Ferries, sunrise lookouts and coastal theme shows—here's how to snag the right QR without getting sunk by sea fog or holiday crowds.
1 Overview
•
Real-name tickets are standard for Liugong Island (ferry + island entry), Chengshantou Scenic Area (sunrise point) and large parks like Huaxia City.
•
Mobile-first. Most sales run via WeChat/Alipay mini-programs; foreign numbers are generally accepted, and many platforms email the QR as backup.
•
Weather rules. Sea fog and wind can pause Liugong ferries and cliff boardwalks—watch morning advisories on the day.
2 Pre-Booking Essentials
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Passport scan | Needed for all real-name QRs (each adult must use their own ID). |
| Mobile number | Mainland SIM helps with SMS, but foreign numbers or email work for most attractions. |
| Wallets | WeChat/Alipay with foreign card after KYC (passport + selfie). |
| Sea-condition check | Ferry & coastal alerts post ~07:00—have a land-plan backup on fog days. |

4 Booking Windows & Platforms
•
Liugong Island — Pick specific ferry times; last return often around late afternoon in shoulder season—don't miss it. Museum timed tickets are separate but free.
•
Chengshantou — Best for sunrise (clear-sky days); some boardwalks close in high winds—staff will scan you into alternative lookouts.
•
Huaxia City — Theatre showtimes anchor the day; line up your park entry to start ~60–90 min before curtain.
•
Wildlife Park — Free shuttle runs from the main gate to interior habitats at intervals; feeding times cluster at late morning.
5 Payment Methods
| Method | Notes |
|---|---|
| WeChat / Alipay | Preferred; add Visa/Mastercard after wallet KYC. |
| Credit-card gateway | Patchy—mostly for ferry bundles; carry a wallet fallback. |
| Cash | Useful for lockers, small kiosks and beach services (umbrellas, showers). |
6 Cancellations & Refunds
•
Standard rule of thumb: Full refund ≥ 24 h before entry • 50 % 4–24 h • No refund < 4 h.
•
Weather waivers apply when ferries pause or cliffs close—platforms usually offer date changes without penalty.
7 Pro Tips
1
Sea-fog buffer. Book Liugong after 09:30 in spring when morning fog is common; earlier boats risk delays.
2
Sunrise math. For Chengshantou, arrive 45–60 min before sunrise to clear parking + gate; bring a wind shell even in July.
3
Two-QR day. Pair Liugong (morning) with Huaxia City (late-afternoon show) to avoid downtown traffic waves.
4
Museum slots. Even with an island ticket, reserve Jiawu Museum separately—guards check timed QR at gallery doors.
5
Holiday hack. On Golden Week, buy round-trip ferry times together; returns can sell out midday.
Plan your coast day around ferries and sunrise—No Tourist Traps. No BS.
