May is approaching in a blink of an eye, and more than a month ago, this year’s blue tears have already come one after another.
from Mafengwo user @Athena 鱼鱼
Their appearance is mysterious, and in the "season limited" scenery, they are also extremely difficult. If you want to see the true appearance, you need not only mobility and experience, but also indispensable luck.

But as long as blue tears appear, it is certain to lock in hot searches in advance.

html In mid-March and mid-April, blue tears appeared on the seaside of Shenzhen and Pingtan Island in Fujian. It was as if at night, the sea here became a fluorescent blue galaxy!
A bright blue light shines on the sea at night. Clusters of blue light surge with the fluctuation of the sea water. It is so beautiful that it makes people feel a little unreal...

is beaten by the waves. , like stars falling from the sky into the sea, the long coastline turns into crystal blue.
The picture is quoted from @平tan网
The feet are stepping on the soft beach, and the blue fluorescence spreads out in sheets under the feet. This feeling of stepping on the stars is so dreamy.

In Pingtan, which has attracted many people to chase blue tears, the luminous organisms of this phenomenon are mainly : Noctiluca scintillans and sea firefly. The specific species of sea firefly is Cypridina dentata.
from Mafengwo user @ Buddhist Department of Southern Girl
Dinoflagellates and sea fireflies represented by Noctiluca contain luciferin and luciferase, which react when stimulated by waves, etc., to produce light blue light.

A must-have artifact for chasing tears
The appearance of blue tears requires certain conditions. When the following factors are met at the same time, the probability is highest:
- Every night after 7pm during the peak period from March to June ;
- A night when the temperature is between 21-30 degrees and the weather is clear;
- Southwest or northeasterly wind blows on the sea
- The best time to watch is when the tide is high
And once there is a big outbreak of blue tears on a certain day, it is very likely During this time the outbreak will continue.

In addition, the statement "blue tears = pollution" is actually biased.
quoted from Weibo netizen @李明LM17
In a popular science article about blue tears in Guoke, you can see the true situation about blue tears:
In fact, the effect of blue tears is only in clear water quality It will be so charming, and the density of Noctiluca will cause water pollution after it reaches a certain level.
But don’t be afraid, scientists will conduct real-time monitoring. As long as the density of Noctiluca in the water is appropriate, Noctiluca blue tears will still be a good partner for Pingtan tourism!
Therefore, the belief that the appearance of blue tears is due to water pollution actually reverses the causal relationship.

// The stone house in Beigang Village
Haizi once said that he wanted to build A house facing the sea with spring flowers blooming. Then these few words have become the dream and utopia of the world. If you want to realize it, you can probably come to Pingtan Island.
The stone houses here are scattered on the beach in an orderly manner along the mountains and the sea. The stone houses on the island are still well preserved.
Red bricks, bluestone strips, saddle-shaped wind and fire wall and gabled roof, typical of southern Fujian architecture.
from Mafengwo user @福微
Nowadays, many houses have been converted into cafes and B&Bs. You can spend an afternoon just leaning by the window, drinking coffee and listening to the singing of the sea.

If you drive by yourself, be sure not to miss the ring-island highway from Beigang to Yangtze River Ao Windmill Field.
from Mafengwo user @杨阳
This section of the road is along the coast, with the sun and sea breeze blowing on your face. Being in it is the sense of sight of animation, and the breath of freedom and happiness blows into your face.

