## About Crocodile Mountain Volcano Park

This is the best place to see the most complete remains of volcanic activity on the island. The park includes Crocodile Mountain Lighthouse, the volcanic crater site, Dragon Palace Exploration, Hundred Beasts Frolicking in the Sea, coral sedimentary rock, and Haikushilan (Seas Dry, Stones Rot), along with other geological wonders such as volcanic bomb impact craters, fossilised ancient trees, and Water Curtain Cave. The island's landmark, the lighthouse, serves as a guiding light for fishermen. From the observation deck at the top, you can gaze out over the boundless blue coastline and, on clear days, make out the city of Beihai in the distance.
