Hainan Lingshui | Come and see the sea and catch the sea~
【Scenic Spot Avoidance Guide】
1⃣️Nanwan Monkey Island: ¥115 +
The sea near Monkey Island is really clear and blue and super beautiful, but it's really unnecessary to go up to Monkey Island to see monkeys. The Monkey Island scenic area is very small, there is nothing to see, some animal performances are really... .But the cable car scenery is okay
2⃣️Daidai Island: ¥100 +
Actually, it's just a coast and there's nothing to play with, and the nearby free sea area is not as clear as the outside sea, it's not worth it
3⃣️Monkey Island Catching the Sea: You can spend a boat ticket to catch the sea, ¥38, the free coast catching the sea is still very good looking
4⃣️Egg House Fish Raft: Just look from a distance, there's nothing to play with and nothing to see, don't waste money, 1 yuan water bus is just like that, after getting off the boat you want to go up to the scenic area will charge you a lot of car fare
5⃣️Boundary Island: 120 +
There are many charging projects on the island, it's actually unnecessary to go to the island just to see the sea, the nearby sea area is very beautiful
_
【Recommended Guide】Free Scenic Spots
1⃣️Monkey Island Free Coast: The coast of Xincun Town is very beautiful to see the sunrise in the morning, the ferry to the nearby coast can be very good looking, you can also catch the sea to pick up seafood, just spend a boat ticket
2⃣️Clear Water Bay + R&F Bay: A whole coast next to each other, you can go to see the sea, avoid holidays, a great place to see the sunrise
3⃣️Red Horn Ridge: Overlooking the entire Lingshui sea view from a high point, it takes 30min to walk and the difficulty is not big
4⃣️Harbor Ridge: Good place to catch the sea and a lot of seafood, the sea view is also good, be sure to wear rubber shoes otherwise many shells can easily scratch
_
【Nearby Scenic Spots】
✅Wanning Shimei Bay: It's only 30min drive from Lingshui, it's very fast, you can go and see
✅Sun and Moon Bay: Good place for surfing, avoid major holidays, the Spring Festival is crowded to suffocation, but surfing is very suitable
_
【Eating and Living Suggestions】The sea view is very expensive during the tourist season, all starting from a thousand, it is recommended to live in the city where the transportation is also convenient and the price will be three times cheaper~
Please support my homepage more~ There are Hainan travel guides in my homepage, thank you for your company

yara_8698
I played in Wanning for 4 days, and sorted out overnight (avoid thunder)!|||
|||.😅Take a ✈︎plane to Haikou Meilan Airport (Wanning does not have an airport), you can transfer to a bus or take a taxi directly to the destination after getting off the plane✋🏻
😅You can take a 🚅train directly to Wanning Station/Shenzhou Station; if your travel arrangements span a large area, it is recommended to rent a car for self-driving, which is convenient and saves effort;
😅Be careful not to take a black car when you go out of the train station, there are many who charge exorbitant prices, which is outrageous!! Just take a taxi online, the price is transparent and clear
😅It's okay to come to Wanning for a budget trip, just can't go to the duty-free shop, you can just visit the scenic spots, take pictures at the beach/scenic spots📸
😅Sunscreen and mosquito repellent spray are essential, don't look at other places where it's snowing, the temperature here is relatively high all year round (compared to other provinces), you can still wear 👗short skirts and shorts by the sea, so be sure to do a good job of sun protection to prevent sunburn!
😅Wanning has many similar seaside scenic spots, such as Riyue Bay and Shimei Bay, you can choose one to go~ If you like quiet, choose Shimei Bay; if you like lively, choose Riyue Bay;
😅Babies with limited budgets can choose Riyue Bay Homestay, if you have a sufficient budget and high requirements for sleeping environment, it is recommended to choose to stay in Sheraton, Westin, Le Meridien and other hotels; Westin and Le Meridien have shared private beaches, 🌊the seawater is clean;
😅The Internet celebrity church is in the Legend Hotel in Riyue Bay, it is open to guests who are staying or have booked afternoon tea, you can book in advance☎
😅Xinglong Nanyang flavor is sometimes crowded, you need to queue up on the spot, you can make an appointment in advance on the public zong number, recommend chicken feet, durian shaved ice, coconut cake🥥
😅Crab Seafood Restaurant's secret golden crab, grilled Arctic shell is highly recommended, and the baby who has Taiqiong vinegar hot pot should try it, sour and spicy hin appetizer, it's my favorite taste~
😅Old Qiongzhou maple vanilla duck, the legendary soup rice is delicious, many people push it in the strategy; of course, if you can't eat heavy taste, you can try the farmer's coconut chicken, light and fresh, mainly for health~
😅You can go to Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden, mainly with five functional areas, you can see all kinds of strange plants~
😅Dongshanling Cultural Tourism Area, composed of eight scenic spots in Dongshan, has a very cultural heritage, but babies who are afraid of heights should be careful
😅Coconut Grove Avenue is half coconut grove and half sea🐋, self-driving is very comfortable, and you can also make big movies~
😅Phoenix Jiuli Bookstore opens the door to the sea, there is a kind of facing the sea, spring flowers blooming, of course, if you have time, order a cup of ☕coffee, pick up a favorite book to read is also very relaxing~
😅Qiaohai Ranch has a heavy poultry taste, sisters who can't stand it should be careful!!
😅Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse and Corona Sunset Bar🏄 are many people's check-in points, and they are also TV drama models~
😅Check carefully before departure to make sure you don't miss power banks, data cables, cameras, motion sickness medicine, stomach medicine, ID cards, student ID cards and other documents, electrical appliances, medicines, and sun protection equipment

