Wanli Tong Introduction
Wanlitong, adjacent to the sea, offers a stunning view where white waves cascade in rhythm with the wind and tides, all to visit the coral. Indeed, this place is beautiful, as one can easily discover the captivating underwater ecology along the coastal area. Due to the variations in tidal changes, Wanlitong boasts a beautiful intertidal ecological zone. It is considered beautiful because, after the tide recedes, the once-submerged coral stones are revealed. Walking carefully over the rock piles, one hopes to discover native organisms within the rock crevices and tidal pools. Who are the native organisms? Sea anemones, sand crabs, hermit crabs, the mantis shrimp, and colorful tropical fish can all be found here. It is not easy to spot them unless the tide goes out. However, the "primitive" landscape is what makes this ecology beautiful. If you happen to see these native inhabitants here, please remain quiet and do not disturb them, for only their presence allows Wanlitong to be called a beautiful beach. Wanlitong has been designated as a marine ecological protection area. As the sea deepens, the topographical landscape becomes varied, featuring many uniquely shaped independent reefs, stone caves, tunnels, and rocky hills. The geology here is truly magnificent; just look at the variety of organisms—clusters of aquatic plants sway freely with the currents, and there are countless types and shapes of coral, which are great friends to many underwater creatures! Schools of fish often frolic near the coral, and crabs and shellfish are also present. Clownfish and moray eels enjoy hiding in the crevices of the coral for protection, while starfish, sea cucumbers, and sea snails love to snuggle up to the coral. Numerous marine organisms choose to spawn in the coral reef area, continuing their lineage! It's truly surprising that the underwater world of Wanlitong is not only beautiful but also filled with such lively scenes.
