It’s still early, so I can’t tell you about air tickets
Air tickets can usually be booked about a month in advance, and the discount is usually about 30% off, maybe 19% off at the lowest. It costs about 2,000 to come down, maybe you can find a cheaper one then, you can also take the round trip, which is cheaper
I will give you 2 Sanya travel guides. After searching for a long time, I think these two are still good. Yes, you can read:
Part 1
Eat: You must eat seafood when you come to Sanya. There are many kinds of seafood here, which cannot be compared with Chengdu. Although Sanya Prices have increased a lot since the end of last year, but if you eat at seafood stalls, the increase will not be much. After all, seafood is produced here. First, let’s talk about the places to eat seafood: I tried some of the seafood stalls introduced online and several higher-end seafood restaurants in Sanya. Let’s talk about my experience.
Mingrun, 168, and Chunyuan Seafood Plaza:
Mingrun, 168, and Chunyuan Seafood Plaza are widely rumored on the Internet. They are all on the same street. There seemed to be no online stores before. To be clear, in fact, Mingrun and 168 are two stores. The prices of the three stores are basically the same. However, due to the Internet, the price of Chunyuan Seafood Plaza has indeed increased a lot. Even the locals said so. Personally, I think Mingrun and 168 have similar prices. The price at 168 is about the same, and the taste is almost the same. They are basically stir-fried, and the Sichuan flavor is more delicious. However, these two restaurants take the seafood you buy to the back hall for processing... There are many in Chunyuan Seafood Plaza. The processing shop has a similar taste. The seafood is processed in front of you, and the price is similar to those two. I think since I have come to Sanya, I can taste it. If I eat this taste this time, I will eat it again next time. That smell.
Nanqiang Seafood Processing Food Stall:
Personally, I think this place is good. I have forgotten the specific road name, but it is very close. It is opposite Foreign Trade Road and very close to the seaside. The local As everyone knows (locals eat a lot here), there are also several shops doing business here (similar to Chunyuan). You can buy seafood here and process it, or you can go to the No. 1 Market to buy it and process it yourself. , and the taste of each restaurant here is a little different. For the same seafood dish, this one may be more Hainanese, and that one may be more Sichuan-style. (Personally, I think Chunyuan Seafood Plaza and Nanqiang Seafood Processing Food Stall are basically the same, but Nanqiang is closer, and the price is more cost-effective)
Hongsha Pier:
It’s relatively far away. Usually the locals take you on a boat on the sea and get seafood for you to eat. The price is cheaper, but according to the locals it’s dirty, so I didn’t go. The price is about 50 yuan/person.
Haiya Restaurant:
Many locals eat here. You can take bus No. 12 to get there. The cost is medium, the decoration is average, the taste is okay, and there is seafood, but it feels It's like eating in the workplace canteen.
Dongjiao Yelin Seafood City:
This may be a relatively expensive high-end seafood restaurant in Sanya. Just get off at Dadonghai Station. Some of the seafood varieties there are You can't get it in other food stalls, such as super lobster, sea snake, stone fish, etc. (some of them have forgotten their names). The price of super lobster is basically around 400 yuan to 500 yuan. The price is the daily price, medium size. The price of big lobster is around 200 yuan to 268 yuan. Basically, groups come here to eat, and there are very few private meals.
You can also try the Bao Luo Noodles from Market No. 1, I think it’s just average. Also, the Lanzhou Ramen here tastes very authentic, and there are many Hui people. Anyway, when you come to Sanya, you can try everything.
Crabs:
Sanya’s seafood is really rich. It’s not easy to eat them all. Some of them may even dare to be eaten dry! There are many kinds of crabs. I can’t remember the names. I have tasted basically all the varieties available. I think they all look the same, but the three-point crab is easy to recognize (very impressive). There are 3 crabs on its back. It’s a red dot, and the taste and meat texture are also better. If you want to eat crabs at Mingrun, 168, Chunyuan Seafood Plaza and Nanqiang Seafood Processing Food Stalls, the price will be more than 10 yuan to 30 yuan (the basic cap is 25 yuan) ) 1 pound of crab is enough (crabs in this price range are definitely enough for you to eat). You can taste any variety you can buy. Some crabs look big, but in fact they have very little meat. . The crabs I buy usually cost about 15 yuan to 25 yuan, and the difference in meat texture is quite big. The crabs I eat are all stir-fried Sichuan style, and only once were they cooked with some kind of crab.
Shrimp:
I can’t even tell them apart. The price is basically about 15 to 20 yuan, and they are relatively big. Anyway, I eat this kind of shrimp today and that kind of shrimp tomorrow. , if you eat shrimp at Mingrun, 168, Chunyuan Seafood Plaza and Nanqiang Seafood Processing Food Stall, I think you should just buy ordinary shrimp. The taste is really the same. If you want to eat the kind you saw on TV You can't eat super large lobsters (which are green when alive) in these places because the cost is relatively high, and this kind of large lobsters must be eaten alive (steamed alive). If unfortunately it becomes lobstered, the boss will suffer a big loss, but you can eat it in relatively high-end seafood restaurants, such as Dongjiao Coconut Grove Seafood City. The price of the largest kind of lobster is about 450 yuan per catty, which is medium. The big and small ones are around 230-260 yuan, but the price is the daily price. In fact, you can also buy this kind of large lobster in the first market, the price is about 100-130 yuan per catty, and it is a super large variety (still alive), and then take it to 168 and other places for processing, which is more cost-effective ha.
