In a corner of the South China Sea, Shimei Bay retains a stretch of unspoiled coastline. Groves of green sea almond trees line the shore, their dense canopies forming a continuous green belt. The sea deepens from pale blue to darker shades. Waves roll in as surfers ride them, their silhouettes rising and falling with the swell. Fine sand meets the sea and sky, while breaking waves lap against the rocky shore. The salt-laden breeze moves through the trees, carrying the scent of the sea and the roar of the waves. Rooted by the sea, the trees endure as the waves surge onward. Shimei Bay’s coastal beauty unfolds with every breath and every changing tide
