Sanya 2-Day Tour, the real experience revealed!

🌴 Summer 2-day trip to Sanya, the real experience revealed!✨ Take advantage of this weekend and come to Sanya to escape the heat! The summer heat is unbearable, and many friends would like to come to the seaside to cool off. If your budget allows, I would definitely recommend Sanya. May to June is the off-peak season for tourism in Sanya, so take advantage of the smaller crowds and come here to experience the swaying coconut groves and the clear blue sea and sky. There are very mature commercial districts here, and the quality of the beaches is particularly good, making it the first choice for many people, whether for family trips or honeymoon vacations! ✈ Transportation I recommend flying to Haikou Meilan Airport. Compared to the small and dilapidated Phoenix Airport, Meilan Airport's new terminal is clean and virtually empty. Plus, after you land, you can choose to take the high-speed train directly to Sanya city center and Yalong Bay hotels. If you prefer to take the bus, search for 'bus code' on your phone in advance, and scan the code when you get on and off the bus. Alternatively, after landing, you can choose to take a taxi to Wanning, Lingshui, or Sanya. 🏨 Accommodation For friends with limited budgets, I recommend Sanya Bay and Dadonghai, where you can find good value for money, with accommodations starting at 300+. Sanya Bay is closer to the attractions, with Yemeng Gallery, Tianya Haijiao, Luhuitou Park, Nanshan Temple, and West Island all nearby. Dadonghai is located in the city center, surrounded by commercial areas, with shopping malls right next to the hotels. Of course, for those with a budget of 1k+, you can choose Haitang Bay, which is a concentration of luxury hotels. Especially for those with children, you must try it out; here, kids can play from morning till night without ever leaving the hotel to enjoy the Sanya atmosphere. 🌴 Travel Itinerary Planning Day 1: Luhuitou Park → Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone → Yemeng Gallery → Yiheng Night Market. Be sure to set off early and arrive at Luhuitou Park in about an hour by car. The park opens at 7:30 am with no admission fee and is a popular spot for taking photos, with beautiful scenes at every step. Right at the entrance is the Bali-style Gates of Heaven. The park has a sand pool, which is quite suitable for beachcombing. Then head to Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone, where you'll find the famous Nanshan Sea Goddess of Mercy, a landmark of Sanya that you must visit. Note that you can get free fortune-telling at Nanshan's guesthouse, which is of interest to many. Following this route, you'll play your way back to the city from the bay area, arriving at Yemeng Gallery just as the sun sets, which I think is a beautiful time to take photos and preserve the memories of this trip. Day 2: Wuzhizhou Island → Houhai Village → Luhuitou Park → Dadonghai/Xiaodonghai. When visiting Wuzhizhou Island, be mindful of the time; you can get on the island as early as 8 am. The ticket includes a round-trip boat fare, 138 yuan per person. Enter the scenic area by boat, and it takes about 20 minutes to arrive. Once off the boat, you'll see the happy tree branches, and further in are the love tree branches. Take the island tour bus, which costs 60 yuan without getting off, or 138 yuan with stops at 6 stations; I suggest the 60 yuan option is fine. Enjoy the scenery from the bus. From the dock of Wuzhizhou Island, it's a 10-minute walk to Houhai Village. Here you must try surfing, and to avoid being ripped off, it's best to book on your phone. The playtime is 1 hour. 👀 Food Recommendations 'Qingbu Liang' - When in Hainan, you must try the coconut milk Qingbu Liang, which can be found everywhere on the streets. Each place is a bit different, usually with watermelon, mango, green grapes, topped with plenty of coconut milk. 'Baoluo Fen' - There are many in the night market, served with yellow lantern chili sauce, which is unforgettable. 'Coconut Chicken' - This is a celebrity check-in spot. Before eating the chicken, drink a couple of bowls of soup, which is sweet and delicious. 'Seafood at the First Market' - Compared to the Third Market, there are more seafood stalls here with a wider variety, so it's recommended to take a walk around before bargaining. Boston lobsters are generally 110-120 yuan each, weighing about 1 jin. Small green dragons are 150 yuan for 2. Conch is 55 yuan per jin, sea urchins are 15 yuan for 2, and oysters are 6 yuan each. The processing fee is generally 15-20 yuan per jin, which you can refer to. ⚠ Avoidance Guide 1⃣ When traveling to Sanya, be sure to plan ahead. After all, the outdoor temperature in Sanya has already reached 35°C, so make sure to plan your trip in advance. Avoid 'commando-style travel'! 2⃣ Since there are many scattered attractions in Sanya, it is recommended to travel by region. Of course, for those going on the weekend, due to the tight schedule, I suggest visiting Yalong Bay, Tianya Town, West Island, and Wuzhizhou Island, where the beaches are very beautiful, suitable for those who like seaside cities. 3⃣ In May and June, some attractions in Sanya offer free admission, and tourists from other provinces can enjoy free access with just their plane tickets!🎫 4⃣ Ladies must be fully prepared for sun protection, as the sun in Sanya is very strong. Sun hats, sunglasses, sun-protective clothing, and spray, not one can be missed!
