Haiyang Island

海洋岛

The largest island at the eastern end of the Changshan Archipelago, with high peaks and steep cliffs. From Qinglong Mountain you can look out over the Yellow Sea, and the surrounding waters hold one of China's northeastern territorial sea baseline points.

Haiyang Island is the easternmost island of Changhai County and the farthest from the mainland. Its high terrain features cliffs and sea caves, and the scenery is wild and unspoiled. From the top of Qinglong Mountain you can overlook the Yellow Sea, and nearby Nantuozi has a territorial sea baseline point. The Battle of the Yellow Sea, part of the First Sino-Japanese War in 1894, took place in nearby waters. Ferries are infrequent and usually involve a transfer from Dachangshan Island. Sometimes there is only one sailing every other day, so confirm in advance and allow plenty of time. Coordinates are set at the island's center.
