藍灣海濱遊憩園區的金色沙灘綿延3公里，迄於福隆的黃金海岸，因此最棒的玩法就是租台單車，沿著平穩易騎的濱海自行車道，觀賞途中東北角特有的沙丘植物和波光嶙嶙的雙溪河，經過龍門吊橋一覽開闊視野後，就會到達目的地。園區內應有盡有，大小朋友最愛的海水浴場，其石英沙沙質柔軟細緻；還有生態步道、不定期的活動特展、烤肉區餐飲部、手作體驗及各式景觀藝術等，玩沙雕沙之外更有多種玩樂選擇。
你很難不注意到那座佇立於海灘旁的「鹽寮抗日紀念碑」，靜靜地訴說過往歷史。1895年乙未戰爭時，鹽寮為日軍登陸首站，大舉進據展開殖民統治史，並於此興建登陸紀念碑，臺灣光復後曾遭民眾搗毀，1975年則利用原有之碑座改建為現今的抗日紀念碑，紀錄這段抗日史事。
除了感受歷史情懷，不能錯過的還有這裡取之於自然的地景藝術，以黃金海岸結合沙雕、漂流木、鐵件、竹材及風鈴等自然元素，創作出一個個故事，也讓園區充滿原住民元素及濃濃的南洋風，而如想休憩解渴，也可到風格與眾不同的藍灣咖啡坐坐，在古色古香的彷閩式建築中啜飲咖啡及輕食，吹吹海風，享受這裡靜謐的一切。
Extending as far as 3 kilometers, the golden beach of Blue Bay Coastal Leisure Area can be reached easily by bicycle via a coastal path of the Golden Coast of Fulong. Along the path, visitors can appreciate special sand-dune plants and Shuangxi River. After passing Longmen Suspension Bridge, the bay is right in sight. The area has everything to offer - a beach loved by young and old with fine soft quartz sands, ecological trails, a BBQ zone, and a DIY classroom, among others. Activities are held from time to time, aside from all sorts of land art.
In fact, the wonderful land art here brings together sand works, driftwood, iron objects, bamboos, and wind chimes, rendering the site with an artistic indigenous and southeast Asian atmosphere. At Blue Bay Cafe, visitors can enjoy ocean breezes and some relaxing moments, while sipping soft drinks.
