in the north, six, seven or eight months, up to September. In the south, the time is much longer, from April to November.

1. Xindaihe Waterfront on Laoting Island in Tangshan

Laoting County, Tangshan City, Hebei Province, is located in the southeast coastal area of Tangshan. It has been established for nearly 911 years, and is known as the "granary in eastern Hebei", "Tianfu in eastern Yandong" and "land of plenty of fish and rice", and is also the hometown of Li Dazhao. In recent years, tourist areas such as seashore and island have been developed in Laoting coastal area, with Xindaihe (Repulse Bay Bath) as the center and radiating to the surrounding areas. Laoting tourism has become a new choice for Beijing tourists after Beidaihe, Gold Coast and other famous seaside tourist areas in just two years.

Laoting

The main seaside resorts in Laoting area:

1. Xindaihe (Repulse Bay Bath) Resort

Repulse Bay Bath, also known as Xindaihe Resort, is the main tourism brand of Laoting tourism, with clear water and fine sand, which has a unique flavor]. It is located on Dawang Island, 35km southwest of Laoting County and 11km southwest of Jingtang Port. Here, sunshine, sea water and beaches are in harmony, and in recent years, it has become a new place for some self-driving enthusiasts and family tourists in Beijing and Tianjin to escape the summer and relax. There are more than ten hotels and farmhouses with different grades, large and small, in Xindaihe Resort, and ordinary tourists can basically find their own accommodation and dining standards.

Tips: each person has to pay an entrance fee of RMB 11 to enter the Xindaihe (Repulse Bay Bath) Resort. Stay in the scenic spot and leave the scenic spot free of charge before checking out.

2. Xiangyun Bay is a newly opened Xiangyun Bay Resort, 2 kilometers away from Xindaihe Resort (tickets are free at present). Xiangyun Bay currently only has simple service facilities for beach tourism, and there is a hot spring club near the beach. While enjoying the sunshine, beaches and breezes, tourists can try the seaside hot springs for a change.

Xiangyun Bay Resort has not been open for a long time, so its reputation is not very great, and the number of tourists here is obviously much less than that of the surrounding beaches.

water quality comment: perhaps because there are few tourists on weekdays, the seawater here is very clean. When the tide rises and falls or the wind is strong, you can clearly see waves of white waves rushing to the beach layer by layer. Because you can't see the foamy white goo that is common in seawater, tourists are more willing to get close to the seawater.

sandy feeling: barefoot walks back and forth on the beach twice, and when it stops, the soles of the feet will naturally heat up, as comfortable as just finishing a pedicure. The sand on the beach is soft, greasy and clean. Don't say that playing with sand is children's favorite. Even adults are willing to indulge themselves temporarily on the beach here. Beach volleyball, football, sand bathing and burying people … as long as you can think of entertainment on the sand, you can play it unscrupulously.

Three islands tourism: Bodhi Island, Yuetuo Island and Golden Sand Island are also called "Laoting Three Islands". If you have had enough time to visit the seaside, you can also choose to take a boat trip to the nearest island, and the tourism projects and landscapes of these three islands are even more "three-dimensional": from beaches, reeds, wetlands, birds, animals, temples, catching seashells, hunting fish ... The "three islands" trip will undoubtedly add points to your trip to Laoting. This advantage is also beyond the reach of established seaside resorts.

Laoting

Tips for Xiaolang:

Eating and drinking: Laoting's seafood such as Meretrix meretrix, Cymbidium giganteum, Clam Scapharca, Octopus constricta and sea crab can make people addicted to seafood, and the special dish "Octopus Stewed Meat" has a special flavor.

Self-driving route:

Starting from Beijing, take the Beijing-Shenyang Expressway (with a speed limit of 1.21km/h), and turn right at Tangshan East Exit (Luannan, Laoting and Jingtang Port Exit) at 156km to take the Tianjin-Tangshan Expressway. After about 21 kilometers, the Jingtang Port exit ("Kaiping District, Jingtang Port") goes to the Laoting exit of Tanggang Expressway (speed limit is 111 km/h) (or to the terminal of the expressway). After entering Laoting County, take Dazhao Road to the southeast and go straight to Tanggang Development Zone, and about 8 kilometers southwest of Jingtang Port to Laoting Xindaihe (Repulse Bay) Resort.

