Techeng Island
特呈岛
A small fishing island opposite Xiashan, with ancient mangroves and a strong fishing-village atmosphere. It is reachable by boat in about fifteen minutes.
Techeng Island lies inside Zhanjiang Harbour, southeast of Xiashan District. It is modest in size but retains mangroves several hundred years old, fishing villages and beaches, making it a leisure island close to the city. You can walk or cycle around the island. At low tide you can go shore-foraging and see the mangrove roots, or eat home-cooked seafood. Boats from Xiashan's ferry terminal take about 10 to 15 minutes. Half a day to a full day is enough. Mind the last boat times.
