🚫 [Bloody Lessons Learned]
1️⃣ Never take a black cab. You can use ride-hailing apps or rent a car in Sanya
2️⃣ Buying clothes at the night market is a big rip-off! Be sure to bargain. If one doesn't work, try another
3️⃣ Be careful when choosing a wild photographer at Coconut Dream Corridor! Try taking a few shots first, then bargain
4️⃣ Don't casually play water sports in Sanya Bay. The water quality is poor and there are many scams
5️⃣ Apply sunscreen like it's your last day on earth! You can still get sunburned on cloudy days
6️⃣ Avoid touting seafood restaurants! Go straight to established stores with clearly marked prices
7️⃣ Don't be stubborn and walk at Nanshan Temple! Just buy the sightseeing car ticket
8️⃣ Bring mosquito repellent with you! The mosquitoes in the coconut groves will make you question your life
