At the height of summer, you'll see bathers 20 deep at this pretty pebble beach, which often features in crazy crowds in China photos. It's not always like that though – even in spring you can enjoy clean, clear water and plenty of space in the adjacent park. Junks float just offshore in a deep bay, small broken islands dot the horizon, and loads of families come here for no other reason than to have fun.
Bus 5 leaves from Jiefang Lu (Â¥1, 20 to 30 minutes) and drops you off across from the beach.
