Shell Beach, Weizhou Island
贝壳沙滩
A beach on the north coast of Weizhou Island, formed by crushed shells and coral fragments. The water is clear, making it a good spot for collecting shells, playing in the shallows and simply enjoying the sea.
Shell Beach lies on the north coast of Weizhou Island. The sand is mainly made up of shells and coral fragments, giving it a pale color. The water is clear, and coral reefs can be seen close to shore. It is less crowded than the Nanwan area, making it good for collecting shells, wading and relaxing. There are several seaview cafés and guesthouses nearby. Admission is free, and it is open all day. It is about 20–25 minutes by e-bike from Nanwan. It can be linked with the Catholic church to the north and Wucai Beach to form a northern route. Notes: coral fragments are hard on the feet, so wear water shoes. Do not take live coral out of the protected area.
