After the May Day holiday, Wanning returns to a state of fewer people and beautiful scenery
As someone who travels to Hainan every year, I sincerely want to offer some advice to those who are planning to visit Wanning soon!!
1️⃣ Before traveling to Wanning, be sure to check the weather. Hainan is like spring all year round, and the weather and humidity are the most important factors that will directly affect your travel experience.
2️⃣ It is currently the off-season, and after May Day until the 7th, the prices for flights and hotels generally decrease, so book your tickets to Wanning in advance.
3️⃣ Wanning does not have an airport, so you can choose to land in Sanya or Haikou and then take a high-speed train directly to Wanning. It is recommended to arrive at Shenzhou Station, which is closer to the scenic area hotels.
4️⃣ The attractions in Wanning are scattered, and it is a very chill coastal city. It is recommended to visit one attraction per day to fully enhance your experience.
5️⃣ For accommodation, you can choose homestays in Riyue Bay or hotels in Shenzhou Peninsula/ Shimei Bay. Depending on your budget, Riyue Bay is more crowded and noisy, while the two bays' hotels are quieter and more suitable for a vacation.
6️⃣ Riyue Bay is a must-visit, a gathering place for handsome guys and beautiful girls. Recommended internet-famous spots: Haimen Coconut Grove, Grom Cafe, 216 Bar.
7️⃣ The nightlife in Riyue Bay is more suitable for young people. In the evening, you can go to Haimen Street, where many trendy men and women gather in small bars, and the seaside is also lively with many people taking their children to catch seafood.
8️⃣ The Sunac Chapel is particularly photogenic, the same church as in the TV series 'Summer Flowers', facing the garden and backed by the sea, with a very high photo success rate.
9️⃣ The evening in Shenzhou Peninsula is not to be missed. Corona Sunset Bar or the lighthouse are excellent spots for sunset photography, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Coconut Palm Road.
🔟 Qiaohai Ranch is a must-visit on a sunny day. With light-colored clothing and sufficient sunlight, you can take amazing photos in minutes!
1️⃣1️⃣ The Hard Bar in Shimei Bay is a must-visit. Ladies should prepare a set of pink outfits, which are really fitting for the scene and great for taking beautiful photos.
1️⃣2️⃣ Shanqin Bay should be visited during the high tide period from 2-4 pm. When the waves are big, whether at Swallow Cave or on the rocks, the photos turn out particularly well.
1️⃣3️⃣ The cost of living in Xinglong Town, Wanning, is really not high. If you want to try Hainanese snacks, be sure to take a stroll there. However, if you want to try a wider variety, it's best to go earlier, as they might be sold out by around 9 am.
1️⃣4️⃣ Some photogenic small shops
📍 Riyue Bay: Haimen Coconut Grove - 216 Beach Bar - Sunac Chapel
📍 Shenzhou Peninsula: Qiaohai Ranch - dedeco - Corona Sunset Bar
📍 Shimei Bay: Guanhai Pavilion - Hard Bar Pink Beach

For Wanning travel 1, you must go to see the most beautiful sunset lighthouse orange
sea
In Hainan, you will encounter many different sunsets. Each beach is uniquely beautiful. But if you go to Wanning
You must go to the Shenzhou Peninsula
To see this lighthouse stretching out of the beach
Especially from the aerial perspective
It's simply a paradise for drone enthusiasts
The lighthouse looks particularly charming under the backdrop of the orange sea 700
The specific location is in the Shenzhou Peninsula Taiyue Residence, which is currently under construction, so it's not very easy to walk, but you can also walk along the beach
It is recommended to go earlier in the afternoon, there will be many people in the evening
I don't want to write about Wanning either! But it's really beautiful~.
I took my baby to experience all the hotels in Haikou 🏨. From my personal perspective, the Shenzhou Peninsula Hyatt Regency Hotel is almost the best hotel in Wanning 🏨. The villa 🏡-style rooms have excellent lighting, privacy, quietness, and decoration! It's a great place to take photos.
_
Bringing kids here is really easy for moms, there are so many fun places to go.
The pool, beach 🏖, amusement park, etc. The kids make friends on their own, and you just need to lie on the lounge chair and watch them. The kids are happy, and the adults are relaxed 😉❤️.
_
The Camp Hyatt in the hotel has 🧗
a children's climbing wall, ball pit, slide, children's movie screening area, etc.
There are some rides on the second floor, and there are different children's activities every day, such as handicrafts and baking.
All of them are free.
🏨 When you go out from the back of the hotel, you will find Coconut Grove Avenue and the lighthouse. It's a great place to take a walk and enjoy the sea breeze.
The lighthouse is a bit far away, but it's a great walk if the weather is nice.
_
I always eat too much for breakfast at the Hyatt, the food is so rich, and it's perfect for taking photos 📷.
There are two restaurants, the Fish Restaurant and the Italian Pavilion, both with set menus.
Great value for money, and the taste is great. If you're bringing your family, I recommend the Fish Restaurant, which serves seafood and Cantonese cuisine, suitable for all ages. The Wenchang chicken is a must-try.
Finally, I want to say that you should pay attention to sun protection at the beach, the sun at noon is really strong!

