Preparation
Accommodation
It is recommended to stay in Dadonghai. Sanya has three bays: Dadonghai, Sanya Bay and Yalong Bay. The advantage of Dadonghai is that it is close to the city and is convenient for shopping, eating, traveling and entertainment. There are fireworks on the beach at night, making it quiet and economical.
Yalong Bay is the most beautiful bay. The water color is layered and the beach is whiter. You can also pick up shells. There are many sand crabs at night. However, the consumption of Yalong Bay Hotel is relatively the highest. It is far away from the city (more than 20 kilometers), making shopping, eating and traveling inconvenient. But you can still consider staying here for 1-2 nights. If MONEY allows, you can stay directly in Yalong Bay, or even consider staying in a thatched house on Wuzhizhou Island for one night.
If you are short of money, you can simply take out your tent and camp directly on the beach, but you will be charged a small camping fee.
Travel:
The scenery in all places in Sanya is not much different. It is recommended to only go to Jinmujiao and Wuzhizhou Island (this is not necessary for those who live in Yalong Bay, but not in Yalong Bay). Going to check it out).
1. Jinmujiao is located 20 kilometers southeast of Sanya City. The total distance from downtown Sanya to Jinmujiao is about 26 kilometers. It takes 40 minutes to drive and then walk directly to Jinmujiao. Jinmujiao is connected to Yulin Bay to the west and Yalong Bay to the east. It is located at the southernmost tip of Hainan Island and the southernmost tip of China’s continental shelf. In the past, when people mentioned Tianzhihaijiao, they always thought it was the "Tianyahaijiao" of Sanya. In fact, it is more accurate to say "Tianyahaijiao". "Jinmujiao" is the real end of the sky and the corner of the sea. The entire promontory of "Jinmu Cape" and the surrounding mountains are integrated into one. Because there are troops stationed here, it is a military restricted area. Except for the solitary lighthouse between the sea and the sky, it is inaccessible and picturesque. You can look at the water, sky, and vast mist. There are many beautiful scenery that are unknown to everyone.
Jinmujiao is a good place for fishing, picnicking, swimming and diving. Recommend Sanya Black Shark Outdoor. The price is 260 yuan/person (children are half price). 2. Wuzhizhou Island is 28 kilometers away from downtown Sanya and takes 40 minutes by car. However, since there is no ferry in the middle, you have to change to a ship to enter the island. Check the weather before going to Wuzhizhou Island. It is not possible to go to the island due to strong wind and waves. Wuzhizhou Island has clear sea water and white sandy beach, just like the beach in "Summer Tea". The most beautiful scenery of Wuzhizhou Island is at Lover's Bridge. Standing on the shore, you can see the coral reefs on the bottom of the shallow sea. The Sun View Rock on the island is worth a visit, where you can see the endless sea. The blue sky and the boundless sea are connected together, which is very spectacular.
There is a sightseeing bus on the island, which allows you to travel around the entire island (half of the distance is inaccessible on foot. 80 yuan/person, and a scenery VCD is also included).
The water sports on Wuzhizhou Island are very complete. The diving is very good, mainly shore diving and boat diving: the price is 380 or 580 yuan per time. The instructor will teach everyone the theoretical knowledge of diving before diving. It doesn't matter even if you don't know how to swim. When diving, the lifting and lowering are controlled by the instructor through the equipment.
The banana boat ride is for three people. You need to wear swimsuits otherwise you will get soaked and you will be thrown into the sea, but it is safe and someone will save you. It feels like a trip to the "Titanic". The price of motorboat is 150 yuan/10 minutes. The price of parasailing at sea is 280 yuan per time. A high-powered speedboat is used to pull up the parachute, and the parachute floats in the air by relying on the rapid progress of the speedboat. 3. Yalong Bay is 22 kilometers away from the city and takes about 45 minutes to drive. You don’t need to buy a ticket to enter Yalong Bay, you can just walk along the beach. The beach in Yalong Bay is just beautiful. When you come to Sanya, you don't go anywhere and just stay on this beach every day, and you won't suffer any loss. Swim, walk, sunbathe on a deck chair – be comfortable. When you see a hammock, just play with it, it’s very nice.
If you like walking, it is recommended to walk along the beach of Yalong Bay from the Yalong Bay Central Square to the Sheraton Hotel. When you come back, you can pass through the Wanhao Hotel and take the avenue. There are very few people here, and the tranquility and reverie feel like strolling in your own garden.
Food:
Everyone must remember that you should never eat at cheap food stalls that give out business cards or offer free shuttle service, without even hesitating. If you don’t believe it, haha, you will regret it
It is recommended to have breakfast by yourself or at KFC or in a hotel, lunch at random, and important dinner in the city.
An important activity during the trip to Sanya is eating seafood. There are two best places to eat seafood in Sanya. One is Dongjiao Coconut Grove in Dadonghai. Dongjiao Coconut Grove is very close to the city. It only takes ten minutes to drive there. There are also many free parking places. Dongjiao Coconut Grove is famous for its petty bourgeoisie atmosphere and various cooking techniques. , which is also relatively expensive.
Recommended: tiger fish + white tofu soup = extremely fresh. There are also freshly squeezed coconut milk and coconut milk rice which are delicious. Try to eat some shrimps, crabs and fish, and crab porridge is also great. The other one is the famous "Chunyuan Seafood Plaza". Chunyuan Seafood Plaza is located on the bank of the Sanya River. It is cheap and good quality. Please note that it is "Spring Garden", not "Chunyuan" or "Chunyuan". Chunyuan Seafood Plaza is a large greenhouse with 70 food stalls. After entering, you first go to the innermost stall to buy seafood and vegetables, and then come out and choose one of the many stalls to process it for you. The main way of eating is hot pot, and the seafood can also be simply steamed or stir-fried. The stall owner only charges corresponding processing fees (stir-fried/steamed processing fee 5 yuan per catty, hot pot 10 yuan for pot base, processing fee 2 yuan per catty) , is a more economical and affordable way to eat. The key to eating seafood is "freshness". The seafood here is all fresh and of course it tastes great.
There are a lot of shellfish, but the scallops are the most delicious. Although they are not very big, the meat is very thick. Among the fish, Su Mei is the most delicious, and Grouper Qingyi is also good. The abalone is also great and very cheap. You must try it. There is also a three-eyed crab, which is not big and the meat is very tender. You will know it is fresh as soon as you eat it. The local vegetables, kidney beans and five-pink wild vegetables are also good.
Remember, Chunyuan Seafood Plaza is 500 meters north of City Paradise, across the Sanya Bridge from the Dadonghai direction, and then go straight north on Yanxi Hexi Road. It is recommended to take bus 202 to Guoxi Hotel (Jixiang Street) and turn right along Jixiang Street for 500 meters. Mingrun and 168 across from Chunyuan Plaza are also good, and their business methods are very similar.
To eat in Yalong Bay, you can go to the Golden Palm Hotel. Here you can find all kinds of noodles for more than ten yuan, and there are also feasts for hundreds of yuan. At 6 o'clock in the evening, you can have a seafood barbecue buffet. Barbecue is also a major feature of Hainan. Many hotels have seafood buffet barbecues. Intime's is pretty good, with a lot of food. It's also very romantic to eat by the pool at night.
