With the most beautiful coastal road and the 'disappearing her' lighthouse by the sea
Life advice: You must go to Wanning in winter‼️
Wanning in December is the ceiling of domestic sea-viewing vacations
The weather is really too comfortable! No need to wear a down jacket to spend the winter, to see the winter sun and the sea, really very photogenic
📍Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse
Coconut grove coastal road lighthouse, heading towards that light, casually snap a shot is a beautiful masterpiece
🫶tips
1⃣️Navigation to Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse will directly reach the lighthouse parking lot, the parking lot is a bumpy dirt road, not yet perfect
2⃣️There are many people under the lighthouse, there is no need to take pictures under the lighthouse. Taking pictures from a distance at the lawn position when you just arrive at the lighthouse is more photogenic and has a more atmospheric feel
3⃣️Sitting on the wall far from the lighthouse, you can take pictures anywhere and you can't take other people, and you can take beautiful pictures of the small island opposite
📍Most beautiful road
Rent a Snoopy motorcycle, don't rush to take a leisurely ride along the beach, really chill, ride and shoot, it's too cozy
🫶tips
It is recommended to rent an electric car, riding on the coconut grove road to enjoy the sea breeze, taking pictures is really beautiful
In terms of eating, I basically ate all I wanted to eat
🦀I ate the secret golden crab from Xiehou Seafood Restaurant
🐚I ate grilled Arctic shellfish, very fresh...
🍲I ate Taiqiong's hundred-year-old sour vinegar hot pot, the sour and spicy pot base becomes more and more fresh as it cooks
🐓Farmer Dongshan Goat, Coconut Chicken
🦆Old Qiongzhou Maple Herb Duck
Rich duck pot with brush vegetables, delicious to burst! Very satisfied...
At the end of the sea, release all freedom

Come to Wanning, you must know about these hidden treasure scenic spots on the Shenzhou Peninsula.
Having been to so many places, Wanning always surprises me every time. What kind of treasure city is this 🌈?
If you want to relax, then you should come.
If you want to play something trendy, then you should come.
If you want to see the sea and enjoy a pastoral life, then you must come ❤️.
Since you're in Wanning, you should spend a day exploring the Shenzhou Peninsula. These are the must-visit attractions that you shouldn't miss!
Internet-famous lighthouse | ⭐
Recently, the internet-famous lighthouse has caused a stir, overshadowing the original beauty of this place. Although there may be inadequate management here, I still recommend taking a stroll.
Navigation address - "Shenzhou Peninsula Tourist Area - Lighthouse" 📌
After arrival, you can choose to take a sightseeing car for 20/person/one way, but I strongly recommend walking along the greenway and the seaside, taking a leisurely stroll to the lighthouse, which takes about 15 minutes.
Here are the azure sea 🌊 and lonely lighthouse, perfect for photography and aerial photography. On the coast of the Shenzhou Peninsula, you can also gaze at the lighthouse from afar.
It is recommended to go in the early morning or evening when there are fewer people. When the weather is good, you can also see the sunset 🌇.
Corona sunset | ⭐
Yi Mengling's recommended check-in spot 🌇 is located on the beach of Four Points by Sheraton Hotel.
There are two houses on the beach, pay attention to the one that is open and slightly to the east. This place is super picturesque, and there is a stunning sunset. It is strongly recommended to stay here in the afternoon and watch the sea turn into an orange sea, which is very romantic.
Around 4pm in the afternoon, there is also a bubble swimming pool next to the hotel~!
Bridge Sea Ranch | ⭐
The filming location of the TV drama "Summer Flower" is in a coastal city, and there is actually such a green treasure pasture. When you come to Wanning, not only should you see the sea, but this pasture is also worth a visit.
Location - 📖
It's an 8-minute drive to Corona Sunset 🚗 and a 15-minute drive to Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse, both in the same direction, so you can visit them together.
Cars can park on the roadside, and villagers' homes at the entrance have toilets 🚾 for 2 yuan per use.
Recommended check-in spot
The long plank road | harmonizes with the lonely trees | interacts with small animals such as ducks and water buffaloes | the starry sky house in front of the forest 🏠.
Wanning four days and three nights chill trip -
DAY1 Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse - Qiaohai Pasture - Watch the sunset at Corona Bar
DAY2 Yanzi Cave - Dahua Jiao
DAY3 Most Beautiful Road in Riyue Bay - Fenjiezhou Island
DAY4 Sea Experience - Jiajing Island/Dazhou Island - Half-day Tour + Riyue Bay Surfing Experience
Wanning, a perfect place to relax and chill 🌞

The sky and sea are so blue, no filter needed.
The movie "The Vanished" made this lighthouse famous, and now people come here to take photos all the time. I recommend driving a car so you can cool off a bit. If you ride an electric bike, you can take photos while you ride, but it's really hot, and there's a lot of dust and dirt on the road! The sea here is so blue! The sky is so blue! If you wear bright clothes, your photos will look great. There are a lot of fun things to do by the sea. I recommend the big yellow duck. It's fun for both kids and adults. It's exciting, but kids can handle it! The pink car isn't very exciting, it's just for taking photos.

