Dear Cathy,

Welcome to Daishan! Compared to other seasons, I think the best time to visit Daishan is in summer. Because it’s hot and sunny, we can swim in the sea. So it’s a good idea to bring your swimsuit. Also, it’s pleasant to play beach volleyball. But there are storms from time to time, so an umbrella is quite useful.

Best wishes!