Come to Wanning and take a yacht out to sea.
I've been to Wanning several times
This is the first time I've taken a yacht out to sea. I found a small group
10 people on a yacht, the price is about CNY 400/person
Depart from the pier of Shenzhou Peninsula in Wanning
The boat goes to a deserted island nearby. The island is not accessible
The yacht will stop in the middle of the sea
You can play with magic carpets, snorkeling, sea motorcycles, transparent boats for photos, and sea fishing in the sea
I didn't play much, mainly taking photos
The whole journey is about 2 hours of pure play
I recommend you to choose the 3 pm shift, so you can watch the sunset at sea
Super beautiful

How can you not eat seafood when you come to Wanning!
I asked the locals in Wanning to recommend me
🏠Sichuan Xiaohuzi Seafood
The old Hainan brand chain seafood restaurant is really delicious 😋
Their seafood is all freshly caught and made 🦞
The taste is authentic and the ingredients are fresh 👍
🦀️ Fresh and spicy crab
The meat is sweet and tender, a huge one is full of meat, it is super flavorful, it is too fragrant
🦐 Salt and pepper shrimp
The golden color is tempting, the aroma of salt and pepper is refreshing ☺️ The shrimp meat is tender and delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the slight spiciness and salty aroma of salt and pepper are perfectly blended, which makes people appetite

The palm-sized oysters are super fat and beautiful 👍 The meat is full and tender, and with a light sip, the fresh and sweet meat will burst in your mouth
I ordered a table and ate it all, it was so delicious

Coming here for a vacation, you'll want to come back again, the appeal is too strong
⛳️I really love Wanning, it's so suitable for relaxing and being lazy😊
It seems all the time can be wasted here😂Every day spent here is very happy
🎈Riyue Bay
This place fulfills all the fantasies and love that young people have for island seas, places like the Sunac Chapel, Coconut Palm Road, Haimen Coconut Workshop, and 216 Bar are all worth checking in, very photogenic. It's recommended to choose a restaurant in advance before going to avoid being overcharged.
🎈Shenzhou Peninsula Lighthouse & Coconut Tree Road
The same lighthouse from the movie 'The Disappearing Her' is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and it's very photogenic no matter how you take pictures.
The beach on Coconut Tree Road is what I think is the cleanest and most beautiful beach in Wanning!😊
🎈Shimei Bay Viewing Pavilion
From the Viewing Pavilion, you can gaze out at the vast sea and it's perfect for watching the sunset.
🎈dedeco Pool Bar
A pool bar close to the beach, really incredibly photogenic, with great design👍
The only downside is the minimum charge, with a minimum spend of 300 for poolside seats and 800 for the sunken ring seats.
🎈Qiaohai Ranch
Hainan's own 'Altay', Wanning is not only about the sea and beaches but also has large lawns and cute animals.
🎈Shanhai Wanderer
Primitive seascape, undisturbed comfort, sitting by the sea and watching the sunset is really comfortable, it's a bay that hasn't been fully developed yet👍
🎈Luwu Ranch
A super healing little ranch, feels like being abroad, with lots of small animals, mini horses, alpacas, sika deer... Pick up a vegetable cup, and the little animals will come running over, so cute!😊
🏝Accommodation Tips (Spend as you wish)
Shenzhou Peninsula/Shimei Bay: Many star-rated hotels, higher prices, private beaches with fine sand, quieter, for a better vacation experience.
Riyue Bay: There are many characteristic homestays, mostly concentrated on Riyue Island, very cost-effective, you can stay in a sea-view room for about two hundred, lively with many people.
Xinglong Town: Mainly focused on food, lower prices, accommodation conditions are a bit old, and it's far from the county area, not recommended for visitors.

