【Overall】Nanwan Ocean Sports Park is part of the 5A national tourist attraction on Weizhou Island – ‘Nanwan Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area’. Not only does it offer pleasant scenery, but it has also been successively awarded honors such as Guangxi Sports Tourism Demonstration Base and Guangxi Sports Industry Demonstration Base in recent years. The yacht route within the park has been designated as a ‘Sports Tourism Quality Route’ by the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Sports Bureau and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Department of Culture and Tourism.
【Environment】Nanwan Ocean Sports Park is uniquely positioned on the picturesque south beach of Weizhou Island, embraced by Crocodile Mountain and Nanwan Street. Under their protection, the sea area where Nanwan Ocean Sports Park is located has become one of the few natural harbors on the island, with clear seawater and gentle waves, making it ideal for water entertainment activities. The beach inside the park has a gentle slope and fine, soft sand, which is regularly maintained by staff to ensure cleanliness and provide a comfortable experience for tourists. From the beach, you can also take in the sights of Piglet Hill and Setting Sun Island. In the autumn and winter seasons, as the sun sets near Piglet Hill, one can witness the rare spectacle of ‘porpoises playing with golden beads’. The sea area of Nanwan Ocean Sports Park is closely connected to the Crocodile Mountain Scenic Area, with crystal-clear seawater where you can see schools of fish swimming freely when you look down from the floating bridge within the park. The seawater is not only clear but also meets the strict requirements for mussel cultivation, which is why the sea area near the Crocodile Mountain side of the park is home to Weizhou Island’s pearl cultivation base. There is also a hidden niche spot within the park – the sea floating bridge, from which you can easily take photos with the four popular landmarks of Weizhou Island: Crocodile Mountain, Nanwan Street, Piglet Hill, and Setting Sun Island. Even if you are alone on the floating bridge, you can still capture stunning island photos.
【Activities】The marine activities at Nanwan Ocean Sports Park are primarily centered around yachting and sailing. Yachts offer a different perspective to explore the six scenes of Weizhou, allowing you to discover the human culture of Nanwan, the story of the South Pearl, volcanic geological culture, the spirit of the lighthouse, the geological wonders of Dripping Screen and Piglet Hill. This route has also been awarded the title of ‘Sports Tourism Quality Route’. Sailing can provide the thrill of riding the wind and waves, with the crew skillfully controlling the sails to tilt the boat almost parallel to the sea surface, offering a momentary sense of weightlessness and a sensory stimulation from the cool seawater, which can be described as a ‘sea roller coaster’. Sailing at sunset is particularly suitable for couples, friends, or families, setting off on a boat amidst the sea dyed by the rosy clouds, enjoying the sunset, and fully experiencing the pure beauty of Weizhou Island. Nanwan Ocean Sports Park’s private boat fishing activity provides fishing gear and bait for free, and you can also head directly to the sea area with dense fish schools under the guidance of an experienced fishing captain.
