Qingdao's thermometer soars, and its tourist season awakens, so the city enhances its vacation offerings by reinventing its cherished sea-bathing resorts. On June 1, the fully revamped NO 1 Bathing Beach premiered to an expectant public, boasting upgraded exterior design, advanced infrastructure, intensified safety measures, and innovative amenities designed to provide a sublime seaside retreat.

The newly renovated beach combines a modern architectural design with an expanded area spanning 3,000 square meters, including 1,500 meters of beautiful landscaping and sports corridors. The commercial changing rooms have also been enlarged to 800 square meters, dining facilities for up to 5,000 beach goers with 669 showers and 2,500 lockers. To enhance navigation, the beach features new directional signs, updated lifeguard towers, and retail kiosks conveniently located in four underground passages.

Prioritizing safety, the beach features three designated swimming zones monitored by 26 professional lifeguards. A remarkable 1,100 meters of shark nets provide added peace of mind for swimmers.

Embracing inclusivity, the bathing resort's customized changing facilities cater to diverse needs, offering an extensive selection of fully-enabled products. Adventure enthusiasts can relish watersports like sailing, paddleboarding, and surfing. At the same time, relaxation seekers can unwind at a leisure bar serving healthy snacks, artisanal coffee, and engaging entertainment against the captivating coastal backdrop.
