Life on Huaxiao Island was really comfortable enough. I didn't wake up until 9 o'clock, and the sun was shining on my buttocks. When we went downstairs to eat, my aunt told us that the rule was that the meal should be served at 8 o'clock, and there would be no food if it exceeded the time. However, we didn't get up for a long time and were waiting there. We finished eating with guilt.

Compared with the fog of the previous day, today's weather is simply not too good. It is sunny and cloudless. We are going to go out by boat. The whole trip will basically take about an hour, so we go out at 10 o'clock and come back at 11 o'clock, instead of starting lunch at 12 o'clock. I think everyone will find it very interesting to live.

The port is full of fishing boats of all sizes, and many of them are covered with Chinese flags. For them, this may not only be a patriotic sentiment, but also a guarantee for safety at sea.


Because of limited time and the high wind and waves, fishing at sea is not as far as we thought. It is only 500- 1,000 meters away from the port. It is docked in a rocky sea area. The fishermen gave us a live performance on how to salvage it.

The hemp rope the size of a finger was pulled up along the roller. Each cage was filled with caught objects. They might be close to the sea and did not reach the deep sea, so they were basically small fish and shrimps. However, judging from the skillful skills of the fishermen, the fish they had spent over the past few decades had not been caught in vain.

These small fish, shrimp, and crabs that were fought became our lunch. Among them, there were still a lot of shellfish. After the fishing ended, it was time for us to go fishing in the sea. Each person would have a fishing line and directly throw it into the sea, saving even the fishing rod.

Everyone found a corner and quietly waited for the fish to take the bait. It was probably related to their fishing experience. Some people could catch many fish in a short time, while some people never caught a single fish.

The young ladies who were traveling with them kept catching these stupid and cute fish. They were so small that they didn't even feel enough to eat. They probably had more offshore, so many people caught this kind of fish.

Because of the strong winds and waves, after the fishing introduction, I did not continue playing on the boat and sailed straight back. Most of the small houses around the port were relatively primitive on the island. With khaki walls and green flowers and plants, they looked very primitive. Ecological.


All the food harvested from fishing will be collected directly at the port and put into foam boxes, and then taken directly back to the street by tricycle for tourists or villagers to buy. This is probably the freshest seafood in the country.

At noon, we will continue to return to our small house by the sea for dinner. In the cool and pleasant summer, taking a lazy nap is more satisfying than ever.

At 3 p.m., take a battery car from the visitor center to Huaniao Island's most famous attraction, Huaniao Island Lighthouse. The car winds up the mountains in about 20 minutes. You will pass a viewing platform in the middle and you can see rows of houses on the beach.

When you pass by the place rich in water and grass on the mountain, you will know why it is called Huawiao Island. Each flower has a world, and each bird has a paradise. It is crowded with flowers and plants and beautiful forests and ravines. Even in sunny weather, the mountains are still shrouded in clouds, like a fairyland.


When passing between the two valleys on the mountain, it was basically covered in fog, and only the road in front of you could be seen. The sea and houses at the foot of the mountain could not be seen.

This lighthouse was built in 1870 and has a history of more than 140 years. The overall cylindrical tower body is 17 meters high and is marked with two horizontal stripes with black top and white bottom. Whenever night comes, the xenon spotlight on the top of the tower will shoot around at a rotating speed of one week per minute, with a range of up to 22 nautical miles.

Different from South Bay, the other side of Huaniao Island is basically dominated by reefs. The winding coastline is full of flowers and plants and no beaches, and the sea breeze is much stronger than that of South Bay.


I originally wanted to take an aerial photo of the No. 1 lighthouse in the Far East, but the wind here was so strong that the drone was trembling even when it flew, and there was no way to take pictures at all. Therefore, I originally came to see the lighthouse, but there were only two photos taken from afar.

The scenery on the observation deck under the lighthouse is also quite good. Compared with other islands, Huaniao Island is more suitable for people who like original ecology and small freshness. There are no high-quality resort hotels here, nor are there any foreign islands. The sea water is the same as an island, but there is a down-to-earth life and a scenery that will not be destroyed or transformed.