The same lighthouse as in 'The Vanished', don't come
Don't come, I'm afraid you won't want to leave 😭
Taking photos here will definitely produce great shots～
The sea in Wanning doesn't need filters, it's really clear‼️
Surfing🏄🏻 and diving, it's too enjoyable 😭😭😭
🎫 Free admission 💰
📍 The address is at Shenzhou Peninsula, just follow the navigation!
📝 Tips to note:
🏃 The walking distance is about 800 meters, you can take photos along the way, the scenery is super beautiful! But be careful, the waves are bigger near the lighthouse, be careful not to get hit by the waves while taking photos! I was mercilessly splashed with seawater, salty and cold, it was speechless! 😫
🅿️ There is a free parking lot, just on the right side of the road, it's a wild parking lot, but there are signs, it's still easy to find!
📷 Here are some photo tips! 👇
1⃣️ Take photos along the seaside while walking, super photogenic! 📸
2⃣️ There are decorated shells on the road above, just beside the big words 'Shenzhou Peninsula'! 🐚
3⃣️ Near the lighthouse, you can sit on the edge, the feeling of the wind blowing your hair is great! 💃
4⃣️ At the entrance of the lighthouse, take a long shot, it has a very lonely and beautiful feeling! 📷
5⃣️ On the right side of the lighthouse, you can take photos standing or sitting, the person is small and the scenery is beautiful, super artistic! 🤳

After playing in Wanning for 3 days, I'm here to share some hard truths
Back from my second trip to Wanning, I want to give everyone some real feedback about Wanning💢
Firstly, Wanning's basic infrastructure and urban commercialization are not as developed as Sanya's, making it more budget-friendly, smaller, and with fewer attractions, which is more suitable for a slow-paced, laid-back vacation🏝️
Once you leave the train station, you can deeply feel the small-town vibe, but being by the sea really can cure all bad moods. For sisters preparing to go to Wanning, you can read this before deciding how to play🌊
❤️How to get to Wanning?
Wanning doesn't have an airport. You can take a high-speed train from Sanya Phoenix Airport/Haikou Meilan Airport/Qionghai Bo'ao Airport to 【Shenzhou Station】, which is closer to the various bay areas. The journey takes about 1h and costs 💰40+/person
🧡How to get around Wanning?
In Wanning, it's okay to take taxis or rent a car for local travel. I took taxis for my entire trip both times, which was quick and convenient. But make sure to call a taxi from a major platform for transparent pricing, and don't take unlicensed cabs!
🔹Small electric scooters can be used for short trips. It's pleasant to wander around the island and enjoy the sea breeze. Remember to bargain. There are also small 'bagga' cars and Snoopy ones that look nice but are expensive and not easy to ride, so you might just rent them for 1-2 hours for photos.
💛How to choose accommodation?
🔺For those on a low budget, such as students, choose Riyue Bay. There are many guesthouses, lots of people, and a lively atmosphere. There are many roadside specialty coffee shops, but the prices are a bit high (which is understandable for a tourist area, depending on your budget). There's fireworks and music at night, and a rich nightlife with young people drinking and clubbing. The hotel-style apartments on Sunac Artificial Island cost 200+/night during the off-season, but they are far from other attractions, and sometimes there's traffic congestion when leaving the island, with limited food options and no delivery service.
🔺For those pursuing hotel quality and with a sufficient budget, choose Shimei Bay or Shenzhou Peninsula. The sand is soft and the sea quality is good, more suitable for staying in a hotel. There are more dining options, fewer people, and it's quieter. Brands like Le Méridien, Westin, Sheraton, and Grand Hyatt are all located here.
💙What to note about attractions?
✔️The coconut palm road in Riyue Bay is beautiful, and many people rent convertibles to take photos here, but it's only a few hundred meters long and quite short. If you're not staying nearby or interested in taking photos, there's no need to make a special trip.
✔️The lighthouse on Shenzhou Peninsula is just an ordinary lighthouse that you can find by the sea. To get there, you have to walk about 2 kilometers on a dirt road. You can choose to ride the local villagers' tour car (💰20/person), rent an electric bike, or go directly to the Guanhai Pavilion for fun. It's best to go after 4 pm to avoid the scorching sun.
✔️The sunset bar at Sheraton, the hard bar at Westin, and the 216 bar at Riyue Bay are all places where you can drink, watch the sunset, and take photos. In fact, just choose one with the style you like.
✔️Qiaohai Ranch is indeed photogenic, but there's a smell of poultry manure, and it's exposed to the sun without any shade. Consider your needs before deciding to go.
✔️Surfing is a lot of fun. The waves at Riyue Bay are bigger, and those at Shenzhou Peninsula are smaller. Beginners should not go into the water alone, and it's best to choose 1V1/1V2 so that the instructor can always be with you. The services at the surf shops are all quite similar: sunblock mud, surf suits, surfboards, free photography/video, shuttle service, etc.
‼️Surfing is very physically demanding, so remember to eat something to replenish your energy before surfing. If you have long nails, remember to trim them short, and you cannot wear framed glasses. I am nearsighted and wore daily disposable contacts, which I threw away after surfing.

