Shankou Mangrove Nature Reserve is one of the first five marine type reserves established in China under the approval of the State Council.

Mangroves are a group of unique trees and bushes which mostly occur within tropical and subtropical coastal areas. For this reason, mangrove trees are often referred to as “forests in the sea”. They are viviparous and the uniqueness of the propagules has not only aesthetic but also scientific appeal.

Mangroves in Yingluogang are among the well-developed mangroves in China and now under careful protection, covering an area of around 260 ha. The pure Rhyzophora stylosa forest there is uncommon, probably the largest patch of this species in China, and hence widely appreciated. With its thick tree crown and twisted and intricate stilt roots, the trees present a lovely scene.

During high tide, a boat tour in the mangrove forest will give you an unforgettable experience as singing birds fly around and lovely fishes swim under your boat. In the vicinity of the mangrove reserve is a dugong (category 1 protected animals in China) reserve.
