Xiaowanshan Dao (Chinese: 小万山岛; lit. 'Lesser Ten-thousand Mountain'), or Xiaowanshan Island, is an island in the southwest Wanshan Archipelago, offshore of Guangdong in China. Xiaowanshan Dao is located in the west of Dawanshan Dao. The two islands are separated by about 1000 m. Xiaowanshan Dao has an area of about 4.35 km2.[1]

Geography

Xiaowanshan Dao has more sufficient freshwater than Dawanshan Dao. There are several small rivers on the island with water all year round.[2] Nanpingmen (南屏门) is located just offshore of Xiaowanshan Dao and can be served as a waterway for the harbor which is being planned.[3][4]
