Staying up late to compile this! A super comprehensive travel guide for Sanya after 5 visits

My dears 🥰, today I'm sharing my Sanya travel experience. It's no exaggeration to say that once you're there, you won't want to leave. Who gets it?! 🌴Sanya is a dream paradise, with blue skies, white clouds, and blue seas and beaches. Every scene is breathtakingly beautiful. Walking down the streets of Sanya, feeling the tropical atmosphere, my heart was instantly healed~ Recommended Itinerary Day 1 Morning 🌅: After arriving in Sanya, head straight to the hotel to check in and drop off your luggage. If you're staying near Yalong Bay, I highly recommend going to Yalong Bay Beach first. The sand is as fine as powder, and the water is so clear you can see small fish swimming around 🐟. Lunch 🍱: Indulge in a seafood feast at a Yalong Bay seafood restaurant, savoring all kinds of fresh seafood. Each bite is an explosion of flavor! Afternoon 🌳: Head to the Tropical Paradise Forest Park, where the tropical rainforest is lush and green 🌴, and the natural scenery is stunning. Take a cable car through the park, enjoying the panoramic views, or stroll through the forest, embracing nature. Evening 🌙: Return to Yalong Bay and enjoy dinner at a seaside restaurant with ocean views. After dinner, take a walk on the beach, enjoying the gentle sea breeze. It's incredibly relaxing. Day 2 Morning 🚢: Head to Wuzhizhou Island, where the water is even clearer and the beach is unbelievably beautiful. Enjoy diving 🤿, jet skiing, and other exciting water sports! Lunch 🍜: Dine at a restaurant on Wuzhizhou Island, where there are plenty of food options. Afternoon 📸: Continue exploring the island, taking stunning photos at every turn, and checking in at various scenic spots. Evening 🍤: Return to the city and head to No.1 Market for seafood. There's a wide variety of seafood at affordable prices. Choose your favorite seafood and have it cooked at a processing restaurant. Deliciousness awaits! Day 3 Morning 🙏: Visit the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone, where the magnificent statue of the South Sea Guanyin is solemn and awe-inspiring, and the rich Buddhist cultural landscape evokes reverence. Visit the temple and experience the tranquility. Lunch 🥗: Enjoy local vegetarian cuisine at a restaurant near the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone. The taste is surprisingly good. Afternoon 🌊: Head to Dadonghai and Xiaodonghai, where the beautiful seascape complements the unique rock formations. Every photo is a masterpiece. Evening 🍽️: Enjoy dinner at a restaurant near Dadonghai and Xiaodonghai, and then return to the hotel to rest. 9 Must-See Attractions 1.
