Last weekend I decided that I couldn't take the wait for a beach any longer. Beijing of course doesn't have a beach and the closest beach is a day trip away to Beidaihe or even Tang gu near Tianjin which isn't that feesable when you only have a weekend to spare. Therefore I looked into outdoor swimming pools/water parks in Beijing and I found the Crab Island which has it's own man made beach along with a few slides, food/drink kiosks, umbrellas, chairs and even a wave machine. My girlfriend managed to buy 4 tickets from taobao (2 of them for friends) for 45 RMB each, the price on the gate is 60 RMB. So off we went with two of our friends and we had a thoroughly enjoyable time except for the sun burn on my back which is just starting to peel today. Not pleasant. The lesson learnt from this trip is to use water-proof suncream!
