Guest User: 上船打電話酒店來接，10分鐘就到了。早飯不錯，有雞蛋烤腸，各種主食饅頭小菜，好吃。 屋裡很乾爽不潮濕，備品齊全，連牆壁也乾乾淨淨的，空調給力。 出門幾分鐘就能趕一個礁石灘，石縫裡都是螃蟹，然後往大馬路走有一個泥灘有沙蟹貝類；去彩虹灘東水口叫個車10來分鐘就到了，酒店有趕海工具。 傍晚可以去酒店自帶的泳池玩，玩夠了出去吃飯走路10來分鐘就能到柳條海鮮市場，買完直接旁邊飯店加工，再來點小炒和餃子美滋滋。 酒店經理人特別好，我把雨傘放外面晾乾被別的客人拿走了，他幫我調視頻找客人要了回來，非常感謝他。 走的那天我們人多，酒店給調了兩輛車送到取票口取的票又送到檢票口，特別細心。 暑期島上住宿都很貴，但這家酒店位置和服務沒得説，性價比很高，下次來一定還住這👍

Guest User: Not in vain, this place is suitable for lazy people to lie flat! Talk to your girlfriends and leave, but I didn't get tired after lying in this hotel for two days! The room is in a great location. Open the window and it is a sea of mint green. Every day, you can sit on the rocking chair and watch the waves in a daze for a long time. The food is more delicious than expected. The eight kinds of seafood are very delicious. The crabs and shrimps are all alive. Rent shared bicycles around the island (the price is small), go to Moon Bay for a walk to pick up scallops at low tide, and the front desk brother also helps to shoot blockbusters on the beach. There is no entertainment at night, but there is a small bar downstairs to listen to songs and drink 8+1, listening to girlfriends bragging until midnight. The staff has no routine, borrow a charging cable, and ask for ice cubes on call. If you think the five-star hotel is too upright, it would be like living in a relative's house by the sea.

The quality of sleep is very good. Especially there is a balcony facing the sea. Sitting on the balcony blowing the sea breeze is very good. Enjoy, the hotel has an elevator, there is a large yard, There are parasols, swings and other facilities in the yard. It is very convenient to swim in the beach bathing area after wearing a swimsuit. The boss is very enthusiastic, the pick-up and drop-off are all sent, and he also helps plan the itinerary. I will stay next time.

If there is a city that perfectly blends the gentleness of the sea with the boldness of the North, it must be Dalian. This coastal city, known as the "Pearl of the North," is like a romantic poem hidden by the Bohai Bay, waiting for travelers to unfold. At Changhai Xiaoshuikou Park, stroll along the glass walkway, feel the sea breeze gently caress you, and enjoy the fresh negative ions brought by the dense vegetation, with the boundless sea in sight. At Xinghai Square, watch seagulls dance with the waves and admire the grandeur of Asia's largest city square. The sunset here is breathtakingly beautiful. At Dalian Zoo, the adorable animals show endless cuteness, making it an excellent choice for family trips, allowing you to get close to nature and feel the charm of living creatures. Step onto Dalu Island, trace the historical relics of the First Sino-Japanese War, and on the soft sandy beach, await a stunning seaside sunset, leaving unforgettable memories. Dalian is just like this, writing endless romance with mountains, sea, and vibrant life.
Choosing to visit the island on a rainy day before the summer rush officially began is the best decision of this trip. ✓ I didn't do much planning and decided to just go with the flow. I decided to go a week ago 🔛. I was worried because the weather forecast warned of continuous rain. Even the day before, the flight status showed it was subject to weather conditions. It rained heavily on the morning of departure, but it cleared up by noon. We departed as planned 🚢. Driving to Xingshutun Port from Dalian city is closer. There's parking in the yard, and there are shuttle buses for boarding and disembarking. Once you've bought your ferry ticket and gone through security, you can board when it's time. Bring some bread and sausages to feed the seagulls on the deck. The boat ride takes 50 minutes, so you'll be there in no time. After disembarking, a driver arranged by the hotel will pick you up. They are very friendly. I chose a hotel for my stay, but there are also many beautiful homestays on the island. I recommend booking your accommodation in advance; it's much more convenient to have someone pick you up when you get off the boat. For getting around the island, you can contact a driver or rent an electric scooter. The island isn't very big, so an electric scooter is more convenient and flexible. The water at Moon Bay is very clear, and the sand is very fine. It's a top choice if you're bringing kids to dig in the sand or just want to walk on the beach. Rainbow Beach is better for tide pooling, but I didn't get to experience it due to the tides. However, this meant I got to enjoy a quiet beach bathed in the sunset. I went to Aote Homestay & Bar; it's very beautiful. The food was good, and there were fireworks at night. I went to the Reef Bookstore & Cafe; the photos the owner took are beautiful. It has a stylish vibe, and the coffee is good ☕. If you have the chance, stay at their homestay. I went to Laotieshan Forest Park; it's beautiful, like a fairyland on earth. I chose to take the shuttle bus, which lets you see the scenery while saving energy. I found my own restaurants for meals, and none of them were disappointing. Many homestays offer meal packages, so just choose what works for you. The BBQ was delicious, and the owner was super nice. I'll definitely go back. Things on the island aren't too expensive; you can buy bottled water and other supplies once you arrive. Overall, this trip was relaxing and enjoyable. It felt like time slowed down. Next time, I want to experience the joy of tide pooling.

