Camping on Nance Island

Nance Island is located in the southernmost remote island of Dongping Street, Dongtou District, Wenzhou City. It is bordered by Beice Island to the north and Dongce Island to the east. It is surrounded by Siyu, Wuyutou, Maoyu Peak, Huakou and Touyu. There are more than a dozen islands, each with different sizes and characteristics. Of course, Nance Island has the most beautiful scenery. There is Nance Village on Nance Island, which is divided into northern and southern villages. Nancun is relatively prosperous and is inhabited by fishermen. There are two particularly eye-catching yellow buildings: a three-story building near the east is the village comprehensive office building, and a one-story building near the west is the village's public toilet; there is a dam railing corridor in the village. , there is an avenue platform and a large artificial white iron frame swing. The biggest highlight of Nance Island is that at low tide, a beautiful pebble beach emerges from the water, and the sunset is particularly beautiful. Beicun is a harbor with few houses, and compared to Nancun, which is shabby and uninhabited, taking pictures of Beicun from a distance gives people a sense of dilapidation and desolation. There is an electric tower at the highest point of Nance Island, less than 100 meters, located on the east side of Nance Island. There is a helicopter base on the westernmost side of the south island, which is as big as half a basketball court and can be used for camping. The fishermen on the island are also seasonal fishermen, and most of them are fishermen who rent local houses. They come to the island to rent houses and fish when the fishing season comes. After the fishing season, they return to their respective places of life. Nance Island is rich in aquatic resources and is rich in all kinds of seafood, such as moray eel, grouper, pomfret, white shrimp, etc., as well as various delicious shellfish, such as spicy snails, bergamot snails, etc.

We set off from Wenzhou at nine in the morning and arrived in Dongtou at half past ten. At noon we had dinner on the main island of Dongtou. After lunch, I took a short rest and then went to the pier to wait for the ship. I boarded the ship at about 12:40. The ship moved forward, and the white waves turned up and followed the ship. The ship sailed farther and farther, its tail holding the white waves became longer and longer. This was the second time the little guy took a ship, and he was still very excited. He smiled and held the national flag on the ship to celebrate the National Day. The weather was exceptionally clear that day, with blue sky, blue clouds, and bright sunshine. After about half an hour’s boat ride, we arrived at the Nance Island Pier. The weather is the hottest at this time. As soon as everyone got off the boat, they were exposed to the scorching sun and it was so hot that it was suffocating. Everyone was holding an umbrella or wearing a sun hat, and carrying their luggage, ready to head to the campsite. In order to choose a campsite with a lot of people, the team leader and several team members have gone to explore the road. The remaining teammates simply waited at the dock. Some team members were really bored with waiting, so they sat on the pier and looked around casually. We didn’t know when the leader would come back, so we were really anxious and walked towards the village to find a campsite.

I found a platform house in the village and wanted to pitch a tent on it. Later, I found that it was very inconvenient to move up and down, so I chose the platform below to pitch a tent with everyone else. The concrete floor is hot from the strong sunlight. When setting up a tent, you can obviously feel the heat rushing up from the cement floor, making you breathless. And when your body is exposed to the hot sun, your whole body feels hot and hot. Sweat, I feel like I'm dying of heat. After a long time of fussing and torture, the tent was finally set up. The little guy was sitting in the tent, finally protected from the sun, happily playing games on his mobile phone.

The tide began to ebb at around 3 o'clock, and at 4:50, a large pebble beach was exposed. Children and adults went to play on the pebble beach together. At this time, the sunset reflected the yellow sky in the west, the sea level was sparkling with golden light, the boat was wandering in the quiet sea, the team members were leisurely wading on the stone beach, the girl was blowing bubbles, and the little guy I threw the pebbles with great interest and threw them into the sea one after another. This sunset scene is so beautiful! You can't help but stop and feel the urge to take pictures. When my wife saw such a beautiful sunset, she posed for a photo and couldn’t wait to ask me to take one for her. ha! Of course I will not miss taking pictures of such a beautiful sunset. After the little guy finished throwing stones, he went to the swing field to play on the swings. At this time, the sunset, dusk, children, and swings are another beautiful sunset scene that will make you look forward to it.

The teammates used nets to fish in the sea and harvested a net of seafood fish, all of which were quite large. My teammates and I went to the coastline to pick up snails, and we also picked up a bag of snails. In the evening, having beer and snails with your family is a unique experience. The team members had a beer barbecue and karaoke in the evening. Singing, laughter, and noise suddenly spread throughout the night sky. It was really lively. After the excitement, we made our wishes and released the Kongming Lantern.

