Is the North Island of Xisha Islands worth visiting?

If I can go to Xisha Islands once in my life, I have no regrets. It is only open to China people. So far, less than one in ten thousand people in China have set foot on this pure land. The North Island, also known as Changzhi, is surrounded by sand dikes, which are 3-4 meters above the ground. The flat land is formed by drying up into a lagoon, accounting for about half of the island. The island is overgrown with shrubs, houses, pools and temples for lonely souls to live in, and there is a lack of fresh water.

All Fukushima

All Fukushima is located on the northern edge of Yongle Atoll. The island is 360 meters long from east to west and 240 meters wide from north to south, with an area of 0.02 square kilometers and an altitude of about 1 meter. The island is about 3 nautical miles from Yagong Island. It is an uninhabited island, named for its rich aquatic products. The island is full of soft sea sand, located in the northeast of the reef plate. It is a yoke-shaped sandbar, and the Zhou Haishui is clear and transparent, so you can see the seabed with the naked eye.

Yagong island

The difference between Yagong Island and other sandbars in Xisha is that the whole island is composed of tiny and fragmentary coral reefs and shells, with a small amount of herbs growing, which is the seasonal habitat of seabirds, covering an area of more than 9,000 square meters. Fishermen's huts are connected with each other, arranged in a row and closely gathered in the central depression of the island. Yagong Island is located in Yongle Atoll, Xisha Islands. The water depth around the island is shallow, and the reefs are widely distributed, making it impossible for large and medium-sized ships to navigate. Only fishing boats or boats can enter and leave the waters near Yagong Island.

Shidao

Shidao is the highest island in the South China Sea, with the highest altitude of13m. The whole stone bird is nothing like Yongxing Island. There are no tall trees, only grass and thorns growing among rocks. Different from other islands in Xisha, it is not composed of coral firewood, but of reefs. The reefs here have different shapes and have high ornamental value. Blue water, white waves, moist sea breeze and surging waves constitute a natural picture of Nantian Island. Named after a bare rock. Yongxing Island and Qilianyu are both islands that ordinary people can reach.
