My dream of helicopter flight was realized on Dong'ao Island in Zhuhai. Recently, the weather has been really hot, and the kids have been nagging about wanting to go out and play in the water. Just in time, a friend recommended that now when visiting Dong'ao Island in Zhuhai, you can choose to take a helicopter to the island via the 'Zhuhai Jiuzhou Airport---Dong'ao Island helicopter round-trip route. Oh my, it feels like shooting a Hollywood blockbuster, super cool! (I never thought I'd have the chance to experience such a 'tycoon-style' flight) Seizing this great opportunity, I hurried to try this new flying experience! From the helicopter, you can also get a bird's-eye view of the scenery along the way, with the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the Sun Moon Shell, and the scattered islands of Zhuhai all in sight. The vast sea and the lush green forests of Dong'ao Island are all visible. The smiling coastline waves at you, welcoming you to Dong'ao Island—this mutual anticipation is not just yours alone, everything on the island is waiting for your arrival~ At low tide, you can take the kids to the beach to experience sea chasing, shell picking, and other beach games like sand figure building. For adults, water sports like jet skiing and banana boating are recommended. 🚄 Travel method: After taking the high-speed train to Zhuhai, you can take a taxi to the pier to buy tickets, or search for a helicopter package like I did to fly over, although the price is a bit expensive.

!! The original plan was only for Guishan Island, but hey! The Chinese have a saying, 'Since you're already here, why not enjoy another island🏝️?' I really wanted to visit both Wailingding Island and Dong'ao Island! But as someone who gets seasick and carsick, I had to choose the closer one! So, I went to Dong'ao Island. Dong'ao Island certainly did not disappoint me! Wuuu, it's so beautiful! It's the first time in my life that I've seen such a vast sea (can't capture its beauty in photos) I declare! Dong'ao Island has the most beautiful sea I've ever seen! (for now)

Arrive at the hotel around ten in the morning on the first day (staying near the Seaside Swimming Area) Attractions are all along a coastal line. You can choose to walk, bike, or take a sightseeing bus. First stop: Seaside Swimming Area ❗❗❗Be sure to bring flip-flops when going to the beach This stop has the sea, as well as a Love Post Office and a lighthouse as two check-in spots. There are also jet ski and helicopter activities available. However, the weather wasn't great that day, so we didn't experience them. If you want to play with sand, you can buy it at a convenience store, or rent a set at a convenience point after reaching Xianglu Bay. Second stop: Matchmaker Temple It's in the same place as the Fisher Girl, and interested friends can go up and make a wish. However, you have to climb a short flight of stairs Zhuhai Fisher Girl A very typical check-in spot, where you can learn about the legends of the Fisher Girl, which is quite interesting. Correspondingly, there is the Fisher Man statue in Jingshan Park. Xianglu Bay & Seaside Park The sand at Xianglu Bay is whiter and finer than that at the Seaside Bathing Beach, and many people camp there. The Seaside Park above is also a large camping spot, and if you catch the season, you can also see the cherry blossom garden, and the Youth Forest is also an interesting place. Jingshan Park If you still have energy when you reach here, it is recommended to climb up. If you're tired, take the cable car, but it's not very cost-effective, as it only takes two to three minutes to reach the top of the mountain. The slide is extremely crowded on holidays, and we queued for over two hours, but it was somewhat thrilling, a real roller coaster. The view from the top of the mountain is also very good, but it's advised to bring a light jacket. Evening Ride back to the hotel, and there will be free singing activities on the beaches along the way. You can choose to stop and join in, or just sit and enjoy the sea breeze, because it's really nice. Second Day 🐚 The Moon and Sun Shell If possible, friends can check the theater's performance schedule in advance and buy tickets to enter. Additionally, on days with programs, the theater does not allow visitors inside. Wild Civet Island You can walk directly from The Moon and Sun Shell, with different sea views along the way.

Our walking route was: Tailang Tea House - Book House (not Shanhaijing, didn't find it this trip) - Resort Hotel - Nanmen Bay (the sea water on the island is much cleaner than in the city, and you can also see a lot of seaweed, plus there are shower rooms, so friends who don't stay on the island don't have to worry about nowhere to shower after swimming) - Plank Road - Gree Dong'ao Hotel - Wedding Hall - Honeymoon Pavilion - Return trip. We belong to the type that plays in detail at every place, and if we don't finish playing, we'll come back next time.