Nance Island starts at sunrise at 5:30. In order to watch the sunrise, I woke up around four o'clock in excitement. I didn't even put on my shoes, so I went up the mountain in slippers to watch the sunrise. There are two ways to go to the mountains to watch the sunrise. I don’t know which one to take. My traveling companion is named Xie Deren. He doesn’t know how to go either, so the two of us confusedly chose one to go to the helicopter. On the way to the base. When we went up, we found that there was no uphill road ahead, only a downhill road. It’s pitch black without street lights at night, and it’s impossible to find the road with headlights and flashlights alone. I tried cutting across the grass several times, but failed several times. Later, I had no choice but to go back. When I walked downstairs, I suddenly heard a fellow traveler say to me: "Are you going to watch the sunrise? " We responded with a "yes". At this time, I also received a message from a travel friend named N. She also said that she could not find the way up the mountain. We, the travel friends who were eager to watch the sunrise, gathered together like this. I, Xie Deren, N and her two friends, a total of five people, formed a sunrise team. Travel friend N said: "I heard from the villagers that the road I took just now can go directly to the top of the mountain. Let's just follow my road! " Finally, everyone discussed, Agreeing with N's suggestion, we continued on the road that N had not finished yet. In this way, we used headlamps and flashlights to illuminate our way up. We walked around a big mountain road for about half an hour and arrived near the top of the mountain. Due to the lush foliage on the top of the mountain, we couldn’t see the sunrise in the east, so we continued walking down the mountain road for a while until we saw the right view. We only stopped at Dongce Island in the east. At this time, it was already 5:40 in the morning, and the sky was dark. Because of the heavy clouds, the sun has not come out for a long time. So, we all sat on the stone stairs and lined up to wait for the sunrise. Later we went directly to the top to watch the sunrise from the electric tower. It was already six in the morning. But the clouds were still so heavy that the sunrise was completely in vain. We were unwilling to give in, so we took a few photos at the electricity tower, even if we had been there. Ha! At the highest point, we saw several rocks emerging from the water not far away. They formed small islands and formed an island group, which was quite interesting. There are wild fruits on the mountain. The kind we saw is common. It is brown-red in color. It is called stone fruit over there and hawthorn fruit in Mandarin. The candied haws we often eat is made from this fruit. I saw it looking up and looking ahead, quite majestic, and seemed to tell the intruder that it was the owner of the island.

The steep mountain top is difficult to climb up and even harder to get down. Look at Xie Deren, when he went down, he squatted and stepped on his feet, grasped the grass tightly with both hands, and went down carefully. It's daybreak, the mountain road is clear and it's much easier to walk. Unknowingly, we walked above Beicun and saw the helicopter base to the west. We shouted excitedly: "Oh! We saw the helicopter base!" To the north, we saw that the top of Beice Island was shrouded in thick clouds and fog. , it looks like Mount Fuji in Japan, it’s really beautiful.

Walking halfway up the mountain, I suddenly heard the cry of "咩咩". If I looked carefully, I saw a black goat on top of a flat-roofed house not far away. It was looking back at us, its eyes full of curiosity, seeming to say: "Hey! Why are you going up the mountain so early? " We continued walking down and saw a rock that looked like an eagle and a rabbit appearing in front of us, which made our eyes light up. Back at the foot of the mountain, it was already past 8 o'clock in the morning .

Go up the mountain to see the helicopter base. So, after breakfast, I took them up. After bypassing a reed road, we arrived at the helicopter base. When we arrived, several teammates were already there with their children. They played for a while and then went back, while we stayed to continue admiring the scenery. From the base, you can see the distant and vast sea, and the beautiful Bukchon Harbor is clearly visible.

We played on the mountain for about half an hour and then went back. It was still very early when we went down the mountain and returned to the camp. After the tide receded at ten o'clock, the pebble beach was exposed again, and the children excitedly rushed to the beach to wade in the water, play in the water and knock stones. After the low tide, beautiful colorful stones are also exposed. These colored stones are formed by the friction of countless high and low tides. They have smooth surfaces and bright colors.

At 10:40, we gathered at the pier and set off, ending our two-night and two-night camping experience on Nance Island.
The ship sets sail again, carrying a long tail of white waves. We watched the white waves and looked back at the natural scenery of Nance Island. We felt a little reluctant to leave. We couldn't help but wave goodbye to Nance Island. Everyone on the ship was smiling. It seemed that everyone had a great time camping. Teammate N stood on the bow of the boat, holding on to the railing and doing various poses to show off. He pretended to be diving and asked everyone not to stop him, which made everyone laugh. I also hurried over and took a photo to satisfy my curiosity. Before we knew it, we arrived at Shelter Bay. Suddenly I saw a seabird hovering over our ship, rising and falling for a long time and unable to leave. It seems to be looking for food, and it seems to be welcoming us back in triumph. Watching this seabird soaring in the sky, I felt as if I was hanging in the sky and soaring, I was very happy.
