1. Ningbo Xiangshan Yushan Islands
Looking for undisturbed peace
Starting from Shipu, Xiangshan, sail southeast for about 25 nautical miles to the end of Xiangshan. The islands in the southeast are the base point of China's territorial waters - the Yushan Islands. A few years ago, as the "No. 1 fishing ground in Asia", this place was only slightly famous in the fishing community. Now we are on the island again, but we are all traveling friends.
Yushan Island is divided into South Yushan and North Yushan. The one frequented by tourists usually refers to North Yushan. Looking out from Beiyushan Island, five tiger reefs of different shapes dominate the sea and are the legendary territorial sea baselines. The outside world can only be imagined by filling your head with blue.
Beiyushan Island is small, only 0.5 square kilometers. Yushan Fishing Village is also an exquisite type, and it didn’t take long to leave. The island is high in the south and low in the north. Go to the highest point to see the red and white Yushan Lighthouse, which is a "Kenting-style" romance under the blue sea and blue sky.

Hua'ao Island is located on the ocean surface of Sanmen Bay at the southern foot of Xiangshan Mountain in Ningbo, close to Taizhou. Because of the many flowers, it is named Hua'ao Island. The island has lush mountains and charming scenery. There are 36 holes and 108 holes. The scenery is beautiful and there is a fairy cave. The salty sea breeze blends with the fragrance of the island's flowers. This spring is so beautiful.
In addition to admiring flowers, you can also enjoy the beautiful stone forest on the sea, the historic Big Buddha Mountain, climb to the top of the mountain, and watch the stunning windmills up close on Hua'ao Island. Walk in the forest and feel the fresh nature brought by the thousand-year-old camphor trees; or stand alone under the sunset, overlooking the boundless sea, and have a panoramic view of the beautiful sunset.
When you come to this "fairy country of sea and mountains, Yingzhou City on earth", of course you have to eat the most authentic seafood. Gaoyi Fishing Port Pier faces Hua'ao Island across the sea.

According to legend, in ancient times there were two sacred deer in the sky, who stole the fairy fruit seeds and scattered them on the ground, which violated the laws of heaven. They were relegated to the East China Sea and formed two connected islands. From a distance, they looked like sika deer with their heads held high on the sea. This is today's Dalu Island.
This small island hanging alone in the vast East China Sea is not large, but has extremely high forest coverage and a fresh atmosphere.
The steep cliffs and sea caves formed by long-term waves are also a major feature of Dalu Island.

The setting sun and the solitary sky fly together, and the autumn water is in the same sky.
As soon as I stepped onto the pier, a strong smell of fish hit my face. The first thing that appears in front of you is rows of dragon fish hanging in the air, floating in the wind, which seems to tell people that this is a fishing island. As an ancient fishing village, Luxi Island still maintains its most primitive natural state.
The fishermen of the West Island are generous and hospitable. They are traditional and simple, and every house is open in the evening. Because of this, they have become veritable "safe islands." The island is famous for its natural island scenery, such as Shuangcong Bird Island, Northern Song Dynasty beacon tower, weathered volcanic rocks, etc.
