Coconut Breeze & Sea Rhythm: A 3-Day Surfing & Ancient Village Adventure in Wanning

🌊Day 1: Shimei Bay Blue Tears and Jiajing Island Secret Realm 📍Shimei Bay → Jiajing Island → Le Meridien Hotel Horizon Restaurant 🏖️ 9:00 AM Chasing the Light at Shimei Bay The Shimei Bay in the early morning is like an uncut sapphire. I walked barefoot on the white sand as fine as powdered sugar, and the waves rolled with silver-like sunlight, lapping at my ankles. Hidden trick: Rent a beach motorcycle (CNY 80/hr) and rush to the sea-viewing pavilion deep in the coconut grove to overlook the entire crescent-shaped bay. The drone captured the spectacle of the seawater gradually changing from emerald green to Tiffany blue! 🤿 2:00 PM Jiajing Island Transparent Boat Adventure Take a speedboat from Shimei Bay for 15 minutes to reach the deserted island. The visibility of the seawater here is as high as 20m! When snorkeling, I encountered groups of blue and yellow striped butterfly fish. The coach quietly handed me a starfish: "Touch it gently, it will shyly curl into a ball~" Must bring: mobile phone waterproof bag + coral-friendly sunscreen. I saw a warning sign prohibiting chemical sunscreens in the coral reef area. 🌌 7:30 PM Le Meridien Hotel Seaview Dinner Sitting by the window in the "Horizon Restaurant", the sunset glow outside the 270° glass curtain wall was like a fire. I highly recommend the CNY 398 seafood buffet—freshly opened coconut stewed Wenchang chicken is so delicious that it makes you want to swallow your tongue, and the Zao Po vinegar hot pot with Dongshan mutton has no muttony smell, only milky aroma. The lady at the next table exclaimed: "Look! There are blue tears on the beach!" We ran out frantically, stepping on patches of fluorescence barefoot, like dancing in the Milky Way. 🏄♀️Day 2: Riyue Bay Surfer Special Training and Xinglong Coffee Adventure 📍Riyue Bay Surfing → Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden → Nanyang Flavor Night Market 🌅 7:00 AM Surfer Early Class I rented a rainbow board at 216 Beach Bar (CNY 200/2 hrs). Coach A Jie said: "Bend your knees slightly, look at the waves, not your feet!" When I was slammed into the sea for the third time, I finally managed to stand up for 5 seconds! The after-effects of surfing are spells of "paddling-take off" in my head, and I was even simulating the action of pressing the board while drinking coconut juice. ☕ 1:00 PM Coffee Plantation Handmade The coffee experience class at Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden is amazing! The Robusta beans roasted by hand are full of burnt aroma, and the instructor demonstrates the "Old Dad Tea" Teh Tarik stunt—pouring tea from a tin can from a high altitude like golden threads into a cup, paired with pandan cake that is sweet but not greasy. Fun fact: The coffee trees here coexist with pepper vines, which are said to prevent insects. 🌙 8:00 PM Night Market Guide The night market in Xinglong Overseas Chinese Farm is like a small Southeast Asian expo: VND 5 for Vietnamese spring rolls with thin skin and fresh fillings, VND 15/cup for "Three-Color Teh Tarik" with condensed milk at the bottom, black tea in the middle, and foam on top. You have to shake it like a bartender before drinking. The most amazing thing is "green mango mixed with chili salt", which is so sour, spicy, and crunchy that your pupils dilate! 🌅Day 3: Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse and Ranch Healing 📍Shenzhou Peninsula → Qiaohai Ranch → Corona Sunset Bar 🗼 6:30 AM Lighthouse Watcher Before the tour group arrives, enjoy the Goblin-like scene alone! The red lighthouse is looming in the morning mist, and the waves on both sides of the stone embankment beat symmetrically. When running in a white dress, the sea breeze lifts the corners of the skirt, and my friend captures a divine photo of "going to travel through time in the next second". Avoid the pit: The embankment is wet and slippery and prone to falling into the water at noon when the tide is high. 🐄 11:00 AM New Zealand-Style Ranch The cattle herd at Qiaohai Ranch is not afraid of people at all! Buy fodder for CNY 10, and the brown and white cows will chase you for cuddles. Uncle the shepherd taught me to play the leaf flute, saying that this is an ancient Li ethnic group courtship method. Sitting on the lonely tree swing and watching the clouds roll, I suddenly understood the true meaning of "slow life". 🍹 6:00 PM Corona Sunset Ceremony The "golden half hour" of Corona Bar lives up to its reputation! Order a "Sunset Tequila" and watch the sunset cut the sea into amber and magenta gradient bands. When the DJ plays music, the waves become natural background music, and the surfing guy next door smiles and says: "Even the air here smells of freedom!" 🍜Local Aborigines' Private Food Red and Black List ✅ Must-Eat List Green pepper crab at Linjie Xiangwei Seafood in Shimei Bay, spicy with coconut fragrance Pho at PHOPLUS Vietnamese Noodle Shop in Riyue Bay, the mint leaves are freshly picked Curry fish balls at Huananbao in Xinglong, so chewy that they can be used to play table tennis ❌ Lightning Protection Guide The "sky-high Hele crab" near the scenic spot, make sure that the crab shell has the Big Dipper spots to be authentic The internet-famous coconut jelly in the Riyue Bay bar street is not as good as the CNY 3 freshly cut coconut sold by the old woman in the vegetable market 📌Super Practical Tips 1. Transportation Hacker It is most cost-effective to rent an electric car at Haikou Meilan Airport (CNY 150/day), and there are dense charging piles on the ring road The "Seaside Train" from Riyue Bay to Shimei Bay is a shuttle bus, free ride! 2. Photo Metaphysics Wear a solid color long dress at the Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse, and the silhouette shot against the sun at sunrise is absolutely beautiful The side backlight at 4pm at Qiaohai Ranch can dye the hair into gold threads 3. Surfing Tips Novices should choose Tianxin Village Surfing Shop in Riyue Bay, 1V3 teaching is safer Cut your nails short! My friend's manicure split and she cried and went ashore to repair it for CNY 200 4. Accommodation Easter Eggs The "Seaview Tent Room" at Westin Shimei Bay has a private beach when you open the curtains If · Zhai, a Nanyang-style B&B in Xinglong, the owner will take you to pick miracle fruit The most magical moment of this trip was when I met a sea turtle while snorkeling in Jiajing Island. It swam slowly over my head, and the sunlight penetrated the sea water and cast spots of light on the turtle shell. At that moment, I suddenly understood—the beauty of Wanning is never in the guide, but in the waves, on the tip of the tongue, and in every unexpected miracle.
