Summer, the best season to observe black-tailed gulls, draws tourists from across the nation to the donkey-shaped island lying in the vast ocean, where they can enjoy bird-watching and the charm of blue skies and sea breezes.
A boat ride surrounding the island will allow eco-tourists to see the thousands of black-tailed gulls up close, offering them a fresh, fascinating travel experience.
Apart from rushing to take photos to record the majestic seasonal scenery, tourists are always spotted interacting intimately with the active black-tailed gulls.
Due to its supreme ecological conditions, Hailv Island has become a regular habitat for these lovely sea birds, which return there every year for reproduction and number more than 40,000 during the peak season.