Second, Emerald Island is a "desert" on one side of the sea (highly recommended! I've been there once, and I just charged a car fee, which seems to be 21 nights. Camping there at night, listening to the sound of the sea at night, is absolutely romantic. Those who have the courage can also go sand skiing during the day, which is a bit like the snowy mountain that Taoranting played when I was a child, but it is much more exciting.)

Emerald Island is one of the eight national marine nature reserves in China. Located in the southern coast of Gold Coast, Changli County, Qinhuangdao City, Hebei Province. Surrounded by the Bohai Sea and Qilihai (lagoon) on the east, north and west, it is a peninsula composed of yellow fine sand and green vegetation. The sand hills on the island are undulating and beautifully shaped, with the highest point reaching 44 meters and Fiona Fang about 7 square kilometers, which is known as the "JD.COM Desert".

The island is a kingdom of birds, and almost one third of the birds in China can find them, among which there are 68 species of birds under special state protection, which is one of the main habitats and breeding places of the black-billed gull, a "rare bird in the world".

amphioxus, praised as a "living fossil" by animal taxonomists, is the dominant species of benthos in this area, with a density of 1.135 fish/m2 near the 15m isobath in shallow water, which is one of the areas with the highest distribution density in China at present.

Rowing on Emerald Island is very interesting

The coast of Emerald Island is fine in sand, gentle in beach and flat in tide, which is very suitable for swimming. Climbing up the sand mountain not far away is like entering the desolate Gobi desert. It's as cool as it is to sit on the slope of the sand mountain and fly down, jump over the gentle sand by the sea and go straight to the embrace of the sea.

Emerald Island

Because of the low pollution, small fish can be seen swimming in the sea. You can see many birds hanging around here. If you are lucky, you can have a face-to-face meeting with the "world rare bird" black-billed gull, or let the "living fossil" amphioxus swim with you ...

Play: sand surfing and rolling space balls are all recreational projects in Emerald Island, and it is also good to have a seaside camping and bonfire party.

Jade Island

Small Wave Tip:

Eat and drink: The barbecue buffet at the seaside will keep your appetite, and the food includes fresh sea fish, squid, kebabs and so on. You can also go to the Gold Coast Aquatic Products Market to buy seafood and find a shop to process it. It costs tens of yuan, and many restaurants are happy to help.

Ticket price: 35 yuan in the off-season (September-February) and 55 yuan in the peak season (July-August)

3. Zhimiao Bay Waterfront, Huludao City, Liaoning Province (I have been here once, but it was not developed at that time, and it is far from Beijing, but it is definitely n times less than Nandaihe people. People who like to swim in the sea and catch crabs must not miss it)

Zhimiao Bay, Wanjia Town, Suizhong County. This is a small pier with original ecological features, beautiful environment, no pollution and simple folk customs. Jieshi beach there is relatively quiet and quiet, and it is a good place to swim. The nearby harbor, with shallow sand and clear water, is a good place to catch crabs. Not only can you enjoy playing in the water, but you can also enjoy a big meal and enjoy a seafood dinner. Because it is far away from the city, it is particularly quiet, adding a quiet and serene. Walking into this natural beach, you will feel far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and find your own peace.

Zhimiao Bay

strolls in the harbor full of original ecology, swims and plays with water in Jieshi seashore, catches the sea and crabs barefoot in the sand-filled shoal, lives in the yard where old corn and soybeans grow, and greets seafood feasts as much as possible: conch, pippi shrimp and so on.

Zhimiao Bay

Have fun: When you go to Zhimiao Bay, you are looking for peace. A quiet fishing village is the best place to lie on the beach and watch the sea quietly, watch the sunset on the sea in the evening, and listen to the sound of the waves around the campfire in the night by the sea ...

