Sanjiao island

Sanjiao is a small paradise island in the east end of Daya Bay, China. It is a great spot both for swimming, as well as for hiking. Picturesque cliffs look quite like Seychelles. In addition, sea water is usually calm without waves on the shallows. The place is not wide known. So there are just a few tourists by the Chinese standards. Shore and seabed: sand, rocks. [edit]
