Huangcuo Sand Beach

🚶The island road is really suitable for citywalk!!! I like the essence of this place, especially these four places!!! It's even more beautiful when the tide comes in~ 1⃣Haiyun Platform: 🤩The moon slope is here!! There are also beautiful coffee shops here~ Beaches, lawns, everything! 2⃣Xitou Xia: 🤗It's relatively niche, Huangcuo Beach is here~ Walk all the way to the sea, there are also huge reefs, it's extremely beautiful when the weather is good! 3⃣Zengcuo'an: 😜There are lots of delicious food, you can see the sunset on the Fishbone Bridge~ The music square is also nearby. You can come here for lunch and start shopping, or shop until you eat dinner here~ 4⃣Pearl Bay: 🥰That beautiful tree is here! Many people will come here to take wedding photos~ There will be fewer people here~

1⃣️The essence of Xiamen's attractions is concentrated in Siming District, where the high-speed railway station is also located. Accommodation can be arranged in the Zengcuoan area, which is convenient for going to other places and has hotels and homestays of various price ranges. 2⃣️If you only play in Siming District, the itinerary can be set for three days and two nights. The route is Zengcuoan—Huangcuo Beach—Shapowei—Bashi—Gulangyu 3⃣️It is recommended to go to and from Gulangyu in one day. Regardless of the off-peak season, the accommodation on the island is relatively expensive. Take a boat from the Cruise Center Xiamen Drum Pier to the Neicuoao Pier, the ticket is 35 per person. 4⃣️The most romantic travel experience in Xiamen is to ride an electric bike around the island road, starting from Zengcuoan and riding along the island road and the south island road to Xiangshan Yacht Club, riding and enjoying the scenery, stopping when you see a beautiful place, round trip 3 hours. 5⃣️As the central coastal city of Fujian, Xiamen's consumption is not low, the cost of three days and two nights is about 1k, two nights in Zengcuoan 400+, car rental and food 600+ 6⃣️Don't miss the Bashi Old Street in Xiamen for food hunting. This is the most lively food street in Xiamen, a seafood market, with many authentic food stalls, affordable prices

That is the Island Ring Road. Here, you can watch the sunrise at Huangcuo Beach, feel the tranquility and beauty of the early morning. By evening, the sunset scenery of Baicheng is equally shocking. The beautiful scenery of the Island Ring Road is intoxicating, like a flowing scroll. So, how can you enjoy all the charm of this route? Here is our carefully planned best sunset citywalk route for the Island Ring Road: 1. Huangcuo Beach: Start your journey, feel the intimate contact with the beach and the sea, and enjoy a unique tranquility. 2. Xitou Xia: Leave the beach, step into the seaside plank road, feel the unique chill atmosphere, and appreciate the clear sea water. 3. Music Square: Sit on the bench, let the sea breeze blow, listen to the melody of the sea, and enjoy a sense of comfort and comfort. 4. Tianquan Pedestrian Square: Continue to move forward, feel the greenery on both sides of the trail, and let your body and mind relax. 5. Pangui Tower: The final destination, where you can enjoy the beautiful sunset scenery. Looking at the Twin Towers, it seems that time has stopped. We suggest you start from Huangcuo Beach around 3 pm, walk slowly, and appreciate slowly, about 2 hours later you will reach Pangui Tower. It is sunset time, you can wait quietly for the sun to slowly sink below the sea level, and feel that wonderful moment. There are many cafes in the Huangcuo Wanyuepo area that offer beach afternoon tea service, where you can enjoy a wonderful time. The Island Ring Road in Xiamen gives you a different citywalk experience, you absolutely cannot miss it!

Attraction name: Huangcuo sand beach Location: East Xiamen Located only ten minutes from the centre of Xiamen and only twenty minutes from the airport, I recommend going to Huangcuo Beach. Why? It’s quiet, the sand is soft, the waves are calm and there are many quaint coffee shops with sea views. We enjoyed walking along the beach and then entered a coffee shop with a sea view. There is ample outside sun loungers and air conditioned seating in the coffee shops and it’s a great summer oasis. #summerbreak #beach #xiamen

Although Xiamen beaches aren’t as lush as those in Hainan, you can still have a great holiday here! 🌊 Find the hidden beach by entering 黄厝海滨 Huángcuò Hâibīn, a popular scenic spot in the southern district of Siming district. I stayed at the Atour hotel and rode a shared bike here. It’s about a 15 minute ride. You can also take a DiDi or walk along the paved rode next to the beach. 🚲 This area can get pretty crowded on weekends and holidays so head further south past the Asian Gulf Hotel, and walk towards the pedestrian bridge. You’ll see large boulders that appear as if this area is blocked off, but it isn’t! 😃 Look for a cozy nook between the rocks and enjoy. Bring your towel, snacks, Bluetooth speaker, and a great book and spend the day. At night you can have dinner at the Asian Gulf Hotel restaurant which you can enter directly from the beach. 🌙 With ongoing restrictions in Sanya, a beach trip is still possible! 🏖 #mytripvlog #chinatrips #xiamen #asiagulfhotel #atourhotel #hiddenbeach #secretbeachxiamen #secretbeach #thejesstination #beachlife #passionpassport