New Year's Day walk around Riyue Bay in Hainan
The approach of summer, and the Wanning Riyue Bay and Sunac Sun Island you experienced seem to have their own characteristics.
The management and traffic conditions of Sun Island seem to need to be improved, but it can provide a beautiful hall and lawn as the background for taking pictures, which is a good choice for tourists who like to take pictures. The high room price and property fee may reflect its positioning and quality, but for tourists who pursue cost performance, your suggestion - parking in Riyue Bay and then renting an electric car back and forth - seems to be a more economical choice.
Riyue Bay, on the other hand, sounds like a more suitable place for relaxation, facing the sea, whether tasting coffee or taking pictures, can make people feel a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Moreover, there is a chance to experience the local culture, such as braiding, which undoubtedly adds to the fun of the trip.
As for dining, the tempo restaurant recommended to you, its taste can really rival the western restaurants in Beijing, then for food lovers, this is undoubtedly a destination not to be missed.

Surfing Capital of China (Riyue Bay)
When I mentioned Sanya for the summer, a friend recommended I check out Wanning. Riyue Bay boasts surf-able waves and a cool promenade lined with bars and restaurants overlooking the ocean. We spent 3 days here before heading to Sanya and I wish we had more time to enjoy the beaches. You could fly to Sanya and get a cab from Phoenix Int. airport or you could fly to Bo Ao airport and get a cab to Wanning (This was the cheaper option). Book a hotel near Riyue Bay or Shimei Bay. Cabs are easy and cheap. It rained quite a bit but the showers are short and pass very quickly. The people are wonderful and the food is delicious and reasonably priced. You can get surfing lessons or enjoy various extreme water sports while you’re there.

Monday was spent lazily wondering around Riyue Bay (日月湾), known as Sun and Moon Bay, a surfing hotspot of Hainan, China. There are countless trendy bars and restaurants along the coastline, with beautiful views of sea and mountains surrounding you. Although our relaxing afternoon ended early thanks to notorious typhoon-esque weather that Hainan is known for in July, it was totally worth the trip!

Wandering Minds !!
There are two ways you can listen to your mind, what it really wants to say; one in indoor by meditation 💆 and other at outdoor next to the sea 🌊 waves. Especially during the off season 📴 the feel is much more amazing and not much of crowd. This riyue bay area is good for surfing🏄. People from all around the world come here to catch the waves and get immersed in this indulgence. Also you can do other water sport activities like snorkeling 🤿, jet ski and para gliding 🪂. As this is also an offbeat destination, the price is quite less. Book your hotel with private beach. I saw the suggestions from trip.com and it turned out to be great🤩. #hainanlife #beachlife

