See iconic west Shenzhen spots from the sea

The western part of Shenzhen boasts a 68-km coastal line, world-class container hub ports, comprehensive transport links and several natural islands. The transport links and container ports contribute solid support for the socio-economic development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA).

Departing from Shekou Cruise Homeport, the largest international cruise homeport in South China, you can take a short voyage on a cruiser to appreciate some iconic spots on the sea in west Shenzhen and beyond.

Tourists can spend two or three hours on the GBA No. 1 or GBA No. 2 sightseeing cruise ships to view the spots, including Shekou Container Terminals, Shenzhen Bay Bridge, Mawan Port, Nanhai 9 Offshore Drilling Rig, Mazhou Island, Dachan Island, Neilingding Island, the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link, Qianhai Bay and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge.
