Dashu Island

Dashu Island is situated in the central part of the Wanshan Archipelago, spanning an area of 6.23 square kilometers. The island enjoys a serene environment, fresh air, azure waters, and strikingly rugged rocky shores, along with lush vegetation and vibrant birdlife and floral scents. Its beaches feature fine, soft sand paired with golden shores, pristine blue waters, and tall coconut trees along the coast, earning it the reputation of a “Mini Hainan Island.” One side of the island remains calm and wave-free, while the other is battered by fierce waves. There is only one fisherman’s family living on the island who serves as its caretaker.
The water around the edges of Dashu Island is crystal clear, and the sand grains are fine and soft—stepping on it feels like walking on flour. The sea is very shallow; walking from the shore into the water, it only reaches waist height after more than 50 meters (for someone approximately 165 cm tall). When the sun sets and the tide recedes, sailboats drift further and further away… creating yet another breathtaking scene of a perfect sunset.