Zhimiao Bay

Xiaolang Tips:

Eat and drink: crabs, shrimps, clams, fresh shellfish and prawns ... Zhimiao Bay's rich seafood feast should not be missed. In addition, there are fishermen fishing in the early morning by the sea, and fresh seafood can be bought from fishermen at reasonable prices.

self-driving: Zhimiao Bay in Suizhong is more than 311 kilometers away from Beijing, and the Hebei section of the expressway costs RMB 115 to go along the Beijing-Shenyang Expressway-Shanhaiguan-Wanjia exit, and then go straight for about 11 kilometers to Zhimiao Bay, and it takes about 3 hours to drive one way.

special note: don't live by the sea. We lived by the sea at first, too. People's hearts are dark, and the power is always cut off or the voltage is extremely low. I didn't eat well either.

Qingdao is half the sea and half the city

Qingdao is a coastal city in the east of China. But it's not just the sea here. There are many keywords, many romances, many melancholy and many calmness in this city. There are also fresh beer, cherry blossoms, German architecture and northern men. The overwhelming blue, red tiles, green trees and slightly salty sea breeze make people here and here calm and carefree. The vigorous industry and rapid economic development always remind us that there is infinite vigor and vitality here.

boardwalk on the seashore

Five must-see attractions in Qingdao:

1. Badaguan

Qingdao's "red tiles, green trees, blue sea and blue sky" is perfectly interpreted here. Ten roads crisscross, parks and courtyards are combined together, and there are lush trees and flowers blooming all the year round on both sides of the road. There are different kinds of trees on the sidewalk, such as peach trees planted all over Shaoguan Road, which bloom in spring and are pink as ribbons; Ziwei is planted all over Zhengyangguan Road and blooms in summer. Juyongguan Road is a five-pointed maple, which is frosted and dyed with maple red in autumn; On both sides of Zijingguan Road are rows of cedars, which are evergreen all the year round; Ning Wuguan Road is a begonia ... from the beginning of spring to the end of autumn, flowers bloom constantly, and it is known as the "Flower Street". You can ignore all the places in Qingdao, but you can't stay here for an afternoon. The tranquility and beauty of Qingdao are all here.

2. boardwalk along the seashore

Qingdao has a long coastline and is also the most beautiful place. When people set foot on the wooden plank road, or watch the ebb and flow of the tide, or watch the red flowers and green leaves along the way, or watch the city scene, they almost gave a chorus of admiration. This is the most romantic, authentic and persistent lifestyle.

3. Laoshan

"Although Mount Tai is high in clouds, it is not as high as the East China Sea Lao". The reputation of "the first mountain on the seamount" is not a hollow reputation. The most beautiful thing in Laoshan is the sea view, not the mountain scenery. When the car hovers on the mountain road to the gate of Laoshan Scenic Area, you will forget where you are in an instant when you look at the cliffs and the sea on one side. Is it the sea of love or the Pacific Ocean? Nothing matters anymore.

Golden Beach

4. Golden Beach

Although it is as far as Huangdao (Qingdao Development Zone), it is a long way. However, if you want to see the real coastline, rather than a narrow and gravel-covered coast like a trestle or a bath, you must go to Golden Beach. Take the ferry from the ferry to Huangdao and take the 18 bus to the Golden Beach. The ferry and bus take at least 1.5 hours. Friends who are going to check the weather and set off early.

5. Sea dams

There are many small dams in Qingdao, some of which are used to enclose marine products and some have other purposes. When the tide is low, sit here and watch the sea and sunset. Just like the rich and enjoyable history of China. It is actually these long periods that have pulled human civilization for thousands of years.

Laoshan Mountain

Little Wave Tips:

Eating and drinking: The classic representative dishes of Yunxiao Road Food Street, Maidao Food Street and Qingdao are minced sea cucumber, abalone in its original shell, Qingdao beach crab, prawn-roasted cabbage, hot and sour fish balls and fried oyster yellow. In addition, seafood snacks in the west of Qingdao can also make you feel elated. Apart from spicy clams all over Qingdao, there are prawn noodles in Guxiang Village, sea jelly in Xinya, grilled squid in Meidar, ribs rice in Wanhechun and whole fish in casserole along Zhongshan Road.

train: you can take the bullet train from Beijing to Qingdao, and it takes 5.5 hours to arrive from Beijing south to Qingdao, with five flights every day, and the fare is 275 yuan.

