Wanlitong Introduction
Wanlitong, neighboring the sea, features waves rolling in, their white caps accompanying the wind and tides, all for the purpose of visiting the coral. Indeed, this place is beautiful, and along the coastline, it's not difficult to discover the captivating underwater ecosystem here. Due to the changes in tidal range, Wanlitong boasts a beautiful intertidal ecosystem. It’s beautiful because, after the tides retreat, the once submerged coral stones become visible. Walking carefully over the rocky piles, one hopes to discover native organisms in the crevices of the rocks and in the tidal pools. Who are these natives? Sea anemones, sand crabs, hermit crabs, peacock mantis shrimp, and a variety of colorful tropical fish; it’s not easy to wait for them to appear if the tide doesn’t recede. However, the "primal" appearance of this beautiful ecosystem means that when you see these natives, please keep quiet and do not disturb them; only with their presence can Wanlitong be called a beautiful beach. Wanlitong has been designated as a marine ecological protection area. As you descend into the deeper waters, the terrain is richly varied, featuring many uniquely shaped independent reefs, stone holes, caves, arches, and rocky hills. The landform is magnificent; also, the appearance of countless organisms swaying freely with the sea currents is astonishing, with various types and shapes of corals that are indispensable friends of many marine species! Schools of fish often frolic around the coral, while crabs and shellfish are not absent. Clownfish and moray eels love to hide in the crevices of the coral for protection, and starfish, sea cucumbers, and conchs tend to cuddle with the corals. Moreover, countless marine organisms choose to spawn in the coral reef area to continue their lineage! It’s truly surprising that the underwater world of Wanlitong is not only beautiful but also filled with such lively scenes.