The Most Comprehensive Guide to Wanning | Some personal feedback to help everyone avoid pitfalls
The Most Comprehensive Guide to Wanning | Some personal feedback to help everyone avoid pitfalls
Itinerary: Haikou✈️ Meilan Airport ➡️ High-speed train (ticket price 70 yuan) to Wanning🚉 (Shenzhou Station is closer to the scenic area than Wanning Station)
Flight tickets✈️: It's off-season recently❗️ Round trips from many cities are just over 1000 yuan, which is a huge bargain✅
Weather⛈️: Rainy season, the weather forecast shows thunderstorms every day, but it's not accurate. It didn't rain at all two days before we went, but it drizzled for the next two days😭 The locals say it's uncommon. But rain brings cooler temperatures! That's also a good thing!
Hotels🏨: 1️⃣ Star-rated hotels (good hygiene and service, lazily wake up to a rich buffet breakfast🍳, extremely comfortable) 2️⃣ Apartment with sea view (economical, balcony with sea view🌊, but hygiene might be slightly lacking) 3️⃣ Homestays (experience various styles👙, girls who like to take photos can consider)
Attractions💗: Divided into several major areas
1️⃣ Shenzhou Peninsula, the filming location of 'The Missing Her', I wasn't interested so I didn't go, but friends who went said it's a bit pricey, but the coastal road is beautiful.
2️⃣ Shimei Bay, sat in a seaside cafe for an afternoon, comfortable but... really a bit hot, all outdoor
3️⃣ Xinglong, just a small town, quite run-down, lower prices, you can go to try local food and fruits, experience the local culture.
4️⃣ Riyue Bay, where we spent more time, a surfing hotspot, mostly young people, bikinis, bars, fireworks. There are many homestays, and a small village, worth experiencing.
Food: 1️⃣ Highly recommend the Mong Kok pineapple buns🍞 in Xinglong, super soft and not greasy, go early, they're gone by the afternoon 2️⃣ Qingbu Liang🥥, the ones in Riyue Bay are not good, the Nanyang flavor flagship store's was okay😌 just so-so 3️⃣ Xinglong coffee☕️, can't taste the difference haha, but locals really have one in hand! 4️⃣ Coconut chicken🐔, locals recommended two small shops in Xinglong, but we didn't get to try, and didn't really want to go to the popular ones 5️⃣ The scenic areas are all run by outsiders selling barbecue Cantonese food and stuff, just, um um
Surfing🏄: Not surfing in Wanning would be a waste❗️❗️ 100-170/person (no difference mainly depends on bargaining, shh🤫🤫) It's cheaper when it rains, when it's almost dark, or when someone approaches you by the beach, we got a low price🤫. It's really a great deal, including surfing suit, surfboard, training, shower, 2 hours with a coach, unlimited time on your own, but you'll be very tired after playing for an hour. Non-swimmers can do it, but you'll choke on water and might get abrasions.
Summary: Cost-effectiveness🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Wanning is not too big, three to four days is completely enough, not a very developed city, suitable for a lazy and comfortable chill trip, completely relax yourself, girls must bring bikinis, guys must surf, rent an electric scooter and take a tour, over

⚠ Small tips
1: The cost of living in Wanning is not very low, be mentally prepared
2: For surfing, it's cleaner to wear your own swimsuit, the swimsuits in the store have really been worn by many people
3: When renting a car, be sure to buy insurance, and be sure to take a video when picking up the car
4: You must do sun protection in Wanning! It's not a joke! If you don't protect yourself from the sun, you will really get sunburned

