I give up on Sanya! This place is too amazing

Shimei Bay is located in the southeast of Wanning City, Hainan Province. It is a picturesque bay with white sandy beaches, clear waters, and dense tropical vegetation, making it an ideal destination for leisure and vacation. Here is a detailed travel guide for Shimei Bay to help you plan a perfect trip. In terms of transportation, you can take the high-speed train from Haikou Meilan International Airport to Wanning Station, then transfer to a taxi or bus to Shimei Bay, with a total travel time of about 2 hours. For self-driving tourists, you can drive along the Hainan Ring Expressway, and it takes about 3 hours from Haikou to Shimei Bay. There are plenty of accommodation options, ranging from high-end resorts to budget-friendly guesthouses. The Le Méridien Resort and The Westin Resort are two well-known five-star hotels offering comprehensive facilities and services. Budget travelers can choose nearby guesthouses or family inns, which are affordable and comfortable. The main attractions in Shimei Bay include Jiajing Island and Shimei Bay Beach. Jiajing Island is an uninhabited islet with crystal-clear waters, perfect for snorkeling and diving, where you can see abundant marine life. Shimei Bay Beach stretches for 6 kilometers with fine sand, suitable for swimming, sunbathing, and various water activities. The nearby Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden is also worth a visit, where you can see a variety of tropical plants. For food recommendations, be sure to try Hainan specialties such as Wenchang Chicken, Jiajie Duck, and Dongshan Goat. The seafood stalls around Shimei Bay offer fresh seafood at reasonable prices. Xinglong Coffee is a local specialty, and you might want to bring some home as a souvenir. The best time to visit is from October to April of the following year when the climate is pleasant and ideal for seaside activities. Although summer is hot, there are fewer tourists and hotel prices are more favorable. No matter when you go, Shimei Bay will provide you with an unforgettable seaside experience.