Shellfish:
Mussels: Found in Chengdu, steamed with minced garlic, vermicelli and local special sauce;
Small white snails: White, relatively small, usually fried or cooked directly, the price is low, about 7 yuan, and more delicious;
Scallops: very big, I personally think the meat is older, and it is also made with minced garlic, Vermicelli is steamed with local special sauce;
Oysters: foreigners and ugly, the price is how much one sells. After buying, you have to peel it open and then steam it. The method is basically the same, the meat is It's relatively tender.
There are many others, I can't remember them. There are also species of snails (forgot the name) that are delicious when fried and relatively cheap. Anyway, if you come to Sanya, you can Let’s try them all:)
The legendary Sumei Fish is really tender and very scratchy in the mouth, but the price is also relatively expensive, the medium and small ones are around 40 yuan per catty. , they are steamed and eaten;
Squid and cuttlefish: I have never been able to distinguish between these two kinds of fish. Anyway, they are both fried with green onions and leeks. They taste very refreshing and tender, maybe because Maybe it’s because I’m from Chengdu and I like spicier flavors:)
In fact, when I eat seafood in Sanya, I personally eat more varieties. In the end, I still think crabs and shrimps are the most delicious. Secondly The mango snails and small white snails, as well as the black jade and squid are also delicious. After eating them, I still feel that these types of seafood are still delicious, and I will try the others:)
Vegetables : Vegetables in Sanya are relatively expensive. Two handfuls of lettuce cost 4 yuan, and two daikon radish cost 4 yuan. They are basically relatively expensive. (I’m still talking about the price of the food stalls)
There is a special dish here, which is stir-fried orchid flowers, which taste a little sweet and are quite delicious. But the price is expensive. It seems to be 18 yuan per plate, which is more expensive than the half-pound duck I ate:)
Wuzhishan wild vegetables: The taste is average, this dish is relatively English and not very delicious.
When eating seafood in Sanya, you can eat Sichuan style, or you can eat the local way of eating: boil it. The local name is Dabianlu (I think the name is weird). You can cook all kinds of seafood The vegetables and vegetables are cooked in it, and then dipped in local special seasonings to eat. It tastes very good. Finally, use the soup pot to cook a bowl of seafood noodles. It is really comfortable!
Tip: When eating local seafood, you can dip it in the local special sea pepper: emperor pepper (not sure about the name, but it means yellow, like a small lantern). The local chop it into mud and dip it in it. Seafood is very spicy. It is best not to chew it in your mouth. Be mentally prepared. I dipped it in the seafood and chewed it a few times. I drank a coconut and it was still not over. :)
Mango juice, etc.: Generally, a stick costs about 25-30 yuan. I think two people still need a stick. It is frozen and tastes very refreshing. I think two people still need to stick it together. Maybe it’s because I’m better at drinking water. Generally, I don’t feel much after drinking a coconut.
Fruits:
Green coconut: 3 yuan, red coconut: 4 yuan, coconut king: 5 yuan (all based on size), but there are usually several coconut kings Sold together;
Mango: 2-3 yuan per catty, very delicious, Australian mango is more expensive and large, about 10 yuan per catty;
Peach: 3 yuan 1 pound, a lot of water, the green ones are definitely more delicious than the yellow ones, but I don’t think they are as sweet as the peaches from the North Sea;
Green lychee: I don’t know if this is Renwu, the green shell, after peeling it open, the inside It’s really sweet, so sweet that it’s cloyingly sweet. It has no water content and makes me feel like eating bean paste cake;
Mangosteen: Very delicious. The price is about 6 yuan to 8 yuan. Please note that you cannot buy the outer shell of mangosteen. It's a very hard one, so you need to buy one that can be pressed.
There are some other fruits, so try them yourself.
It is rare to eat pork in Sanya. In addition to seafood, there is more beef here, because there are more Hui people here, and people here like to eat chicken, duck, and goose. The name is: Wenchang chicken, Jiaji duck, and hot spring goose all taste good and are relatively tender.
Residence:
Sanya City is divided into Sanya Bend, Dadonghai, and Yalong Bend. Sanya Bend is the urban area and is also close to the sea, and there is a long section of the seaside. Dadonghai is also the urban area. District, but it’s a certain distance away, and Yalong Bend is further away. I think in Sanya, you can stay in a star hotel or a family hotel. In Sanya Bend, you can stay in a family hotel (actually a community-style elevator apartment). , it’s just like home, basically has all the configurations) It’s OK, it’s really comfortable, as soon as you get up in the morning you can watch the sea, the sunrise, and the fishing boats on the balcony, it feels so comfortable , the price is 200 yuan a day. If you don’t want to stay in Huanhai, the price in Sanyawan (not accommodation in the city) is generally around 80 yuan to 100 yuan. If you only stay for one day, it is not this price. These prices The price is generally for stays of more than 3 days. If you fly to Sanya during the day, you can book a family hotel in Sanyawan on the day you arrive. Most of the family hotels near the sea here have rental numbers hanging up. Just a reminder, if If you have been living in Sanyawan for 5 days, you can rent it for 1 month, which is more cost-effective, because the price of renting Linhai for 1 month is about 800 yuan, and the price for 5 days is 1,000 yuan. About. (The more famous family hotels in Sanya Bay include Blue Ocean Garden Phase 1 and Blue Ocean Garden Phase 2. There is another one that looks better. It seems to be in Blue Ocean Garden Phase 2. I forgot the name, but it is also very good. They are all close to the sea. ).
