Sometimes, when I need to think of a better place, I remember these beaches on an almost deserted island in the Yellow Sea. You go past all the islands where tourists get off. Stay on the boat, and get off when no one else does. If the helmsman asks, “are you sure?” then you’re in the right place. Beware of truly man-eating sharks, and don’t leave without asking for a taste of seafood stew from the handful of inhabitants when you hike back to the pier.
