Gezhou island is located in Dongping Town, Yangdong County, about km away from Xingang. It is composed of big and small Gezhou islands. It is said that Tieguai Li, one of the eight immortals, passed by the Dongping sea. Feeling that the fishermen could not get fresh water, he immersed his beloved gourd in the sea. Later, gourd neck was submerged by sea water and became two isolated islands of gezhoushan.

Fishermen see the island's fresh water heat detoxification, mistakenly thought it was Ge Shui, called the island Gezhou, this name has been extended to this day. Now the brave Dongping people have built a 1000 meter wave Dam between the big and small Gezhou islands. Outside the dam, the sea water is as clear as a lake. Walking on the beach inside the dam, you can easily get colorful shells. Sitting on the Wanghai Pavilion on xiaogezhou Island, you can feel the free air full of water from the sea. The feeling of comfort is no less comfortable than walking into an air-conditioned room. Standing on the top of the big Gezhou Island, you can see the vast sea and sky. After a rainy day, you can see a small sail mountain on the sea in the southwest, just like a lonely sail coming from the sky. This is one of the new eight sceneries in Yangjiang, "Gezhou sail shadow". This wonderful landscape was once chanted by a poet: "the day after tomorrow, you can see the lonely boat on the mountain of Gezhou; you can see the distant shadow in the blue sky, which makes you want to wear it. "On a sunny evening, people who are interested can also go to dagezhou island to enjoy another scenery, that is, standing on the top of the mountain to see the red sun slowly sliding down the beach. At this time, the feeling of" the desert is straight and the river is setting the yen "is similar to watching the sunrise on Mount Tai. Since the 1990s, the smart Dongping people have planned to open up a large-scale summer resort on Gezhou island. If the imagination can be turned into reality, a lianfujia Palace on the sea, a mirage of reality will show the world.
