Xiapu, Fujian Province is the hometown of kelp and seaweed in China. Xiapu mudflats also have the reputation of "the most beautiful mudflats in China". Here, the blue sea and silver beaches, and fishing boats sing at night; this place is picturesque and famous.

This coast covered with multicolored lights, in the thousand-year look at each other with mountains and water, is like a colorful oil painting, or like an understatement of ink and blue painting. In every day when the wind and water rise, it is beautiful and beautiful. With a beautiful attitude, calmly interprets the majestic rhythm of the sea and plays a unique and vast symphony on the sea.

This coast is covered with multicolored light, the changes of tides in the four seasons, the sky, clouds, shadows and maritime activities make this beautiful and magical sea area instantly different. The wonderful and treacherous pole shadows on the sea, the dreamy home on the sea, the gull skimming over the waves of the waves, the golden sand beach and brown reefs, the red cloud beam of light in the far sky of the harbor, the sunrise and sunset on the sea... are all so agile and amazing. There are beautiful scenery of sea culture and art such as sea farming and sea cultivation everywhere. The beach scenery is praised by the photography industry as "the most beautiful beach in China". Those simple pictures composed of points, lines and surfaces have a unique charm.

Xiapu, the "most beautiful beach in China", has now become a favorite creative base for photographers. Because of its rare beauty, more and more regular tourists are now heading to Xiapu. Xiapu is no longer a special line for a few photographers.

I have long heard that the beaches in Xiapu, Fujian are very beautiful, and they are a destination for people who love travel, especially photography. I passed by here many years ago, but I never had the opportunity to appreciate its style. From November 13th to 17th this year, I had the honor to participate in a Xiapu beach scenery photography and wind gathering study tour group. I made a special trip to Xiapu and spent a few days traveling to Xishan, Nanwan, Dongbi, Beidou, etc. About 10 shooting spots. On the long and winding tidal flats of Xiapu, people discover the unique beauty here, find exciting aesthetic interests, and also bring you a new visual experience and enjoy the fun of tidal flat photography.

This trip to Xiapu benefited from the careful planning of the organizers and the tireless efforts of the participants. Everyone carried long guns and short cannons, went out early and returned late. Coupled with the special care of God and the particularly powerful weather, the beautiful seaside scenery and cultural scenes presented everywhere were all frozen and recorded by everyone one by one. Although the trip was short, it gave people the feeling of benefiting a lot and enjoying it. It is also a journey of happiness, harvest and friendship.

D1 November 13 (Friday) Shantou-Xiapu

Xiapu has a high-speed rail station, which makes it very convenient to get to Xiapu. At around 7 a.m., we took the bullet train from Shantou Station and transitioned through Chaoshan Station, and arrived at Xiapu Station at around 2 p.m. Just in time for the afternoon team outing. We first went to the Xishan beach to take pictures, and then went to the east wall to take pictures of the sunset when the sun was about to go down.

D2 November 14 (Saturday) Xiapu

There are two itineraries this morning. One is to shoot the sunrise in Beidou; the other is to shoot the Ewan mangrove forest. Get up at 4:30 in the morning and leave at 5:00 to Beidou Beach to shoot the sunrise. It takes about half an hour by car. It's easy to set up a plane when arriving early and not many people.

In the afternoon, we went to Xiaohao Beach, one of the most famous Xiapu Beach, to take pictures of the beach under the backlight.

There are also two shooting spots in the morning, one is the sunrise of Yantian fishing rafts; the other is the Nanwan beach and the colorful purse seine. Because I had to get up early to shoot the sunrise, I still got up at 4:30 and left at 5:00. It was so hard.

In the afternoon, I went to Yangjiaxi to shoot the tile kiln hanging net.

D5 November 17 (Tuesday) Xiapu-Shantou

Today is the last day of the trip to Xiapu. There is still half a day in the morning. We have to go to two points: shooting the sunrise at Beiqi Beach and shooting the S Bay at Jiangsha. Beiqi Beach is a popular attraction here, and many tour groups will arrange to come here to watch the sunrise. We arranged our departure time earlier, getting up at 4 o'clock and leaving at 4:30. Our team was the first to arrive at the small observation deck. As soon as everyone set up their seats, other photography enthusiasts and tourists arrived one after another. Many places in the front were crowded with people.

After returning to the county for dinner and rest for a while at noon, I went to Xiapu High-speed Railway Station at 1:30 p.m., took the bullet train at around 2:00 p.m. to Chaoshan Station and transfer to Shantou Station. I successfully returned home at 8 o'clock in the evening, completing an efficient, orderly and fruitful five-day journey to "Take Photos in Xiapu".

tips

1. Xiapu beach photography is good most of the year, but April and May and September, October and November are the best. June, July and August are hot and often affected by typhoons.

2. When we go at this time, we should say that the climate and weather are good. The temperature is between 17 degrees and 25 degrees, so it is relatively comfortable to be neither cold nor hot.

3. The scenery of most tidal flats needs to be reflected by the colorful and ever-changing glow to be interesting and suitable for taking pictures, so the weather conditions are very important.

4. The scenery of Xiapu mudflats presents a very different picture due to the influence of the tides. When the sea is in high tide, the brilliance and charm of the mudflats cannot be felt, and the rising and falling times of the tide are different every day. The itinerary needs to be reasonably arranged in advance based on changes in weather and tides.

5. If you are just sightseeing, you can walk around or join a tour group; if you want to take photos, you'd better ask people in the industry to form a group to lead a team or join a special photo group.

6. Most of the current Xiapu beach photography uses freehand brushwork. If you join a special photography team, in addition to being scientific and reasonable in terms of shooting time and route arrangements, many scenes will also arrange fishermen's work, boats and other models, which will make the finishing touch on the picture.

7. Xiapu mudflats are distributed throughout the southeast, northwest and very scattered in the county. It is about half an hour's drive away from the nearby one, and more than an hour's drive away from the far one.

8. Xiapu's social and economic development has been very good in recent years. Rural roads have been built in all directions, and the road conditions to various shooting points are very good. If you drive yourself, ordinary small cars will work.

9. Many of the shooting sites we visited this time are not yet official attractions, and they are not easy to reach without people familiar with the local conditions and road conditions leading the way.

10. It's very hard to go out early and return late to shoot the sunrise and sunset every day. You need to be mentally prepared.