Wanning Pitfall Diary: Real experiences tell you which attractions are worth visiting and which to avoid
👉 Wanning Travelogue | Real pitfall experiences, guiding you away from the 'pits' beneath the internet-famous filters 👈
👋 Hey, babes! Wanning has been all the rage lately, with all sorts of exquisite check-in strategies emerging online, and I, too, couldn't resist the temptation of those beautiful pictures, so I rushed over there 🚀. And the result? Cough cough, the lessons learned from spending real money, I'm sharing with you today without holding anything back, those who know, know, hold tight to your wallets, and follow me~💰💼
🍲 About Eating
1️⃣ Wanning Specialty Foods: emmm... To be honest, if you set your expectations too high, you might be disappointed 😔. The much-hyped Zaozao Vinegar Hotpot is not only mediocre in taste but also pricy, and the seafood size can't even compare with Haikou's 🦀️💸. Sigh, as a major coastal city, this shouldn't be the case 😔.
2️⃣ Xinglong Cuisine: This deserves applause 👏! Xinglong's cuisine saved my impression of Wanning's taste buds. The braised duck and curry beef brisket from Nonya Qiaowei Restaurant, as well as the colorful roasted buns, after one meal, I finally found the feeling of a holiday 🍽️😋.
3️⃣ Lingshui New Village Night Market: Strongly recommended! The mango stir-fried ice from Xiaoshuang is sweet to the core, the black sesame paste from Bifenggang is rich and fragrant, and the fried chicken egg pancake with condensed milk, take a first bite, wow~ love it 🥰🍨🥞.
🏄♀️ About Playing
1️⃣ Wanning Surfing: Beginners be cautious in Wanning, the waves are frighteningly big 😱! I suggest moving to Shenzhou Peninsula, where the waves are gentler and suitable for beginners. As for Riyue Bay? Check out the sea of people 🌊👥. Styling tips: Wear a hat or braid your hair into boxing braids, letting your hair down is neither safe nor photogenic 👒💇♀️.
2️⃣ Wanning Going Out to Sea: Compared to Sanya, Wanning offers much better value for money 💰. We chose a popular club, with a 298 yuan per person catamaran package, which includes snorkeling, fishing, and slides all in one 🚣♀️🎣🪂. Want to play on banana boats or jet skis? Add another 100 yuan, and all your wishes will be fulfilled! 🛶🏄♂️
❗️ Lessons Learned in Blood and Tears
1️⃣ Pay Attention to the Weather: Wanning on a rainy day is equivalent to a wasted trip 🌧️. Not only is the scenery discounted, but surfing and going out to sea are completely ruined 🚫. So, checking the weather forecast before traveling is more important than anything! ☀️🌈
2️⃣ Self-Driving is Better: The attractions in Wanning are scattered, taxis are hard to come by, and riding electric bikes has many safety hazards on difficult roads 🛣️🚗. Self-driving tours are free and worry-free 👍.
3️⃣ Bargain When Renting Electric Bikes: Don't be blinded by the cute Snoopy electric bikes, the rental price is inflated! Bargaining skills are particularly important at this moment 💪💰.
4️⃣ Prepare Seasickness Medicine for Going Out to Sea: The sea's bumpiness is no joke 🚢. Take medicine in advance, don't be like me, vomiting and wasting precious time 😢💊.

Are you ready for Wanning tourism? Local advice you'll regret not reading!
Dear friends, as a native of Wanning, I must give you some sincere advice! The tourism boom in Wanning is heating up, and I really can't help but expose those speechless pitfalls!
🔥🔥🔥First of all, the consumption at Riyue Bay is ridiculously high! A cup of coffee costs 45 yuan, a burger 98 yuan, it's simply daylight robbery! Even locals can't afford it, let alone you! Don't go there for a main meal, it's outrageously expensive and the taste is just average.
🚗🚗🚗Secondly, the road conditions near Riyue Bay's Coconut Palm Road are super congested, so narrow it's maddening! Trust me, taking a taxi or riding a small electric scooter is the wise choice. If you drive yourself, you'll be stuck in traffic doubting your life choices, and you might not even find a parking spot!
🍜🍜🍜Also, there are many delicious local snacks hidden in Xinglong Town, don't miss out! You can also buy cheap and tasty tropical fruits, and you can bargain if you buy more! Girls, don't rent those Snoopy electric cars, they have a heavy front and are too unfriendly for you! A regular small electric car costs about 60 yuan a day, and you can bargain! It's even cheaper to rent electric cars in Tianxin Village!
🌅🌅🌅After getting off at Riyue Bay in Shenzhou Peninsula, you have to walk another 2 kilometers? Don't worry, the villagers' sightseeing car is super convenient for a round trip at 20 yuan! Going around 5 pm is the best to avoid the scorching sun! The beach bar at the Westin Hotel is open to the public, the pink sand is stunningly beautiful, and you'll become an instant internet sensation with your photos!
🐮🐮🐮The air is super fresh at Qiaohai Ranch in the morning, and the small animals are full of vitality! Wear a plain-colored dress for excellent photo effects! But don't forget, after feeding the animals, don't litter plastic bags, protect the environment!
🚫🚫🚫The shops recommended by aunties and drivers on the roadside are 99% shills! For delicious food, go to reputable big restaurants, especially seafood restaurants! Lin Jie's Fragrant Seafood near Shimei Bay is explosively good, the salt and pepper mantis shrimp and green pepper crab are unforgettable!
🏄♀🏄♀🏄♀Want to surf? Find a regular professional surfing club and coach! Riyue Bay is suitable for intermediates, and Shimei Bay is more suitable for beginners! The best time for lessons is from 8-10 am or 4-6 pm to avoid sunburn!
📚📚📚Fenghuang Jiuli Book House, Bali Village, M1 Coffee Factory? Don't bother, you can finish visiting in half an hour, really not that interesting!
🌅🌅🌅Finally, don't forget to visit the same Corona Sunset Bar as Yi Mengling! Going around 5 pm is the best, the sunset view and the evening atmosphere are intoxicating, and the photos are incredibly beautiful!
Well, that's all the advice, be sure to keep it in mind! Wanning is waiting for you to explore, but don't forget to avoid these pitfalls!

