a tour guide to Naozhou Island in Zhanjiang City
I. Introduction of scenic spots
1 Turtle City
Turtle City and Nayan Beach are very close, so the two scenic spots can be visited together. There are nearly ten big turtles hundreds of years old in Turtle City. It is said that turtles are spiritual and can bring good luck. I don't really believe in these things, but I went to see them out of curiosity. The first time I saw it, I was really shocked. The turtle was bigger than a man. I didn't feel it the second time I went to see it. Tickets for 5 yuan/person will provide a small pot of wax gourd to feed the turtles.

When the weather is fine, the sea is vast and blue. At first glance, the water meets the sky, and the sea is vast and calm. The most special thing is the large volcanic lava reef on the shore, which is the rock left over from the volcanic eruption hundreds of thousands of years ago, and it is piled up on the seaside, where the waves beat and the wind and frost eroded. A large area of black volcanic rocks is strewn at random and hard. The sea pounded violently, stirring up layers of waves, and it went on and on, year after year.
whenever I climb these rugged rocks and look at the boundless sea, I always think of Cao Cao's "Jieshi in the east" to see the sea. The waves are beating and the waves are surging. " The universe is boundless and the mountains and seas are vast. Under such magnificent scenery, ambition can't help but surge from the bottom of my heart.
3 Naozhou Lighthouse
For a tourist, this is just a simple lighthouse, and there is nothing to see. But it is such an ordinary-looking building, which has extraordinary significance and function to Naozhou Island. According to records, this lighthouse was honed with flower stone crystal, and was built in 1899. The chart elevation is 13 meters, the tower height is 23 meters, the tower base is square pier-shaped, 5 meters wide, the tower body is cylindrical, and the top is 4 meters wide. The lighthouse is made of hard granite with different sizes and shapes. The granite is closely linked with each other, and the connection is seamless and very firm. There are 83 spiral steps from the bottom to the top of the tower. It is as famous as London and the Cape of Good Hope Lighthouse, and is listed as one of the three famous lighthouses in the world. It always shimmers and guides one sail after another to return.
4 Cunliang Bay
This scenic spot is as poetic and romantic as its name suggests: a beautiful and bright bay remains. I was first attracted to Naozhou Island because of the scenery here. I love the dusk of the bright bay. The sunset slowly falls on the sea, and the red sunset glow shines on the water, sparkling and glittering.
when the setting sun is completely hidden on the other side of the sea, the tide on this side gradually recedes, and a number of fishing boats drifting outside have returned to Hong Kong, stationed and stayed safely and quietly. For fishing boats, this is home, which is warm, safe and peaceful. Twilight rises, the gray-blue night hangs over this calm bay, and the lights of every fishing boat are on, flickering and flickering. It's like talking to each other, talking about the experiences of a day wandering at sea, and it's like telling the ancient secrets about this sea.
It's rich and interesting. There are not only returning fishing boats, but also the silent turquoise beach stone, small fish and shrimps hidden under the stone, conchs with different shapes, colorful starfish, grotesque shells, and white transparent jellyfish stranded and never going back to the sea.
second, seafood feast
the seafood caught by yourself is not enough. In the morning, you can go to the dock to buy all kinds of seafood caught by fishermen. The fishing port pier of Naozhou Island is a major landscape on the island. Many people come to Naozhou Island because they crave seafood. Every morning, hundreds of fishing boats gather on the sea near the dock, and baskets of fresh fish, crabs and shrimps are transported to the shore one after another from the fishing boat warehouse. The bustling tourists and residents are out, coming and going, picking and choosing, and finally they can return with full loads. The price of seafood here is slightly lower, but it is not cheap. It is fresh, natural and original. You have to rub a meal before you come to Naozhou Island to trip worthwhile.
Huge green lobsters, fat red crabs, and fat roasted oysters ...
The night at the pier of Naozhou Island is also a beautiful scene, with thousands of lights and fishing songs, which seems to be a "city in the sea" connected by ships. Come to a barbecue in the evening and feel the refreshing and slightly fishy smell of the sea breeze in the fireworks, which is the memory of the island alone.

5. Warm tips
1. The island belongs to an undeveloped natural island, with limited accommodation conditions. The best local hotel is equivalent to the 3-star standard.
2. There are many seafood stalls near the pier, and the local islanders are simple and affordable.
3. Every night, the coastal shore is dancing and singing, and the islanders are singing and dancing. Everyone can also entertain with the islanders.
4. Next to Rendu Wharf is Mazu Tempel, which faces the sea. The buildings and trees here are unique and very distinctive. Because of the narrow road, I suggest you walk to visit.
5. The time to catch the sea should be arranged by the fishermen. The fishermen should arrange the Shanghai time according to the ebb and flow of the tide, so don't be impatient. If you can't catch the sea due to weather or irresistible reasons, please discuss it separately.
6. The most abundant and famous marine products in Naozhou Island: Naozhou abalone, Naozhou green lobster, Naozhou white pomfret, dried seafood by Naozhou yellow croaker fishermen, etc. These seafood fishermen can help pack ice foam boxes, which are convenient to carry and keep fresh. The price is also very favorable. You can buy it for your relatives and friends.
7. Be sure to pay attention to the rocks under your feet to prevent cuts and slips; Be careful not to scratch your small hand when chiseling oysters.
