🌊Wanning with Coconut Breeze and Ocean Charm | Island Vacation Guide from Haikou
Wanning, a 1.5-hour drive from Haikou, boasts clearer waters and softer sand than the city, making it Hainan's hidden gem. 🏖️
📍Must-See Attractions:
• Shimei Bay: Azure sea and sky, accented by vineyards, the beach is clean and uncrowded, perfect for strolling and watching the sunset. Rent a surfboard and experience the waves—even beginners can quickly get started.
• Shenzhou Peninsula: The lighthouse is a popular online photo spot, its white tower reflecting the stunning blue sea. The peninsula's gentle beaches are safe for children to play in the sand and waves.
• Riyue Bay: A world-renowned surfing destination, with surf clubs galore, even if you're not surfing, just sitting in a beachside cafe and watching the waves is a delightful experience. ☕
🍤Food Recommendations:
Wanning Seafood Market offers freshly prepared seafood. The Hele crab and mango snails are fresh and juicy. Be sure to try the local Qingbuliang, a refreshing and delicious dish with a coconut milk base and generous toppings.
💡Tips:
You can drive from Haikou to Wanning or take the high-speed rail (approximately 40 minutes). The island's ultraviolet rays are strong, so remember to bring sunscreen and a sun hat. Some beaches can be windy, so a light jacket is recommended.
