Beidaihe two-day one-night travel guide is here!!
🏠Accommodation
You can book a homestay near Jinmeng Bay, which is clean and affordable! There are parent-child hotels, sea view apartments, and villas to choose from in the Blue Coast area. If you're on a budget, it's recommended to stay in a homestay.
DAY1
🌟Blue Coast:
The Blue Coast has three cloud swings built on the beach that are very photogenic, and the wooden walkway allows you to experience the feeling of walking into the middle of the sea. You can also feed seagulls here!
🌟Fairy Conch Island:
The unique sea cable car in China! It takes 15 minutes to go from the coast to Fairy Conch Island. On the open-top cable car, you cross the sea! Not recommended for those who are afraid of heights~ The blue sky and the sea are endless, very romantic.
🌟Cat's Sky City
There are lots of Cat's Sky City surroundings, often with half-price goods. The sunlight through the floor-to-ceiling windows is very suitable for those who want to quietly enjoy the afternoon! Reading books and watching the sea is very comfortable, and there are also coffee and snacks.
🌟Wave bar
Walking west from Cat's Sky City, there is a huge white sailboat building, which is a bar that serves coffee in the morning and drinks in the evening. Light-colored clothes are very photogenic, and it's super comfortable to have a cocktail and enjoy the sea breeze.
🌟Tiger Stone
The best spot to watch the sunset, which is around six o'clock. Remember to pick up your camera and capture the moment of the beautiful sunset!
Back to the hotel
DAY2
🌟Pigeon Nest
Pigeon Nest Park is located at the northeast corner of Beidaihe beachfront. You can go to see the sunrise in the morning. It is one of the four major scenic spots of Beidaihe in Qinhuangdao City, with rocks, wetlands, lush trees, and abundant grass. It's an ideal habitat for birds and a world-class bird-watching destination, known as the 'Mecca of Bird Watching'.
🌟Jinmeng Bay
A free beach often visited by locals, with a long coastline, clean golden sand, and sea views that are no less than those of paid scenic spots. Just watching the sea is enough, and there are also many photogenic spots around, like the Tiffany blue KFC, the coffee shop and gift shop of the Sino-Swiss Design Port.
🌟Qinhuang Alley
A famous snack street! A wide variety of food and good taste! Compared to other snack streets, it's more expensive, but the hygiene is better.
🌟Biluo Tower Park: The northern little Santorini, one of the internet-famous spots, where you can feel the freshness of the sea and the warmth of the sun.
If you have enough time, you can also go to Beidaihe Anaya~ a literary and artistic ins-style community~

The only domestic cross-sea cableway - Xianluo Island
Transportation🚗: Drive three hours from Beijing to reach Xianluo Island directly
From Beijing, the fastest high-speed train takes one and a half hours to Beidaihe Station, then a 15min taxi ride🚖
🅿️Parking lot: Plenty of parking spaces, 10r/hour, 40r cap.
🌟Ticket: 60r/person, includes round-trip cable car🚠
There is also a combo ticket for 95r/person, which includes round-trip cable car + sightseeing cruise
The cableway is 1038 meters long, and the one-way cable car🚠 takes 15min. I personally recommend buying the 60r ticket, and you should definitely go earlier on weekends and holidays. I arrived around 7 am and queued for 2 hours. For the return trip, you can take a boat off the island to save time. You must take the cableway when going, as the scenery is very beautiful.
Island attractions🏖️: Bumper cars, pirate ship, bungee jumping, diving🤿
Photo spots📷: Seaside coffee house (Island lsland), seaside promenade, Xianluo Tower.
The island is not big, and if you don't play the attractions, you can finish touring in half an hour. The last return cable car is at 16:30, and the queue for the return trip also takes more than an hour. After that, only a boat can take you off the island, so please plan your time wisely.
Azure Coast activities🌊: No admission ticket🎫 needed, just enter the park
1️⃣ Cat's Sky City concept bookstore
2️⃣ Cloud swing on the Azure Coast☁️
3️⃣ Wave bar cafe
4️⃣ Sailing⛵️ and speedboats
During the day, everyone should be prepared for sun protection, wade in the sea, stroll through the bookstore, and finally face the sea with a cup of coffee～
Accommodation🏠: Homestays and hotels multiply their prices during holidays, so choose according to your situation.
Dining🍚: You must eat seafood by the sea, there are many restaurants near the community.
