Shaped like a long corridor, the cave is adorned with breathtaking natural stone formations that look as if they belong to an underwater dragon palace. It consists of four interconnected grand halls filled with marvelous sights.

Multiple natural stone dams enclose deep, cool pools that transport visitors into an ethereal fairyland.

A renowned national AAAA-level scenic spot, Dajiaowan sits in the southeast of Zhapo Town on Hailing Island, Yangjiang, Guangdong Province.

Located at the southwest tip of Hailing Island, Beiluowan is enclosed by mountains on three sides and faces the South China Sea to the south. Its beach is 0.6 kilometers long and 60 to 150 meters wide, featuring silky fine sand, clean water, gentle waves and a spiral-shaped bay. The bay backs onto flat land, flanked by Mawei Mountain and Wangliao Ridge facing each other. An arc-shaped hill named Tiemaozai stands at the southeast of the beach, separating a narrow rocky shore from Wangliao Ridge, home to enchanting spots including the Pirate Treasure Cave, Fairy Cave, Skyline Crack and Ox Stone. A natural lagoon runs through the northeast side of the beach, forming diverse landforms and layered scenic views.
