What tourist attractions and fun spots are there in Huizhou?
Xiayong Huzhou Bay
Huzhou Bay Beach is located in Xiayong Town, Huizhou City, within Daya Bay waters. It is hailed as the Oriental Hawaii, boasting long, soft coastal shores, crystal-clear seawater, minimal sediment, gentle waves and clean sand free of debris. Camping here allows you to fully soak in the unspoiled coastal scenery.
Pine woods spread across the beach, providing cool shade under the trees for summer retreats and relaxation. The wide, flat shore is ideal for team games like name-tag tearing. There is also an affordable horse-riding ground where you can experience galloping freely on horseback.
As night falls, soft sea breezes sweep over the shore; barbecuing and sipping cold beer on the beach deliver unparalleled joy. Woken by morning sunlight, you may stroll along the coastline stretching from Xiayong to Xiaojingwan and admire the gentle sea bathed in sunrise glow — this is a classic coastal sightseeing route.
Bijia Changsha Bay
Changsha Bay sits in Bijia Village at the far western end of Pinghai Town, Huidong County, Huizhou City, home to the Pinghai Power Plant. This tranquil bay boasts exquisite scenery and remains one of the rare original ecological coastal havens.
On the opposite side of the bay lies Egret Island, where flocks of white egrets dance in the air. Further offshore is the undeveloped Sangzhou Island, featuring stunning landscapes and transparent seawater.
You can camp on the sand, run and frolic along the shore with friends, or take part in fun team-building games amid the premium coastal setting to see who claims the title of winner with high EQ and IQ. At night, join a grand bonfire music party filled with singing, laughter and cheerful vibes.
European-style Scenery at Eastern Bay
Hezheng Eastern Bay is situated in Huizhou City within the South China Sea International Bay Area, emerging as another world-class bay following the globe’s eight renowned coastal gulfs. It features sapphire-blue seawater and top-grade fine sand, ranking among the cleanest and highest-quality bays across China.
Abundant premium coastal natural and cultural endowments equip this area with unique potential to become an international coastal holiday resort. If you join a group tour, you can stay in sea-view rooms here, offering cozy accommodation paired with unbeatable sea views — an almost perfect combination.
On this golden coastline (tickets required), you can swim in the spacious, spotless swimming pool and play beach football with other visitors. When night comes, gather with friends for beach barbecues and watch brilliant coastal fireworks light up the sky.
The Stunning Shuangyue Bay
Shuangyue Bay is located in Gangkou Town, Huidong County, Huizhou City. Viewed from above, the entire bay resembles two crescent moons placed back-to-back, hence its name Double Moon Bay.
Its most distinctive feature lies in the stark contrast between its two shores: the left bay has glassy calm waters, while the right bay surges with wild waves, presenting a vivid contrast of serenity and dynamism. Compared with the nearby Xunliao Bay, it remains relatively undeveloped.
There are countless ways to enjoy the bay: large groups of friends can hold beach barbecues, head out to sea and try water sports; families can wander along the shore and watch sunsets; visitors may also book luxurious sea-view suites and feast on fresh seafood at the upscale Hainabaina Restaurant. In short, fresh seafood and magnificent ocean vistas are Shuangyue Bay’s greatest highlights.
Another unmissable spot is the Shuangyue Bay Viewing Platform. You can hike for one hour or take a motor tricycle (around 50 RMB round trip) from Gangkou Town to the summit of Daxing Mountain, where a full panoramic view of Double Moon Bay unfolds before your eyes.
Yanzhou Island & Fanhe Village
Yanzhou Island
Also known as Dazhou Island, Yanzhou Island lies in Huizhou City. Under a subtropical marine climate, it stays warm and humid all year round with lush green foliage in every season and an annual rainfall of approximately 2,000 millimeters.
Its signature landscape is a stretch of shrubland that serves as a permanent habitat for tens of thousands of white cranes. The birds soar in flocks or frolic on the water, forming an incredibly lively and spectacular scene. The island is rich in raw sea salt, which gave it its name Salt Island.
Shooting coastal landscapes on Yanzhou Island is a brilliant choice. Vast tidal flats stretch across the shore, and the colorful basalt rock formations stand out dramatically against pounding waves, creating breathtaking natural scenery.
Fanhe Village
This ancient village nestles against mountains and faces the sea in Renshan Town, Huidong County. It boasts well-preserved ancient building complexes, time-honored folk customs and a peaceful natural harbor. The whole village is permeated with the unique traditional lifestyle of coastal residents, dotted with numerous historical relics.
Wander along the village lanes, chat with elderly locals on the roadside and immerse yourself in its simple, peaceful atmosphere.