Check out the same location as the movie 'The Vanished' at Shenzhou Peninsula
🏨 Shenzhou Peninsula
❤Recommended Reason:
If it's your first time in Wanning, you must not miss the Shenzhou Peninsula, a popular lighthouse from the movie 'The Vanished'. Just navigate to Shenzhou Peninsula, and you will see the sign for the popular lighthouse as soon as you enter the island, with free admission.
📝Tips:
Suggested visiting time: before 8 am or from 5 pm to around 7 pm. The sun in summer is really strong, so you might consider going around 6 pm, otherwise, it's too hot to be on the beach.
Don't drive directly into the parking lot; there are free parking spaces outside, so try to find one first.
How to enter the lighthouse
1. Take a sightseeing car back and forth for 20 per person, which is a good option if it's too sunny. Or rent a cute, popular tricycle across the street for 60 yuan/hour, and you can bargain!
2. If you see shared bicycles outside, you can also scan and ride them in
Walk around, and you'll find several spots that are great for taking photos!
Avoid going to the lighthouse at noon or around 1-2 pm, as it can be very sunny and you'll really get tanned!
🗓Itinerary:
1. Coastal Park
Besides the lighthouse, the area is full of glass beaches and sea entertainment projects to check in. If you want to surf or experience jet skiing, it's recommended to check the projects in advance.
2. Qiaohai Ranch
On the way to Shimei Bay by car, you will pass a ranch with a bunch of cows and sheep in the distance, lush greenery, and ducks. If you want to feed the ducks, go for it!

