Upon arriving at Donggang Pier, many people will tell you where to catch the ferry. There are also announcements reminding passengers when the ferry is about to depart. Cabin staff will help you put your luggage away. Although the waves were a bit big, making it feel like a rollercoaster ride, the ferry didn't have a strong odor, so I didn't get seasick. However, I still highly recommend taking motion sickness medication. Shangmei is upstairs, clearly marked on the map, but! A major inconvenience is that there's no elevator at Xiaoliuqiu Pier. Larger pieces of luggage have to be dragged up the stairs or around a distant ramp! The owners of the motorcycle rental shop were very friendly. When the motorcycle couldn't fit all our luggage, they helped us carry it and led us to our accommodation. In short, this trip had a wonderful start!
It's a 6-minute walk from the pier, the prices are reasonable and the service is good. I would definitely choose this place again next time!