❣Travel suggestions
✨The main purpose of this trip is to have a laid-back vacation on the island. You can directly land in Haikou and then take a high-speed train for 1h to Wanning Shenzhou Station, or rent a car for a 2h drive around the island.
✨The best way to get around Wanning is to rent a car. It's convenient and comfortable. The coastal road is pleasant to drive on, and a regular car costs about 150 yuan/day.
✨Electric bikes are suitable for touring within the bay area. It's more cost-effective to rent a two-wheeler. Renting a three-wheeler for 1h for photos is enough. Remember to bargain.
✨The UV rays in Wanning are really strong. Equip yourself with sunglasses, sun-protective clothing, sun-protective masks, and umbrellas. Remember to reapply sunscreen.
✨About accommodation: If you have a sufficient budget, stay in Shimei Bay or Shenzhou Peninsula. If you're a student with a limited budget, consider Riyue Bay or Tianxin Village.
✨Three fun attractions in the three bay areas🔥
🌴Riyue Bay: The Rongchuang Church (any random shot is wallpaper-worthy), Riyue Bay Street (lots of internet-famous check-in spots), No Door Coffee, 216 Beach Bar.
🌴Shimei Bay: Sea-view Pavilion, HardBar pink bar, the most beautiful coastal road, M1 Coffee Factory (suitable for children).
🌴Shenzhou Peninsula: Qiaohai Ranch, Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse, Corona Sunset Bar (great for photos).
Places to avoid❌
🔘Qiaohai Ranch: You can visit if it's on the way, but there's no need to go there specifically. It's hot and sunny with no shade, and there's a smell of cow dung and duck droppings everywhere.
🔘Bali Village: You can take photos at the entrance if it's on the way. There's a lot of vegetation inside, and also a lot of mosquitoes. You'll get bitten and itchy.
🔘Phoenix Jiuli Bookstore: It's just an ordinary seaside bookstore. There's not much to see, and the photos are pretty average.
🔘Wanning is not suitable for group tours. It's more fun to travel freely and take photos.
🔘Make sure to go on a sunny day. The sea in the photos will be bluer and more beautiful.
🔘The beach bars in Wanning are all pretty much the same. They're expensive and the food is average. It's recommended to order a few good-looking drinks for photos.
🔘Don't get your hair braided in Riyue Bay. It costs over 100 yuan each time, which is enough to get your hair braided several times outside. Or you can buy your own hair and braid it.
🔘There are many restaurants in Shimei Bay and Xinglong Town. You can dine nearby.
🔘The coconuts at Haimen Coconut House cost 15 yuan each, which is slightly more expensive than outside. You can buy one or two for photos.
🔘Wear bright or light-colored clothes for photos. You can wear whatever you want in Wanning.
🔘Don't swim in unfamiliar waters. It's very dangerous to encounter undercurrents. Don't gamble with your life.
✅Recommended delicacies
✨Qiongzhou Zaopei Vinegar (Shenzhou Peninsula Store)
This is a century-old vinegar from Hainan, with a history of 500 years. It's a hot pot fermented with wine lees. Various seafood and Wenchang chicken are put into the pot, soaked in the sour and spicy flavor. It's appetizing and delicious, with a strong aroma of wine. It's a must-try delicacy in Sanya, affordable, fresh ingredients, and generous portions.
✨Coconut Chicken (Shenzhou Peninsula Store)
The deliciousness of a pot of chicken with three coconuts can only be understood by those who have tasted it. The fresh and sweet soup base becomes exceptionally delicious after boiling Hainan Wenchang chicken. The chicken meat is soft and chewy. A bite of chicken and a sip of soup, the sweetness lingers. Order a Hainan big turntable, and you can have all kinds of Hainan delicacies. It's a lot and affordable, the king of cost performance!!
