermen on the island and have lunch on the boat. In the afternoon, you can go to Shenzhen'ao General Military Mansion, Zheng Chenggong's Recruitment Tree, Maritime Fishing Village, Treasure Island and Youth Olympic Games on the second day. Because these scenic spots are very close to each other, you can visit them together.

The third day: Huanghuashan National Forest Park, you can eat farmhouse or sweet potato kiln at the foot of the mountain at noon.

B: Two-day tour

The first day: Qing'ao Bay Wind Farm;

The second day: Take a boat to Aoyun Wuyu Nature Reserve , visit Songjing, Xiongzhenguan, General Military Mansion, Zheng Chenggong’s Recruiting Tree, and Treasure Island.

c: One-day tour

Tour content: Aoyun Songjing, Qing'ao Bay, Treasure Island, Shen'ao Hunting Island Fishing Village, and General Military Mansion.

d: One-day bus tour around the island.

You can take bus No. 161 in Shantou City to Nan'ao County, and then transfer to the Nan'ao Island Circle Bus at Nan'ao Island. You can go to Nan'ao Island for a day (this is more suitable for watching the sea)!

4. Transportation recommendations

Since South Australia is a small island, access is often related to the weather. When the Nan'ao Bridge was not yet open, people often had to take a ferry, which only departed once an hour. It was inconvenient when the service was suspended in windy and foggy weather. Fortunately, the Nan'ao Bridge is now open, making it much more convenient to get in and out of the island by car or car.

Tire and Rim Association (abbreviation of TireandRimAssociation)

1. It is very convenient if you drive yourself. You can enter Nan'ao Island directly through the bridge.

2. If you are driving, you have two options:

a. Take the bus. There is only one bus entering Nan'ao Island, which is Route 161, which is divided into Line AB. The starting point and end point are Qishan Bus Terminal - Nan'ao County. The first bus is at 07:00 and the last bus is at 18:30. Compared with Line A, it is slightly faster. It is recommended to take Line A directly to the island. The whole journey takes 2.5 hours and costs 14 yuan.

b. Take a private car. Taking the bus will take a little longer. If there are just four of you, it is recommended that you take a private car to the island. It’s about 20 to 30 people per person, but it saves time. You can go directly to the island in Shantou.

If you want to take a taxi, remember that taxis in Shantou are not priced by time and kilometers. You must first ask them how much they cost, and then haggle hard! Bargain! Bargain! He pays you a high price on purpose because he might mistake you for a stranger.

5. Accommodation arrangements

There are no chain hotels like Seven Days and Jinjiang Inn on the island, only some slightly more expensive ordinary hotels. But if you are not picky, you can live in a private room. The price is not expensive, more than 100 per night. These hotels are run by the islanders themselves. They are not a few stars, but they are clean and affordable. If you are going on vacation, you must book in advance. Otherwise, you may not be able to find a house to live in Nan'ao Island because it is full during the holidays.
