Ningbo: Xiangshan Songlanshan Coastal Private Day Trip

Spend a calm, scenic day on the Xiangshan peninsula, one of the prettiest stretches of coast in eastern Zhejiang and the sailing venue of the 2022 Asian Games. Your English-speaking guide and private driver pick you up at your hotel and bring you to the Songlanshan coastal area, where the day is built entirely around sea air, soft sand, and easy walking.

Following the gentle Songlanshan greenway, you'll move at a leisurely pace past as many as five different sandy beaches, each with its own character. Along the way you can kick off your shoes and feel the soft sand underfoot, wander among sculpted coastal rocks and sea-shaped boulders, and pause wherever the views are best - here the green hills meet the blue East China Sea so closely that water and mountain seem to share the same color.

This is coastal sightseeing rather than a hike: your guide keeps things unhurried, with plenty of stops for photos, a paddle in the shallows, and simply taking in the offshore islands on the horizon. It suits all ages and anyone who loves the seaside without the effort of a strenuous trail.

A relaxed seafood-friendly lunch is included, and after a refreshing day by the water your private car returns you to your hotel. It's an authentic, easygoing taste of the Zhejiang coast - bright, breezy, and beautifully uncrowded.

A relaxed day on Ningbo's beautiful Xiangshan coast. Stroll the Songlanshan greenway, hop between five sandy beaches, and enjoy sea-meets-mountain views along the East China Sea.
