02Jinshan City Beach
Swap city streets for the shore
Enjoy the beach and coastal views at an easy pace. Swimming and activities depend on seasonal opening and on-site rules; simply spending time by the sea is a good plan too.
After arriving at Jinshanwei, continue by bus, taxi or another suitable connection to the beach entrance. Check your gate, return connection and train departure.
Allow around · 2–4 hours, plus return travel
BEFORE YOU GO
A little planning goes a long way.
Plan the return train too
Stopping patterns and operating days can differ and services may change. Check destination stops, return departures and ticketing before you leave; avoid relying on old timetables.
Beach access does not mean swimming is open
Coastal activities depend on season and weather. Check official beach access, swimming, ticket and event notices, and leave time for the connection back to the station.
