There are Chinese day tours from Shenyang and Panjin (right at the Railway Station's Square) to see the red beach.

• Red Beach Scenic Area (红海滩风景区 Hónghǎi Tānfēng Jǐngqū). This is a National Nature Reserve area covering 20 square kilometres. Rare birds can be found here. The site gets its name from the unusual colour of the beach seaweed which is bright red. A local delicasy is crabs. Most tours of the Red Beach will include a change to sample one of these crustations yourself.
  For advanced travellers who refuse to join tours, there are minibuses to Red Beach Resort at the front of Liaohe Youtian Sport Center 辽河油田体育馆 (add: No.110, Xinglongtai St). The bus departs daily at 07, 11, 15, 17:10 from the sport center, and returns from Red Beach Resort at 06, 08, 13, 16. The minibus costs ¥7 and takes around an hour. From the Red Beach Resort, tuktuk, taxi or minibus are required to reach the Red Beach, and bargaining is necessary. As of July 2015, the golf carts in the beach area are not running anymore, and visitors need to hire their own vehicle in the beach (tuktuk, taxi or minibus). (updated Jul 2015)
