Beihai is rich in natural resources such as seaports, fresh water, land, tourism, marine products, minerals, oil and natural gas, especially in those of comprehensive subtropical resources.

The flat beach stretches to the horizon, the beach near the sea is brown; farther away the sea, whiter the sand is. The colors of the seawater transit from cream-colored, cyan, green to deep blue. The calm sea extends forth without boundary; the fishing boats float on the further sea, showing a strong atmosphere of life.
