Huangcuo Beach
黄厝海滩
A long sandy beach on the eastern stretch of Huandao Road, with a wide shoreline and fewer visitors than Baicheng Beach. A good place in Xiamen to watch the sunrise and play in the sand.
Huangcuo Beach lies on the eastern section of Huandao Road in Siming District. It is one of the longest and most open beaches on Xiamen Island, with soft, fine sand and casuarina forest and wooden boardwalks behind it. Early mornings bring sunrise over the sea, evenings are good for a stroll, and in summer you can swim (check the bathing area's opening times and lifeguard signs). Nearby stands a large “One Country, Two Systems, Unification of China” signboard facing Kinmen, which visitors often pose in front of. Huangcuo Village has guesthouses and snack stalls. Free admission, reachable by bus or by bike along Huandao Road.
