It takes only 20 minutes by ferry from the seafront pier to reach Techeng Island, the closest island to Zhanjiang. Techeng Island is rich in natural resources and has more than 1,000 acres of mangrove forests under national key protection that are nearly 500 years old. It also boasts nearly 100 banyan trees and the intermittent distribution of tropical scrub, as well as white-sand beaches, red rocks, and other landscapes. In addition, hot springs and the traditional thatched villas here are also very distinctive. To build Zhanjiang’s brand image of International Ocean Art Island, Techeng Island will be renovated and upgraded in terms of ecology, culture, tourism, and agricultural infrastructure. 

湛江霞山特呈岛将打造艺术海岛新IP

从海滨船埠启程，搭乘轮渡，只需20分钟，就能到达这座离湛江市区最近的小岛——特呈岛。特呈岛当然资源丰富，有着1000多亩树龄近500年的国度重心保护红树林、近百棵参天古榕和断续踱步的热带灌丛以及白沙滩、红怪石等景不雅；此外，这里的温泉、传统风貌的茅草别墅也极具特质。为打造湛江海外海洋艺术岛的品牌形象，特呈岛将进行生态、文化、旅游和农业基础体式纠正晋升。
