⚠️

⚠️ Pitfall Tips

Save money, time & hassle
Ask seafood prices first
Always confirm how seafood is priced before ordering—live catches are sold by weight; it's richest yet priciest in Sept–Oct.
Getting around Binhai Road
Weekend driving brings traffic and scarce parking—take the city sightseeing bus or taxi between stops instead.
Sun and sea fog in summer
UV is strong by the sea—bring sunscreen and a hat; morning sea fog is common in summer, so shoot long views in the afternoon.
Stick to licensed taxis
Near the station and ferry terminal, touts approach you—use licensed taxis or ride-hailing and make sure the meter runs.
