Let’s go fishing 🎣
Road-tripping in Hainan is easy now as any overseas car license can be converted to a temporary driving license. So, driving around the island, there is an area called Wenchang. This area is quite spectacular as it also is home to an international space station.
Many people enjoy fishing from the beach and others are creative with a big polystyrene float and fishing nets. Using the float as a paddle board, its easy to go fishing for the sunset time!
The local fishermen supply the beach front restaurants with the catch of the day, fresh and delicious seafood!
🏖BAmbiance/Facilities: next to the beach, there are coconut stands where you can enjoy a cold coconut under the palm trees!

Asia's tallest lighthouse~~ Northernmost tip of Hainan Island~~ Mulan Head Lighthouse
🌈Attraction features: Asia's tallest lighthouse, northernmost tip of Hainan Island, nearby Baohu Cape offers views of blue tears and meteor showers in summer~~
🕐️Opening hours: 24 hours
🚗Transportation tips: Recommended to drive
💗Other tips:
To view the blue tears, it is generally in the early morning hours. The area is relatively primitive with no inns, so a camper might be more suitable. Although it is said to be in Wenchang, it is actually closer to Meilan District in Haikou. If you plan to drive there at night, it is recommended to book accommodation in Meilan rather than Wenchang.

Wenchang | Mulan Bay | Windmill Coast
On the way from Haikou to Wenchang, passing by Mulan Bay and the lighthouse, you can take a small path down to the seaside, where the water is very clear and blue. You can walk along the seaside rocks for a long time.
Passing by the Windmill Coast, there is a small path that turns down where you can drive along the beach. At P8, there was a feeling reminiscent of a miniature version of the White Cliffs.

Are you tired of Sanya and Haikou in Hainan? Wenchang Mulan Bay is worth a visit
🏝 When it comes to Hainan, everyone knows about the beaches in Haikou and Sanya, but actually, the entire island of Hainan, surrounded by the sea, has many attractions, such as Mulan Bay in Wenchang, which is a very beautiful spot.
We drove there from Haikou, and the normal driving time is about an hour. Traffic jams mainly occur on the bridge, but once off the bridge, traffic returns to normal.
🚉 Travel Tips:
🏖 You can take the coastal highway 🛤, the whole way is scenic. When you see a spot where you want to stop, just park the car on the side and go have fun, it's quite convenient. There are many beautiful views to enjoy along the way.
🌟 Highlights:
⛱️ The beach near the Mulan Bay Lighthouse is very clean, and the fishy smell of the sea is not very strong. The sand is fine and soft, and the sea water is also very clean without too many impurities, so everyone can feel at ease to go wading. It's photogenic no matter where you snap a picture.
👍 Most Recommended:
🚗 There is also the Car Zai Coffee ☕ by the seaside for those who drive around the island. They serve early C and late A, and having a cup of coffee facing the sea, spacing out for a while, feels quite pleasant!

Hainan Ten-Day Tour
First stop of the Hainan ten-day tour is Wenchang, where we first visit the popular Mulan Bay Windmill Coast. Mulan Bay is a coastline stretching over ten kilometers, starting from the northernmost point of Hainan Island, Mulan Head. Here, you can find Asia's first lighthouse, a windmill coast stretching over ten kilometers, with more than 30 giant windmills lined up along the coastline. The towering windmills perfectly blend with the soft coastline, forming a magnificent windmill matrix that stretches for several kilometers. The blue sky, the sea, and the white giant windmills create a beautiful beach scene, where modern industry and natural scenery perfectly blend, making one feel as if they are in a sci-fi world.
For lunch, we head to Dongjiao Coconut Grove for coconut milk chicken. Along the Jianhua Mountain coastline that stretches for ten miles, lush coconut groves form an endless forest belt, a natural green barrier along the coastline. Known as 'half of Hainan's coconuts are from Wenchang. Dongjiao Coconut Grove has the best scenery.' Coconut milk chicken, as the name suggests, is chicken stewed in coconut milk. The chicken soup is milky white, with oil floating on top, extremely pure! The chicken meat, without any additives, retains its original color, even a bit white. The chicken is tender and full of milk flavor, not too salty or bland, perfectly combining the essence of coconut milk and chicken, bringing out the original taste of the chicken! The oil in the soup is not salad oil, but a combination of coconut oil and chicken oil, which tastes particularly fragrant and fresh. According to customer needs, vegetables and vermicelli can be blanched in the soup. The price is not expensive, four people eat, each person spends more than forty yuan.
After the meal, we head to Tongguling. Tongguling is a famous mountain in Hainan, known as the 'first peak of the east of Qiong'. It seems to only have a main peak of 338 meters above sea level, but it is actually accompanied by 18 peaks of different sizes. The peaks compete for beauty, with layers of greenery. The picturesque Tongguling is an international ecological tourism area.
Take a sightseeing car to the end station and then climb up the stone steps to reach the open-view Moon-Viewing Platform, where you can take in the 'one river, two bays, thousand miles of green forest' landscape formed by Moon Bay, Qishui Bay, Baoling River, Baoling Port, and the mangrove wetland. On the granite sea-viewing promenade of the ancient city wall, you can let your mind fly. You can overlook the vast South China Sea and also closely observe the undulating mountains of Tongguling. The dense green vegetation under the sea-viewing promenade is China's only tropical evergreen rain dwarf forest ecosystem.
In the evening, we head to Stone Park to watch the rocket launch site from a distance and wait for the sunset. Stone Park is located in Longlou Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Province, with Tongguling as the center. It is the easternmost corner of Hainan. The park stretches along the sea for 2 kilometers. It is a stone that was uplifted from the earth's surface millions of years ago during the orogeny, and has been sculpted and weathered by the tide over the long years to form a marine erosion landform. There are variously shaped boulders here, some like dinosaurs, some like sea turtles, and some like ancient apes. There are also scattered granite and uniformly shaped pebbles. Standing on the boulder overlooking the sea in the afterglow of the setting sun, one can't help but feel the heroic spirit of Cao Cao's short song line watching the sea.
