China Hawaii, when bikinis meet black robes

❤The waves are like golden fragments, and the blue of Dadonghai Sea is like a piece of melted glass candy. Bikini girls lay on surfboards and screamed, women in black robes walked on the fine sand to pick up shells, and among the swaying coconut shadows, the subtle scent of sunscreen and agarwood intertwined in the salty breeze.

❤The surfing boy shouted "Be careful" in Arabic, and the girl in the headscarf pressed the shutter for the girl in the bikini. When dusk falls over the phoenix trees, all skin tones are immersed in the honey color - the magic of Sanya is probably to allow all heterogeneous beauty to be gently recognized in the waves.