Seven Days and Six Nights Journey on Hainan's Eastern Route
The entire route: Haikou—Ling Shui Fenjiezhou—Wanning Shenzhou Peninsula—Wenchang—Haikou, travel by public transport + taxi.
Specific itinerary:
day1: Arrive at Haikou Meilan Airport, take the airport high-speed train directly to Ling Shui, then taxi to Fenjiezhou Island.
Accommodation: Fenjiezhou Island Fishing Club (staying on the island means no need to pay for entrance tickets, boat tickets, or sightseeing car tickets). If you require star-rated hotel accommodation, don't consider it. Benefits of staying on the island: After the tourists leave the island, it becomes very quiet and is great for taking photos. The sea is as clear as glass, and the weather is perfect for photography.
The downside: There are not many dining options, and whether you can find something tasty depends on luck.
Note⚠️: If you want to watch the sunset on Fenjiezhou Island, make sure to get to the island before 5:30 pm, otherwise, you can only wait for the 6:00 pm or 7:00 pm boat to the island.
day2: Spend half a day on Fenjiezhou, check out at noon and taxi to Wanning Shenzhou Peninsula.
Accommodation: Shenzhou Peninsula
When the sun comes out on Fenjiezhou, you can see the stunningly beautiful glass sea.
After checking out at noon, head to the Shenzhou Peninsula, where the hotel has its own beach and a popular restaurant and bar. The sunset on the Shenzhou Peninsula is incredibly beautiful, and there are special local foods around the hotel.
day3-day6, check out at noon, take the high-speed train to Wenchang.
Accommodation: Hua Zhu. Hai Xia Homestay (you can't order takeout at the homestay).
Spend the morning on the hotel beach, and after arriving in Wenchang at noon, head straight for Laoba Tea. Order a cup of Laoba Tea with various snacks and you can sit and eat all afternoon. Both Longhua and Wangxi are good, and it's up to you how much you want to spend.
During our journey in Wenchang, we experienced the warmth of the Hainan people. The homestay owner upgraded our room, the Didi driver recommended a suitable travel route, and a local fisherman took us to experience the sea, which greatly enhanced our travel experience.
Wenchang is not only home to the glass sea but also has vast coconut groves, Baoluo rice noodles, Wenchang chicken, vinegar, Laoba Tea, and more. For the Dongjiao coconut grove, it is recommended to drive to the coconut grove viewing platform, Confucian Temple - Wen Nan Old Street - Yilong Bay Sea Library, to experience a different cultural atmosphere. Tonggu Ridge - Buddha Light Temple - Stone Park offer exceptional views (weather permitting).
day6-day7: Check out from Wenchang, take a carpool straight to Haikou.
Accommodation: Qilou Old Street
After checking out from Wenchang in the morning, it takes nearly two hours by carpool to go straight to Haikou. Haikou's Qilou Old Street is great for photography, with many special local foods recommended. In the afternoon, head straight to Riyue Plaza duty-free shop, where it's recommended to buy beauty products from gdf. The sales assistants are enthusiastic and will help calculate discounts, combining offers. The cdf event discounts are not significant. The night market at Hainan University's South Gate is a must-visit, with lots of snacks, and the Qingbu Liang is superb. On the last day, prepare for the return trip.
Since I can't drive, I chose public transportation + taxi, but our experience of seeing the sea was not compromised at all.
Seeing the sea is not limited to Sanya; Ling Shui and Wenchang are recommended for their less crowded locations. With good planning, a beautiful glass sea is not a dream. If you can drive, it is still recommended to drive/rent a car for travel, as it offers more freedom and it's convenient to stop and enjoy the roadside scenery.
Cost: Excluding duty-free shops and airfare, the average cost per person is over 2700 yuan. Due to off-peak travel, including round-trip airfare, the cost is about 5000 yuan per person.
RoamingRevelations
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!
WREN GARRETT
Enjoy a two-day trip to Wanning without any tourist traps with this super comprehensive guide
Wanning's sea😍 is breathtakingly beautiful👏! There you'll find coconut palm beaches🌴 and endless shades of blue💙. This summer😄, if you're feeling down😔, just go to Wanning and see the sea😜! When the sea breeze blows🎈, only freedom and happiness remain😝.
🚝Transportation:
📌It's recommended to fly to Haikou🛫, which is more economical. The high-speed train station🚄 is right below Meilan Airport, and it takes only about 1 hour to get from Meilan to Wanning or Shenzhou👀.
📌Shenzhou Station is closer to the attractions🤩, while Wanning Station is a bit further away😕.
🏠Accommodation options:
There are mainly 4 areas to stay in Wanning, namely Shenzhou Peninsula🌴, Shimei Bay🎄, Riyue Bay🌙, and Xinglong Town🎉.
📌Shenzhou Peninsula and Shimei Bay have a better overall environment with high-end hotels🏢.
📌Riyue Bay mostly has homestays🏘.
📌During holidays or peak seasons, accommodation prices in the above three areas can multiply several times. Staying in Wanning city area is much more affordable. It only takes 7 minutes from Wanning Station to Shenzhou Station by high-speed train, and after arriving at Shenzhou, taking a taxi can save a lot of money💰.
🎡Must-visit places:
📌Shenzhou Peninsula:
1. Qiaohai Ranch: There are big white geese🦢, water buffaloes🐂, and ducklings🦆, as well as green lawns and hillsides full of areca trees, making it a great photo spot📷.
2. Sheraton Hotel Beach + Sea Swing + Corona Sunset Bar: The beach is decorated with paddleboards and a carousel🎠. To the left is the sea swing and Corona Sunset Bar, and to the right is the direction of the lighthouse🗼.
3. Lighthouse: Highly recommended to walk from Sheraton along the beach to the lighthouse in the afternoon, it's extremely beautiful. The sea area is wide, the waves are white, and the gradient blue is the richest and most beautiful among all beaches. You can also pick up small seashells🐚. After leaving the lighthouse, it's advised to take a sightseeing car as the walking distance is quite far🚶.
📌Shimei Bay:
Navigate to
1. Wilderness Beach Bar, and after visiting, walk up the road where there are markets all along; further up is the Sea-view Pavilion, below which is a beach that is the second most beautiful place after Shenzhou Peninsula. The sea is clear and gradient, with rocks that make for great photos without filters; further ahead is the Westin Hotel, with pink loungers and parasols on the beach, a casual snap brings an instant chill vibe🤳.
📌Riyue Bay:
Its features are the Coconut Palm Road and seaside shops, but personally, I don't like it much here. It feels like an overpriced seaside night market with an average environment. When it's crowded, there's no cell signal, and it's especially prone to traffic jams🚗.
1. The church is on Sun Island, a fair distance from Coconut Palm Road. Besides the church, the blue fence next to Coconut Palm Road and the pile of coconuts at the entrance of Haimen Coconut Shop are worth photographing (but the price of coconuts is three times higher than elsewhere)🥥.
📌Xinglong Town:
1. Bali Village, just take photos at the entrance🤳.
Opinions on the popular restaurant with Southeast Asian flavors vary, so I didn't go. Instead, I went to Huananbao, which tasted quite good. There's another restaurant across from Huananbao that's also popular, and locals say it's good too🤤.
💜Two-day trip itinerary:
D❶Bali Village➠Xinglong lunch➠Shimei Bay (Wilderness Beach Bar→Roadside Market→Sea-view Pavilion→Westin Hotel Beach)➠Riyue Bay🤩.
D❷One-day trip to Shenzhou Peninsula
Qiaohai Ranch➠Lunch with coconut chicken➠Sea Swing➠Corona Sunset Bar➠Sheraton Hotel Beach➠Walk along the beach to the lighthouse➠Leave by sightseeing car🚌.

