Nanchangtu Beach
南长涂沙滩
A long beach on the southwest side of Sijiao, backed by woodland and facing open sea. Quieter than Jihu, it is ideal for escaping the crowds, watching the sea, and camping.
South Changtu Beach lies on the southwest side of Sijiao. It is about 2 km long, with a wide, level expanse of sand backed by a protective forest and wooden boardwalks. Development here is lighter than at Jihu Beach. Summer visitors are fewer, making it suitable for family play in the shallows, beach walks, and sunset watching in the evening. A few guesthouses and seafood stalls line the beach, though dining options are limited. The beach is generally free to access, while showers and other facilities are charged separately. Getting there: a taxi from Caiyuan Town takes about 15 minutes, or take an island bus. At low tide, parts of the beach have reefs, so watch your step.