|. Xiamen Super Practical Guide, recommended for friends visiting Xiamen in March!||||||This is my second visit to Xiamen, and the most important thing comes first: you must choose a sunny day when coming to Xiamen! Blue sky, blue sea, good mood! ♦️ One, Transportation and Accommodation 1. If you like to see the sea, it is suggested to book a place near Huangcuo Beach. If you prefer convenient transportation, consider booking near Zhongshan Road. I booked near Huangcuo. 2. Exit Xiamen North Station and directly transfer to Line 1 to see the sea train Spirited Away. ♦️ Two, Itinerary Day1⃣️ 【Route: Nanputuo Temple, Shapowei, Zengcuo'an, Baicheng Beach】 1. Nanputuo Temple⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Scan the code to make a reservation before entering the temple. A serious visit can take two hours, and you can get a free incense stick at the entrance. 2. Shapowei⭐️⭐️⭐️ There are lots of handmade jewelry stalls in the Art West District, very unique, a must-visit for girls, and the graffiti wall is also great for photos. 3. Zengcuo'an⭐️ Too commercialized, even less recommended to eat here, expensive and a rip-off with no substance! 4. Baicheng Beach⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The coast is beautiful, it is recommended to go between 15:00-17:00 in the afternoon, the evening sea breeze is too cold! (The whole route can be done by citywalk + renting a bike to cycle around the island, it's really comfortable) Day2⃣️ 【Route: Eighth Market, Zhongshan Road, Huaxin Road, Xingfu Road, Huangcuo Beach, Yefengzhai】 1. Eighth Market + Zhongshan Road + Huaxin Road + Xingfu Road⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Eighth Market is a food paradise! Must-try restaurants are mentioned in the food section. Xingfu Road is super photogenic, with Ge You at p9 and the "Xiamen" check-in spot at p8 nearby. 2. Huangcuo Beach⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The most recommended spot! Stunningly beautiful! Any tree you choose to take photos with looks great! Must visit, must visit, must visit! ♦️ Three, Food Section 🟢1. Nanputuo Temple: Mung bean filling vegetarian cake 15 yuan/box⭐️⭐️⭐️ The vegetarian noodles at Haihui Lou❌ are not tasty, it's recommended to eat at the vegetarian buffet store outside the temple. 🟢2. Xuji Old Xiamen Special Satay Noodles (behind Huangcuo)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When in Xiamen, you must try satay noodles. We had satay noodles three times, and the most recommended is Xuji Old Xiamen Special Satay Noodles near Huangcuo, with plenty of ingredients and great taste! Generous with seafood. The satay noodles eaten at Zengcuo'an❌ had not even a single shrimp and still cost 30 yuan. 🟢3. Jiawei Zaitian Snack Shop (Eighth Market) The prices are reasonable, and their extra-ingredient meat zongzi is highly recommended, really delicious! A friend ordered a taro bun which felt average. Key point: Be sure to calculate the price of the food you want to eat first, then transfer the money at the cashier, and tell the lady how much food stamps you want, then exchange the stamps for meals at the window! Calculating it yourself first saves more time.

The most photogenic and best place to watch the sea in Xiamen!!!

The fleeting romance of Huangcuo Beach at sunset🌄 Huangcuo Beach is quite lively at 4:00. I went there a bit early and was super tired. Everyone can just arrive half an hour before sunrise. I felt completely healed❤️‍🩹 Huangcuo Beach

During my recent visit to Xiamen, China, I had the pleasure of discovering a hidden gem along its picturesque coastline—a beach unlike any other. As I stepped onto the soft, golden sands, I was greeted by the soothing sound of the waves and the fresh, salty breeze. The water stretched out before me, a mesmerizing shade of blue, so clear I could see the gentle movements of fish below. 🌊🐟 What truly captivated me, however, was the presence of the National Dolphin Protection Service. Their dedication to preserving the marine environment was evident in every aspect of the beach. The water was pristine, the beach immaculately clean, and the surrounding nature undisturbed. 🐬🌿 As I explored further, I learned about their efforts to protect the local dolphin population, ensuring their habitat remains safe and undisturbed. It was heartwarming to see such commitment to conservation, and it inspired me to be more mindful of my own impact on the environment. 🌏💙 In addition to the natural beauty and conservation efforts, the beach offered various amenities for visitors. From comfortable lounging areas to water sports facilities, there was something for everyone to enjoy. I spent hours relaxing under the sun, taking in the serene surroundings and feeling grateful for this beautiful experience. 🌞🏄♂️ My visit to this beach was not just a day at the seaside—it was a journey into the heart of conservation and appreciation for the natural world. I left feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and deeply connected to the ocean and its inhabitants. If you're looking for a truly enchanting beach experience, look no further than this hidden paradise in Xiamen. #ConservationParadise #OceanicBliss
