Baisha Island
白沙岛
A small fishing island east of Zhujiajian, known for sea fishing, reefs and fishing-family guesthouses. Ideal for an unhurried island trip away from the crowds.
Baisha Island covers only about 2.5 square kilometres. It retains the look of a fishing village, with stone houses built up the hillside, and its coast has reefs and small sandy coves. It is a well-known rock-fishing base in Zhoushan, and you can also board a fishing boat to try trawling. Guesthouses and fishing-family restaurants serve freshly caught seafood, and the night sky is excellent. A ferry from Baisha Pier on Zhujiajian takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Sailings are limited and strongly affected by the weather, so confirm your return ferry in advance. For reef fishing, pay close attention to the tides and to safety.
