The Qingzhou Coastal Recreation Area faces the Taiwan Strait and commands a vast expanse of sapphire-blue seascape. With gentle waves for company, the park is built around water-friendly leisure, offering rich land-and-sea facilities: a wooden boardwalk, gazebos, a children’s play zone, a camping ground, and a beach. It is the finest spot in the Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area for enjoying the waves and the view. The visitor center, right at the entrance, is the area’s most distinctive building—its silhouette resembles a bird about to soar. One glimpse of it lifts the spirit before you even step through the gate. Inside, the grounds feel like a park: dappled shade, fresh greenery, birdsong—so much so that you forget whether you are in the hills or by the sea. A fountain, a children’s playground, and a wading pool give youngsters plenty of room to run and splash. A wooden walkway, set in the front row for ocean views, curves like a wave, adding grace to function. Benches and shade shelters let you savor sea and breeze without breaking a sweat; the sound of the surf is pure refreshment. Ahead, a broad ribbon of clean sand begs you to dash across it. Some have already claimed the shore: beach-volleyball teams dig and dive—skills even sharper under the blazing sun—while others stage photo shoots, jumping as well as sitting and standing, thankful for soft Qingzhou sand. Kites rise on the steady on-shore wind, the area’s ever-reliable helper. Hailed as a “Hawaiian beach,” Qingzhou Coastal Recreation Area pairs turquoise water, blue sky, and immaculate sand with first-rate facilities, making it the perfect choice for swimming, sand-castle building, or simply letting your thoughts drift.