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.

Although it's hard to hear, it's the real situation in Wanning!
1️⃣ Wanning's main four areas, Riyue Bay, Xinglong Town, Shimei Bay, and Shenzhou Peninsula, don't plan too much for one day, focus on relaxing!
2️⃣ Weather: The temperature in Wanning is rising now, and it's fine to go into the sea for a swim! However, it's still a bit cold when the wind picks up in the morning and evening, so it's recommended to bring a light jacket. The UV rays in Wanning are very strong, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun. Check the weather before going out, the color of the sea changes with different weather, and for photos, make sure to shoot with the light, otherwise, the sea will look grey. Don't give up on going out when it rains, as it's usually just a shower and will stop soon!
3⃣️ Flying to Haikou is much cheaper than flying to Sanya, and after landing, you can choose to rent a car to drive to Wanning; or take the high-speed train to Shenzhou Station, don't go to Wanning Station, it's very far.
4⃣️ Don't go sightseeing at noon, it's both hot and sunny.
5⃣️ It's suggested to visit the church earlier for the beautiful sunrise! It's better to visit the lighthouse later because there are no shaded areas around and it can be very sunny.
6⃣️ Regarding surfing, find a professional coach (don't trust those who randomly chat you up on the street), wear a long surfing suit; don't keep your nails too long, if you have long nails, trim them for safety first.
5⃣️ If you have a weak stomach, don't try raw marinated seafood easily, if it's not properly handled, you really can get diarrhea that makes you question life.
7⃣️ Don't go into the sea when it's cloudy or when there are big waves; always check the weather in advance, as the overall experience can be greatly diminished on rainy days.
8⃣️ Definitely, definitely, definitely bring mosquito repellent (important things said three times), the betel bugs in Hainan are really poisonous.
9⃣️ The UV rays in Wanning are very strong, so make sure to do physical sun protection, it's recommended to bring an umbrella, which can be used for both sun and rain.
1⃣️0⃣️ Riyue Bay is worth visiting! Suitable for young people! Recommended: Sunac Church - Haimen Coconut House - 216 Bar - Summer Surf Shop - Coconut Grove Road - Bay Area Bar Street
1⃣️1⃣️ Shenzhou Peninsula is worth visiting! Recommended: Lighthouse - Qiaohai Ranch - Corona Sunset Bar

✅ Recommended accommodation in Wanning:
Jiuyue Life Homestay
This is a newly opened homestay, located away from the hustle and bustle in Tianxin Village, where you can really feel the strong pastoral atmosphere just by opening the window. There is a double-layer waterfall in the courtyard, which is very photogenic. I especially like their bedding, sleeping on it is really too comfortable! An unexpected surprise was experiencing a singing bowl sound therapy when staying, the elegant environment combined with the soul-healing singing bowl, I really loved it!
