Listen up! This hidden glass sea island in Hong Kong offers snorkeling + volcanic rock secret spots so stunning they take your breath away!

🌊 "Hong Kong's Maldives" jelly sea × 140 million-year-old volcanic rock × deserted island adventure** —— Complete one-day guide to Huangmaozhou⛰️ 🌟 A hidden gem in Hong Kong that will change your perception This "fake Okinawa secret spot" stamped by National Geographic hides Hong Kong's wildest glass sea! Tiffany blue jelly sea💎, an infinity pool formed by volcanic rocks🏊, a seabed full of sea urchins🦪. When snorkeling, schools of fish swim around you, and jumping into the Imperial Concubine Pool feels like falling into a natural swimming pool. Every snap looks like a "pretend Maldives" masterpiece! 🌍 Five soul-stirring must-play highlights 1️⃣ Glass Sea Snorkeling · Real-life Finding Nemo Dive into the jelly sea with 7-meter visibility, where schools of small fish and fluorescent blue-tailed fish are within reach! Coral reefs look like a spilled palette, and underwater photos come straight out of Finding Nemo📸 Hidden tip: attract fish to surround you and shoot from above for a "mermaid dance" perspective. 2️⃣ Imperial Concubine Pool Secret Spot · Volcanic Rock Natural Pool A shallow area enclosed by volcanic rocks forms a "sea sky pool" at high tide, reflecting Tiffany blue under sunlight—perfect for an Instagram-worthy shot in seconds! 3️⃣ 118 Lighthouse · God's Eye View Overlooking Mountains and Sea The 5-meter pure white lighthouse is the island's soul landmark! Climb to the top to overlook Hong Kong's sacred mountain, Nam She Tsim, and capture the epic "isolated island and blue sea" with drone shots. 4️⃣ Deserted Island Adventure · Real-life Temple Escape 70% undeveloped area with thrilling rock climbing between reefs! Pass through dark red volcanic rock faults and the "Devil's Hand" sea cave (⚠️ wear non-slip shoes + gloves). 5️⃣ Pier Diving · Relive Your Youthful Passion Leap from the old pier into the glass sea, and the splash moment feels like being a teenager again. 6️⃣ Paddleboard Adventure · Floating Sky Mirror Paddle through the seaweed maze; the water is so clear it feels like floating in the sky. Hidden play: lie on the board to sunbathe and enjoy the dual healing of 28℃ sunshine and 26℃ seawater. 🚤 One-day divine itinerary (photographer follow-along version) 08:30 Meet at Futian Port - University Station - direct to Huangshi Pier 10:00 Charter speedboat to the island (20 minutes of thrilling speedboat ride!