Bring your own supplies · Protect yourself from sun: September sun at the coast can still be strong.

[Scenery] [Fun] [Value for money] The scenery here is beautiful, far away from the mainland, and the air is particularly fresh. You can see the stars in the sky at night. Eat authentic fisherman's food and enjoy the vastness of the sea. The red house is a major feature here.
audjI went to Dachangshan Island in late September. There were few tourists. The island was peaceful and relaxing, and I could fully experience the island style. Strolling along Binhai Road in the city, fishing by the sea is also a scenery, and watching fishing boats. Cross the cross-sea bridge to Xiaoshuikou Forest Park. The sea water is clean and clear, and it is a beautiful place to take pictures. I took pictures of the lighthouse at Yuanyang Port on the island. I took the No. 1 bus on the island for 2 yuan to cross Dachangshan Island and Xiaochangshan Island. The slow traffic allows you to enjoy the coastal scenery and experience the local customs and customs of the small town on the island. It is worth it.
M28***49We took a boat from Pikou Port, the ticket was 55 yuan per person, and the car to the island was 320 yuan. It is recommended to drive to the island, you can carry sea-hunting tools, tents, etc., and it is convenient to play. Go to the east to watch the sunrise and go to the west to watch the sunset. The scenery is beautiful. There are no traffic lights on the island, and the speed limit is 40 on some sections; there are also taxis and electric cars that scan codes. You can take a boat with bread to feed seagulls. It is 4 pm to go to the island, and there are only a few seagulls. It is 9 am when leaving the island, and there are more seagulls. When the tide is low, there are many places on the island to go to the sea, which is very convenient. The folk customs on the island are simple and the locals are very friendly. There is a Luhai Ramen Restaurant on the island. The oyster noodles and prawn noodles are particularly delicious. It is recommended. You can also bring your own seafood for the boss to process. Accommodation recommends Changhai Moon Bay Hotel, which is located on the beach of Moon Bay. The sea view room is cost-effective and the included breakfast is also good. There are also many homestays on the island, which are very good, including food and accommodation (including three meals a day), ranging from 350 to 580 per person during the May Day holiday. You can also choose to stay only and eat at the restaurant. The breakfast shop on the island is the same price as outside, and the restaurant is not too expensive. The sea yellow croaker and black fish are delicious. The only regret is that the Fairy Lake Scenic Area is not open, so I couldn't see it. During the May Day holiday, while scenic spots across the country were full, this place was not crowded, but comfortable and cozy. In short, this trip to Guanglu Island was very happy and suitable for family leisure and entertainment.

M86***15Xiaoshuikou Park, located on Xiaochangshan Island, features two main natural landscapes: 1. A seaside boardwalk and a popular glass walkway: The 800-meter-long boardwalk includes a 30-meter-long suspended glass walkway, offering direct views of the reefs and the crystal-clear, turquoise sea. On sunny days, the water is a stunning blue-green, creating the "glass sea" effect often seen online – perfect for photos. Shoe covers are not required on the glass walkway; those with a fear of heights can use the inner path. 2. Lieyubei Viewing Platform (High Point): Climb a short section of the boardwalk for a 360° panoramic view of the archipelago, including Mingzhu Shuangtuo, Dachangshan Island, and numerous smaller islands in the distance.

Most of the boardwalk is shaded, providing shade in summer. The cool sea breeze makes it a pleasant walk, as the terrain is gentle with only a few steps, making it suitable for seniors.

audjSuch a great place, sister Wang, you haven't promoted it enough! [Scenery] [Fun] Definitely worth a visit
幽默的老常I highly recommend tour guide Xiao Wang (number ending in 8770)! His explanations are engaging and vivid, bringing the history of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China to life in a relatable way, not just reading from a textbook. He's considerate of everyone's pace, patiently answers all questions, and points out great photo spots. There's absolutely no hard selling. Only after listening to him do you truly understand the stories behind each palace and mansion. Visit him in Shenyang for a truly unforgettable experience! ✨
