📝 Personal experience

Nanfang'ao Observation Deck, formerly known as "Zhao'an Observation Deck", is located at an altitude of about 140 meters and provides an excellent view. Standing on the viewing platform, you can overlook Nanfang'ao, Beifang'ao fishing ports, Neipi Beach, Doufu Cape, and Guishan Island in the distance.

There is free parking at the observation deck, and it takes about 1 minute to walk from the parking lot to the platform. The platform is open-air and has no shelter, so it is recommended to bring sunshades.

Whether it is the sunrise in the early morning, the blue sky and white clouds at noon, or the sunset in the evening, the Nanfang'ao Observation Deck is a great place to enjoy the sea view. In addition, at night, the port is lit up with lights, which adds a unique flavor.