Wanning Travel Guide: This One Article Is All You Need
Wanning Travel Guide🏝️ This one article is all you need.
Wanning is so suitable for young people to have fun, leaving Wanning feels even more lingering than a breakup.
day1️⃣ On the first day✈️ landed in Haikou, took the high-speed train to Shenzhou Station (Wanning has two high-speed train stations, Wanning Station and Shenzhou Station, Wanning Station is in the urban area, far from the attractions, it is recommended to choose Shenzhou Station.
After getting off the train, directly hail a car or there are drivers outside soliciting (the drivers are quite honest, they won't rip you off).
The place I stayed on the first day was at Sunac Riyue Bay, see pictures P2️⃣-4️⃣, the environment is really nice! All are sea-view rooms with balconies, and you can see the sea at a glance! It's an artificial peninsula, the facilities on the island are quite complete, it's just that the food is incredibly expensive! A bowl of noodles costs around fifty or sixty yuan.
In the afternoon, you can rent an electric scooter to go down the island to play, once you're off the island, you're on the Coconut Palm Road P5️⃣, with the sea on the right and some cafes on the left.
Checked in at Haimen Yefang P1️⃣, it's quite crowded and you have to queue up to take photos (the coconuts🥥 in Hainan are really hard to drink).
Walking and stopping on the beach opposite🏖️ P6️⃣-8️⃣, it was cloudy when I went, the sea wasn't that blue, it kind of affected my mood a bit.
In the evening, took a taxi to Xinglong Town to eat the very popular Nanyang flavor P9️⃣, it was quite good, we ordered a table for just over 200 yuan, none of them were disappointing, the fried rice noodles were inexplicably delicious hhh.
After dinner, strolled around the nearby fruit market P🔟, saw many fruits I've never seen before, the owners are very enthusiastic and down-to-earth, we walked around and were full from tasting even before buying anything, but many of the fruits were not ripe, the owners are all wholesalers.
Didn't return to Riyue Bay until 10:30 pm, it turns out the best part of Riyue Bay is at night!!! The bars on the street are full of young people drinking and clubbing P1️⃣1️⃣, super lively, and the beach is full of people setting off fireworks and singing, the atmosphere is also very good P1️⃣2️⃣-1️⃣3️⃣.
day2️⃣ At noon the next day went surfing at Riyue Bay again 🏄, it was the club owner who pulled us in when we were wandering around Riyue Bay on the first day, didn't expect it to be so worth it, 200 yuan for 1v2 coaching, two hours of instruction, board to play with at will, and clothes and shower provided with no other charges.
In the afternoon, took another taxi to Shenzhou Peninsula, Shenzhou Peninsula is more livable and quieter than Riyue Bay, also very suitable for renting electric scooters, the beach is less crowded at night, sitting on the beach and feeling the breeze is incredibly comfortable P1️⃣5️⃣-1️⃣7️⃣.
In the evening, had sour soup hotpot and coconut chicken P1️⃣8️⃣, the sour soup hotpot was totally to my taste! Absolutely loved it.
Every Qingbu Liang shop on Shenzhou Peninsula is delicious, totally satisfying, drank three bowls in one day, but didn't take a single photo.

