Nan’ao Island [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] features blue skies, vast ocean, luscious island sets, golden sand, white waves, and more than 1,400 different kinds of subtropical and tropical plants, as well as numerous species of animals.

Qing’ao Bay Tourist Resort is also located on the island, which has been bestowed with the title of “The Oriental Hawaii” by locals. Huanghua Mountain National Forest Park, called the “Most Natural Botanical Garden of the Sea in South China,” and the Wu Isles, considered a paradise for birds, can also be found. Finally, the island plays host to ancient wells, temples, and the commanding officer mansion from the South Song Dynasty.

Qing’ao Bay
As one of the two A level bathing beaches in the Guangdong Province
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], Qing’ao Bay stretches for 2,400 meters with low tides and soft sand. The golden sand and clear blue sea attract many visitors from different parts of the world every year. Today, many entertainment facilities are being built in the bay, for example, the Moon Bay Hotel, Zhongnanhai Entertainment Center, and many nightclubs.

Wells from the Song Dynasty (960 A.D.-1279 A.D.)
The wells from the Song Dynasty are the highlights of Nan’ao Island, including the Dragon Well [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], Tiger Well, and Horse Well. Legends goes that they were built under imperial order during the Southern Song Dynasty (1127 A.D.-1279 A.D.), which has a long history of more than 700 years. The water from the three wells is very sweet despite not being far removed from the sea, which visitors enjoy tasting during their visits.
