Wanning Xiangshui Bay
Located in the northeastern part of Lingshui County, it is 18 kilometers from the county town and named after the spring water from Xiangshui Ridge that flows into the bay. Adjacent to Shimei Bay in Wanning, Xiangshui Bay boasts unique coastal scenery. As you step into Xiangshui Bay, the first things that catch your eye are the lush coconut groves and the seemingly endless silver beach. The lower parts of the beach lie flat like a carpet, while the higher areas rise into dunes, resembling a desert landscape. The shoreline is dotted with rugged rocks, and the seawater is crystal clear, with huge waves crashing against the shore, sending up sprays of sparkling water. Out at sea, fishing boats dot the horizon and seabirds glide playfully. The area features verdant mountains and emerald waters, with especially fresh air. At the foot of Tongling in Xiangshui Bay, there is the “Sky-Piercing Rock,” a “Stone Pavilion” for watching the sunrise, and a “Dragon King’s Throne” standing on the beach, said to be the exclusive “imperial seat” of the Dragon King. The northern end of Xiangshui Bay is Niu Ridge, which faces Fenjiazhou Island in the distance. Fenjiazhou resembles a crystal palace, with deep blue waters, vast stretches of massive rocks, and interconnected caves. Towering trees grow around the caves, providing dense shade, along with exotic flowers and plants that refresh the senses. Visiting this place feels like arriving in Penglai. Near Xiangshui Bay lies a very peculiar “Fairy Well,” just a few steps from the seashore, where sweet spring water gushes out from the crevices of the rocks. Even during droughts, the spring never dries up. A local saying among farmers goes: “Drink the water from the Fairy Well, and you’ll be fragrant for three years, fair-skinned for three years, and safe and peaceful for three years.” Currently, Xiangshui Bay is under accelerated development, with land already leveled and a 6-kilometer-long cement road constructed. A number of tourism projects are set to launch soon. Xiangshui Bay will welcome visitors from all over with its unique charm.
