Weihai: The Perfect Seaside Cycling Experience

Cycling is one of the best ways to enjoy the ocean scenery. The spectacular view stretches along the 10-kilometer-long Huanhai Road Cycling Route from Crescent Bay to Grape Terrace. Both the longer and shorter versions of the route offer mesmerizing coastal scenery with marvelous waterside cliffs.

Visit Weihai's native islets to enrich your trip further. Countless seagulls and egrets migrate to Sea Donkey Island (its shape resembles a thin donkey lying on the sea) from April to August every year in a great communal gathering. Or head to Jiming Island for a peaceful retreat: with tranquil fishing docks and tall trees, it's a place where hearts can roam free.

If you prefer fine sand, Rushan Silver Beach would be just the place for you. Walking on sands as fine as silk, a stroll on Silver Beach is as romantic as it gets.
