Practical information

Best travel time

The peak tourist season of Jintang Island is from June to October every year. In the archipelago, Taohua Island, Dongji, Putuo Mountain, Zhujiajian and Shengsi archipelago are all summer resorts. You can swim, watch the sea, blow the wind, go fishing and watch the sunrise. But pay attention to sun protection. In summer and autumn (June to September), there are thousands of hectares of waves on the sea, which make huge waves, soul stirring and roaring. At night is another kind of spectacle. Rows of waves glitter in the night, dazzling. It's a closed season. Seafood is more expensive than usual. If you specially come for seafood, you can consider going in autumn and winter (October February). At this time, shrimp is delicious, fish is fat, and there are many kinds of seafood.

Clothing

Jintang Island is warm in winter and cool in summer, the hottest in August and the coldest in January. In addition, at the end of spring (may) and the beginning of autumn (October to November), the temperature difference between morning and night is large, so you can take one more clothes to prevent cold. The first ten days of June to the first ten days of July is the plum rain season, and the next month (July and August) is also the typhoon prone season. At this time, tourists should pay close attention to the shipping schedule. In the middle of winter (December February), the wind is warm and the sun is warm, and ice and snow are rare. However, due to the strong sea breeze, we still need to pay attention to cold protection.

Customs and taboos

1. Fishermen in Zhoushan Island are especially afraid to say the word "turn" because they are afraid of capsizing their boats in the wind and waves. For example, if you eat half of the big fish in the Vegetable Bowl, you can't say "turn it over" but "row it over or turn it around". In summer, when we turn and sun the yellow croaker, cuttlefish, lobster and fish
