Shengsi County
The northeasternmost island county of the Zhoushan Archipelago, known for blue seas and golden sands, fishing village guesthouses, and the Huaniao Island lighthouse, and a popular island getaway for Shanghai and Zhejiang.
Shengsi County consists of several hundred islands in the northern Zhoushan Archipelago, beyond the mouth of the Yangtze River, and is home to the Shengsi Islands, a national-level scenic area. The main island, Sijiao Island, has beaches such as Jihu and Nanchangtu; Gouqi Island is known for mussel farming and its marine ranch scenery; and Huaniao Island's century-old lighthouse and colorful fishing village are popular. Summer is peak season for island vacations, with abundant seafood; during typhoon season, keep an eye on ferry schedules. Transport relies mainly on ferries, which depart from Xiaoyangshan (Shenjiawan) port in Shanghai or from Zhoushan's main island.
