Wanning Surfing Hotspot Check-in Guide

🍍Hey! I finally put together my 4 days and 3 nights ultimate Wanning travel guide! This hidden vacation paradise in Hainan is so chill, with coconut groves, sunshine, and surfing spots that are totally on par with Sanya!

🌴【Must-Visit Itinerary】
Day 1:
📍 Riyue Bay (Free beach / Surfing hotspot)
China’s number one surfing bay! Be sure to try a surfing lesson (instructors average 300-400 RMB/2 hours). Watching the sunset at the beach bar in the evening is super romantic~
🍽️ Dinner recommendation: SURFER'S Surf-themed Bar (Popular spot in the bay area, address: Riyue Bay Haimen Scenic Area)

Day 2:
📍 Shimei Bay (Free)
Known as "Hainan’s most beautiful bay," with white sand beaches and crystal-clear water, a must-visit for couples! Recommended to rent a bike for a ride (30 RMB/hour)
📍 M1 Coffee Fantasy Factory (Entrance 88 RMB including a drink)
The largest coffee-themed venue in Asia, a must-go with kids! Industrial style design perfect for photos 📸
🍽️ Lunch recommendation: Longfu Seafood Restaurant (Old brand in Shimei Bay, fresh seafood caught on site)

Day 3:
📍 Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden (Entrance 50 RMB)
Like a natural oxygen bar, you can try coffee or chocolate DIY (recommended to go in the morning to avoid the heat)
📍 Bali Village (Entrance 30 RMB)
Feel like you’re in Southeast Asia! Wearing Dai ethnic costumes for photos looks amazing (costume rental 50 RMB/set)
🍽️ Recommended Indonesian restaurant: Aroma Warung (Authentic Padang beef rice)

🏨【Accommodation Tested】
1️⃣ Sheraton Shenzhou Peninsula (Top choice for families! Comes with a water park)
2️⃣ Riyue Bay Sunac Boutique Hotel (Gathering place for surfing lovers)
3️⃣ The Westin Shimei Bay Resort (Private beach forever the best)

🍜【Foodie Checklist】
✔️ Hou’an Rice Noodle Soup (Local breakfast staple)
✔️ Nanyang Flavors (Signature curry beef brisket must order)
✔️ Farmer’s Coconut Chicken (Three coconuts in one pot of soup!)

⚠️ Practical Tips:
1. Renting a car is the most convenient! Attractions are scattered and taxis are expensive (recommended to rent via Trip.com)
2. Sunscreen + aloe vera gel is a lifesaver combo!
3. For surfing, long-sleeve swimsuits are recommended to prevent scratches
4. Off-season (May to September) hotels are half price
