With SUP board to Sanmen island, Shenzhen Dapeng Peninsula
25-26 july 2020 it was an amazing trip to the sea!
There were 17 people who wanted to go, so I found and book privat bus.

The price of the bus was divided equally. It cost 185 rmb per person for the round-trip bus. This non commercial event hosted by Russian Club Guangzhou.
Hotels near the beach all booked themselves.
25 july 2020 – 8.45 am we went from Guangzhou to Shenzhen to Dongchong beach 东冲海滩.
The way 200 km tooks 4,5 hours.
On the way, I conducted a quiz on knowledge of Guangzhou, 40 questions. Everyone got gifts-cards, and the winner of the quiz – beautiful magnets.
2 pm we arrived at the place.
Everyone checked into hotels and went to the sea!
Entrance to the beach costs 20 rmb.
I took my SUP board with me from Guangzhou, a lot of fruit, water and a dry bag, a life jacket.
After dinner at the hotel, I had lunch, inflated the SUP board and at 15.00 I came to the Dongchong beach.
Swam to the gorge from the sea

Chinese were sailing on SUP boards with dogs

In the evening there was a beautiful sunset.
I had dinner with mussel soup.
In the evening, i visited a local bar with surfers, fell asleep around 1 am.
.
On the second day, I got up at 6 am and walked around 2 hills.
The 1st photo (at the very top of the article) is a view from the mountain to Dongchong beach.
At 8 am we took a boat for 6x ppl for 400 rmb (round trip) to the island Sanmendao 三门岛.

Speed boat took us with a breeze for 15 minutes.
Entrance to the island cost extra 10 rmb per person. From the pier, the path to the beach took 12 minutes.
We rented tent on the beach.

There not a lot of people and water is perfect!
Everyone stayed on the beach and i inflated the SUP board in 10 minutes and went to explore the rocky shores.

The water is very clean!

Sea urchins and many fish live there.
Chinese tourist groups fishing from speed boats.

I found a very beautiful wild bay
And a small cave! The treasure was taken out before me.


At 1 pm on our call the boat took us back to Dongchong beach.
I had lunch at 3 pm and packed up.
At 16.50 we went back to Guangzhou.
We arrived around 21.20.
Very happy! A lot of emotions and new impressions!
Next time I go to Sanmendao island, I’ll take a SUP board around the island and spend the night in a tent!
But most likely it will be next year.
This year I will go to the sea to DoubleTree by Hilton Shanwei.