Hainan Winter Travel Guide
Hello everyone👋🏻, this is xyiyiy~
I'm back from Wanning, and my mind is still full of sunshine, coconut groves, beaches, and the sea. It's so joyful to laze around by the seaside! Here's a summary of my personal travel experience for your reference. Wanning is really suitable for a slow-paced and leisurely visit!
1、✈️To visit Wanning, you can fly to either Sanya or Haikou. If you want to visit Sanya as well, you can fly there first, stay for a few days, then head to Wanning, and return from Haikou. This way, the flight tickets might be cheaper.
2、The weather in Wanning next week is still quite warm (it's colder these days, not recommended to come, but it will warm up later❗️❗️), with temperatures between 20°~26°. Prepare summer clothes, a light jacket, comfortable slippers, and flat shoes (you can bring a jacket too)🌟
3、🌊The seaside has strong waves, wind, and ultraviolet rays, so remember to keep warm and protect yourself from the sun! Bring a sun hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to take good sun protection measures.
4、When in Wanning, you must stay in a sea-view room at least once. Pushing open the window to see the blue sky and sea is really blissful! If you're on a budget, stay in a sea-view apartment; if you have more to spend, stay at the Sheraton, which is within walking distance to the beach.
5、Snacks you must try in Wanning: Qingbu Liang, Mianmian Ice, Shrimp Cakes, Fish Tea, Mango Rice Rolls, Lingshui Sour Powder, Coconut Rice Cakes, Coconut Wine, etc.🌟🌟🌟
6、Main meals you must try in Wanning: Crab Hut Seafood, Old Qiongzhou Maplewood Aromatic Duck, Tai Qiong Zao Vinegar Hot Pot, Farmer's Dongshan Goat & Coconut Chicken, Huananbao, etc.🌟🌟🌟
7、Visit the Men'er Coffee to experience the rainforest wild coffee, breathe in the fresh air with the sounds of insects and birds, enjoy a cup of coffee, and enjoy the good times of the holiday.
8、Go surfing at Riyue Bay🏄 and be a 'wave rider' for half a day. Hire a professional coach for basic training, and even beginners can easily get on the board to ride the waves.
9、Of course, island vacations come with sea outings!🚤 Take a speedboat out to sea, head to the beautiful and less crowded Jiajing Island, unlock deep diving photography, jet skiing, power surfing, and many other water activities. There's so much to do that you won't want to stop~
10、Renting a car and driving along the coastal road is really exhilarating. There are many coffee carts along the way where you can stop for photos.
11、In Shimei Bay, there's a popular bookstore--Phoenix Jiuli Book House, known as 'Hainan's most beautiful bookstore'. The bookstore is right by the sea, and stepping out the door, you're on the beach.
12、Not recommended❗️ to visit Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden and Bali Village, as the attractions are average. Qiaohai Ranch has a low grass coverage, and Yanzi Cave in Shanqin Bay is remote and hard to find, just a small cave by the sea.
13、Riyue Bay's main street faces the sea, with restaurants, cafes, bars, and surf shops all concentrated here. Surf and drink coffee during the day, and enjoy drinks and fireworks at night.
14、Tianxin Village is a small village behind Riyue Bay, with designer homestays, coffee shops, and restaurants. It's cheaper than the bay area, and you can rent a small electric scooter to explore.
15、The Fairy Pool waterfall is fun, with small waterfalls and pools, and it's a good place to cool off in the summer. However, do not jump into the water as there are many rocks below, which is dangerous. Coming out of Riyue Bay and taking the coastal road, there is an artificial Sunac Island on the left and right, and the seaside church is here! It's recommended to go before sunset after 5 pm for amazing photos📷

Hainan self-driving tour, don't miss this bay
🏖️In recent years,
Wanning, which was relatively niche,
has gradually come into the public eye
and become a new hotspot for travel in Hainan.
When you get to Wanning,
don't miss the most beautiful coastal road.
🏖️The road is closely connected to the coast,
on one side there are coconut breezes,
on the other, waves crashing against the shore.
The drone's aerial view is super beautiful.
If you don't have a drone,
it's also particularly easy to take great photos
on the rocks by the roadside.
🏖️The wind and waves here are a bit strong,
not very suitable for swimming,
so it has also become a great place for surfing.
On the nearby beach,
there are many surfing enthusiasts and beginners
fighting against the waves in the sea.
🏖️Public transportation here is inconvenient,
so renting a car will be much more convenient.
That's why during the day, you will also see colorful sports cars
and people taking wedding photos here.
But if you want fewer people,
you definitely want to get there early.
Getting up early, you can almost 'own' a stretch of beach.
