Xiaomeisha Seaside Park
Often called the “Hawaii of the East.” The beach curves like a crescent moon set between blue sky and emerald waves, with an elegant, refined charm. Generous nature has made it an ideal seaside resort for city dwellers. At night, a large open-air barbecue square operates, and visitors can also camp here, enjoying the cool sea breeze and watching the sunrise over the sea the next morning.

Dapeng Fortress
Dapeng Fortress was a coastal defence stronghold in southern China during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it still preserves its charming old city gates, watchtowers, streets and residences. Shenzhen's nickname, “Peng City” (鹏城), comes from here. During the Ming dynasty, the fortress produced many famous generals, such as Wulüe General Liu Zhong and the Lai family's “five generals across three generations”, earning it the nickname “Village of Generals”. Visitors can see many former generals' residences as well as relics related to coastal defence.

Just a few decades ago, it was a small fishing village. Today it is home to Sea World, Wanghai Road, the lighthouse, countless delicious foods and scenery you never tire of. As the city has developed at breakneck speed, Shekou has been its witness.

Nan'ao (Dapeng Peninsula)
Perhaps you've seen the seascapes of Sanya, or even Hawaii, but that won't stop you from discovering Nan'ao's raw, down-to-earth sea. Here you'll also find the Dongxichong coastline, which fellow travellers call “the most classic coastal hiking route”. Beginner hikers can give it a try. Besides the thrill of walking the shoreline, you'll enjoy views of Dongxichong Beach. There are no elaborate amusement facilities here, but the sea shows its natural, unspoiled character, making it ideal for families of all ages and for couples. After a day of play, sitting down for a drink, or inviting friends for a card game with the sea view, is pure bliss. Also, the most popular thing to do in Nan'ao is eat seafood on the floating fish rafts (渔排), which are like open-air seafood stalls bobbing on the water.