The blue sky, white clouds, blue sea, and windmills make up the picture, just like being in a fairy tale! from Mafengwo user @Mercury玟 // Elephant Trunk Bay There is a beach deep into the sea on Pingtan Island. It winds into the sea like an elephant trunk, hence the name "Elephant Trunk Bay". from Mafengwo user @陈阿阿光 This is the most popular check-in spot in Pingtan. The fine and gentle beach, with clear blue sides, is often compared to the beautiful Madai. from Mafengwo user @陈阿阿光 The ebb and flow of the tide, the elephant trunk follows the impact of the waves, showing shapes of different sizes, flickering and appearing, which is very interesting. The coastline of Tannan Bay is not very long, but its sand is very fine and soft, which is different from the crowded Longfengtou Beach. Tannan Bay seems more local and energetic, and is a favorite of many backpackers and travel friends. from Mafengwo user @ winter melon On summer nights, this place is more like a nightclub. Here, there are bonfires and barbecues, enjoying the sea breeze and drinking wine. The shops by the beach often play music, making people's thoughts drift into the distance. from Mafengwo user @UFO During the fishing season, you can also see fishermen pulling their nets on the beach. from Mafengwo user @wenna // Xianrenjing Xianrenjing is a huge sea pit with an area of about 300 square meters and a depth of 20 to 30 meters. The bottom of the pit is eroded by sea water, and white waves roll among the rocks at the bottom of the pit. . from Mafengwo user @子飞鱼安知鱼 Xianrenjing is actually a small area in the East China Sea Wonderland Scenic Area. It is quite crowded when entering from the front. You can choose to enter from the Dongmeicun Village at the back. from Mafengwo user @子飞鱼安知鱼 Doesn’t it feel a bit like Uluwatu in Bali? Although Xianrenjing is beautiful, we still have to remind everyone that going down from the reef is a very dangerous behavior. A big wave may be life-threatening, so everyone must not take risks. from Mafengwo user @子飞鱼安知鱼 Shuangsail Stone is also called Banyang Shifan and Shipaiyang. This is a pair of the largest granite sea stacks in the country, because they are shaped like two huge sails, and when the tide goes out, the rocks at the bottom are exposed, like a huge disk holding the two sea stacks. from Mafengwo user @explorer is like a big ship setting sail, riding the wind and waves! Haha, but you must pay attention to the tide. If the tide rises high, there will be no such visual effect. from Mafengwo user @explorer // Tangyu Island Tangyu Island is located in the south of Pingtan Island. The seaweed produced here has long been famous at home and abroad as an old tribute. At the southernmost tip of the island, there is a miraculous work of heaven and earth - the sea. Altar god. from Mafengwo user @CHEN The crescent-shaped bay, the white beach, and in the distance is a giant gray-white naked stone man, who is actually the local god. from Mafengwo user @CHEN "The God of Heaven" is a masterpiece left behind after being eroded by sea wind and sea water for thousands of years. It is four times larger than the Leshan Giant Buddha. It is the largest natural granite spherical weathered shape in the world, and is the same as Shipai Ocean. It is called "Pingtan's two unique rocks". from Mafengwo user @CHEN // Jiangwei Village The seawall at the bottom of Jiangwei Village is connected to a huge island reef. It is very convenient to watch the sunrise here. from Mafengwo user @, Leeson Sometimes the clouds are too thick and I cannot see the sun rising from the sea level. But when it breaks free from the thick clouds, it still feels extremely warm and lucky. from Mafengwo user @CHEN stood on the island and looked back at Jiangwei Village. When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on Jiangwei, the originally cold scene in the lens suddenly became full of life. from Mafengwo user @CHEN The warm sunshine dispelled the cold, and the ordinary Jiangwei Village suddenly became a little more human. from Mafengwo user @CHEN The first day: Fuzhou/Fuqing-Tangyu Island from Mafengwo user @罗小凯 Warm reminder Stones are many people's "chasing" weapons. They are not only dangerous but also damage the "blue tears" landscape and surrounding environment. It is recommended that you spray it on the sea surface with a water gun, which can also produce light and shadow effects. from Mafengwo user @CHEN There is insufficient light at night. When enjoying the beautiful scenery, remember to ensure your own safety! ! Do not climb on the rocks to avoid slipping and injury, and do not go to remote waterside to splash, play or swim ~ from Mafengwo user @CHEN from Mafengwo user @Torn.