V. Xingcheng Seaside Protected Ancient City of Ming and Qing Dynasties

Xingcheng Seaside National Scenic Spot is the only one in China that integrates mountains, seas, islands, springs and cities. There is a beautiful seashore known as the "Second Beidaihe", a majestic first mountain, a chrysanthemum island with magnificent seascape, a hot spring group with a leisure and holiday atmosphere, and a well-preserved ancient city of Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Shoushan

There are four scenic spots that must be visited in Xingcheng:

1. Shoushan

is named after the three peaks stand tall and look like people's heads. It is a natural barrier standing in the northeast of the ancient city. If you want to keep the ancient city, you must climb the first mountain. Therefore, Shoushan is a battleground for military strategists in past dynasties. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the first mountain was the main battlefield. The beacon tower built in the Ming Dynasty is preserved on its main peak. It has been designated as a national forest park. The first mountain is beautiful, looking like a girl lying on her back from afar, and she is full of exquisiteness. Every time a light cloud falls around the Yunfeng, there will be a beautiful scene of "three cloud crowns". Clouds are as long as white gauze, but if there are no clouds, the peaks and hills are hidden and enchanting, just like still hiding half her face from us behind her guitar, a young girl, who is graceful and graceful. The ancients once gave her a resounding name-"Three Clouds Crown", and made it the first of the eight scenic spots in Xingcheng.

2. Xingcheng Hot Spring

Formerly known as "Tangquan", it is located between the ancient city and the seashore. Hot spring is a natural mineral spring formed by underground lava. The spring water is clear and transparent, colorless and odorless. The water temperature is about 67, the pH value is 7.4, and the specific gravity of the spring water is 1.116. It belongs to the high-temperature weak alkaline salt mineral spring. Spring water contains potassium, sodium, calcium, ammonium, sulfur, magnesium and other minerals, and also contains a certain amount of radioactive elemental radon and radium. Spring water can be taken orally, washed and bathed, mainly by bathing. Hot springs can get rid of diseases, and have obvious curative effects on rheumatic arthritis, Kaschin-Beck disease, neurasthenia, hypertension, dermatosis, chronic gynecological diseases and recovery after surgery. Healthy people bathing in hot springs can refresh themselves and relieve fatigue ...

3. Xingcheng Ancient City

is a precious historical heritage left over 511 years ago, the most intact Ming Dynasty ancient city in China, and a national-level cultural relics protection unit. Xingcheng Ancient City was built in the third year of Xuande in Ming Dynasty (AD 1428). The ancient city is slightly square, with a perimeter of 3274 meters, a height of 8.88 meters, a bottom width of 6.5 meters and a top width of 5 meters. A crib is built along the outer edge of the wall top, and a parapet is built inside. There is a city gate in the center of the city wall, which is called Chunhe Gate in the east, Yanhui Gate in the south, Yongning Gate in the west and Weiyuan Gate in the north. Towering arrow towers were built on the gates, and footpaths were built inside the gates along the city walls. Fortresses are built at four corners, protruding from the corner of the city, to set up the Red Yi cannon. In the battle of Ningyuan in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Nuerhachi, the Qing Taizu, was hit by the Red Yi cannon and was seriously injured. He died shortly after returning to Shengjing.

4. Xingcheng Seaside

is a national 4A-level scenic spot. She is very similar to Seattle in the United States and Qingdao in China. The bathing beach stretches for 14 kilometers and consists of four bathing beaches, namely the first, second and third bathing beaches, namely Xinghai Bay, Gangkou Bay, Taijiawan and Laolongwan. It is the largest natural bathing beach in northern China. There are no reefs in the bathing beach, and the beach on the shore is soft and white, glittering and translucent as jade. The depth of the sea is suitable, the water is stable and clear, crystal clear, and the coastal terrain is open and covered with green trees.
