Sanya Bay
Sanya's longest beach at 22 km - the famous coconut palm promenade makes it perfect for jogging and cycling at sunset. This is a true city beach where locals mix with tourists in the evening, creating an authentic atmosphere rare in resort areas. The sunsets are among China's most spectacular, painting the sky in golden oranges that reflect off the calm sea. Free entry and affordable restaurants line the promenade. Less developed than Yalong Bay but more authentic and budget-friendly.