Summer is here, and of course, I want to go to the island with friends! Guangdong's "Little Saipan," Dong'ao Island, is finally here~ - The waves fluttering in the wind🌊 slap against the rocks, and walking barefoot on the soft sandy beach is super healing🏖️. You can also see the beautiful sunset by the sea🌄. Really, every second is well spent 'wasting time'. - 📸Photo check-in recommendations: 🔵Love Lawn & Church⛪️ It is said that many people come here to take wedding photos👰🏼. This place has witnessed a lot of sweet love💓. There's a large lawn under the blue sky and white clouds, and it feels like you can touch the sky with your hand, no matter how you take the photo, it's super cinematic. If you walk forward, there's a winding island road, and the sea breeze is really comfortable~ 🔵Boardwalk and Beach🏖️ Next to the infinity pool, there's a super long seaside boardwalk. Because it's by the sea, the wind is strong enough to deform your face🫠. If you want to see the beautiful sunset, you can also stroll towards the beach. The sand is fine, and it's very comfortable to walk on with bare feet. 🔵Popular photo spot: Moon Chair Inside the homestay, there's a popular photo spot. Ask a friend to take a picture from the stairs looking down, and you can also capture the beautiful seaside.

There are very few parking spaces inside, and they are quite expensive. - 🚌Island Transportation You can check if the homestay or hotel has a direct bus.

I really, really want to retire here~ Breathe the fresh air of the forest and the sea on Dong'ao Island, and take advantage of the summer vacation to 'waste time' here~ -

Dong'ao Island is located in the southeast of Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province, China, 30 kilometers away from Xiangzhou and in the middle of the Wanshan Islands. The area is about 4.663 square kilometers. Due to the fact that Dong'ao Bay on the east side of the island is about 1500 meters into the middle, it forms a large concave part, hence the name Dong'ao Island. The island is divided into two parts, north and south. The coast is mostly cliffs. There are many boulders on the mountain slopes, and there are many reefs within 90 meters of the shore. There are 415 residents on the island, with facilities such as a fishery station, supply and marketing cooperative, savings bank, school, and health center. There are four simple roads on the island, with a total length of 14.6 kilometers, and abundant water sources. Dong'ao Island is under the jurisdiction of Wanshan District, Zhuhai City. It is a beautiful small island with unique rocks, beautiful water, and lush flowers and trees, as well as fresh air. Dong'ao Island has preserved its original natural ecological environment very well. The white sandy beaches, blue sea, bright sunshine, and dense green forests on the island create an almost perfect ecological tourism environment. Since 1997, the Zhuhai Municipal People's Government has developed the Dong'ao Tourist Resort at the foot of Nanshawan, awakening the peaceful and charming Nanshawan. Dong'ao Island has very lush vegetation and preserves the original natural ecological environment of the island. The natural landscape is unique and charming, with the blue sky, white clouds, green mountains, and clear waters ingeniously combined to form a picturesque scene. There are magnificent sea views and gentle and beautiful forest scenes, as well as primitive and pure natural scenery and distant and broad historical relics. The colorful land customs and mysterious underwater world make people linger. Climbing the Ax Handle Mountain, overlooking the sea from the Honeymoon Pavilion, listening to the waves at the Dazhu Bay, and watching the sunrise at the Dong'ao Bay constitute the splendid natural scenery of Dong'ao Island. The Neolithic relics in Nansha Bay, the ruins of Chongcheng, the beacon tower site, and the stone carvings of "Wudang Scenery" stretch out the long history of Dong'ao Island. Deep-sea diving, playing in the sand on the beach, fishing on the shore, and swimming around the island showcase the magnificence and affinity of the sea. The seafood directly taken from the sea and the rich fishing village style will make your trip to Dong'ao novel, romantic, and comfortable. The climate on the island is pleasant, with ancient trees towering, fishing villages leisurely, and smoke curling up.