In fact, it’s OK to stay in an ordinary hotel in Dadonghai. They are usually 3 stars or above. There are also 5 stars, such as Shanhaitian. The scenery there is very beautiful. I will introduce it later. The hotel structure and scenery of Yalongwan are really good. It is very beautiful and romantic. When you come to Sanya, you must stay in Yalongwan for one day. It depends on your personal preference. There are some that are close to the sea and some that are not. Those that are not close to the sea usually have a swimming pool at the door or in front of the window. Really It’s very romantic. After dusk and daytime, two people walk hand in hand on the Yalong Bend road. The scenery here is really beautiful, with blue sky, white clouds, green trees, red flowers, swimming pools and various hotels, and of course a happy life. For lovers, it completely creates an intoxicating scenery. Booking online will be much cheaper. Hotel prices in Yalong Bend are divided into weekend prices and non-weekend prices, but the weekends here are Friday and Saturday. , Sunday is a non-weekend.
Travel (play): Some buses in Sanya are 1 yuan for the whole journey, and some are charged according to the number of stops. If you live in Sanya Bend, you will pass by No. 8 and No. 7, and No. 8 is a good bus. The bus only charges according to the number of stops, but this bus basically covers all the scenic spots in Sanya and the famous No. 1 Market. Note: The bus routes you download online are different from the actual ones, because there are newly added buses and routes in Sanya. In fact, you don’t need to download them. You will become familiar with them after staying in Sanya for a few more days. The air-conditioning effect of the buses here is very good, so don’t catch a cold. :) Note: Route 12 is a loop bus. The road signs in both directions and the names of the drop-off points are the same. If you are not sure, just ride the whole journey for 1 yuan. Also note that you can take the bus in Sanya. Some of the station names written on the stop signs are different from the ones announced by the bus voice when getting off the bus. For example, if you get off at Dadonghai on Route 8, the stop signs say Dadonghai Station, but the station name reported is indeed Xia. Japanese department store.
Play: There are many things to do in Sanya. Even diving is divided into so many things that it can make people dizzy. You don’t know what the specific criteria are. Let’s talk about diving first. If If you really want to dive and feel the blue color of the sea, you must dive in Yalong Bend. Although it is a bit more expensive than other places, only 100 yuan more expensive at most (comparison of the same level), Yalong Bend is really watery. It is very blue, clean and thorough. You can imagine the feeling of the seabed. For diving at Yalong Bend, you can just dive at 380-580. The specific classification depends on personal preference. There are also undersea motorcycles at Yalong Bend, and the prices are not the same. If you remember it wrongly, it will be 480, if you remember it wrongly, it will be 380.
Beach MOTOR: You must ride a beach motorcycle at Yalong Bend. It costs 80 yuan to drive quickly and takes about 10 minutes. It is very exciting. I once played an inertial drift, and if you drive well, The staff will basically forget the time and watch your performance, but they will not let you go too long.) There is also a sea plane at Yalong Bend. I can’t remember the price. I don’t know if it is 580 or 680 yuan. If not, For diving, just do this, it’s great!
Motorboats, parasails, banana boats, etc.: You don’t need to play these at Yalong Bend. You can play them at Xiaodonghai (also called Lover’s Bend) or Dadonghai, and the price is only about 100 yuan. , I won’t go into details, parasailing is to use a boat to carry you to the middle of the sea, put on a parachute, then use the boat to pull you to the sky, drop you into the sea and pull you up again, it is quite exciting, banana boat Many friends have introduced it, and you can also see how to play it while you are there. The most exciting thing is the motorboat. In fact, you can also play sailing. This is quite interesting and tests your skills.
Play in the water: If you don’t live in Yalong Bend, go play in the Dadonghai Sea. The water here is relatively clean, the waves are bigger, and there are many people, but there is definitely space for you to swim freely and the atmosphere is Very good, the waves are bigger when the tide is out. Note: Fresh water flushing is 10 yuan per person.
Introduction to attractions;
Sanya Bend: The famous Coconut Dream Corridor is here. Because Sanya Bend is in the urban area, the sea water sometimes does not look as blue as the Eastern Sea, but sometimes It looks very dark blue. I don’t know why. The coastline here is very long. You can walk 2-3 stops on the beach in the direction of the airport. There are very few people here. The scenery is very good. You can blow the sea breeze in Sanya at night. , put up Kongming lanterns (10 yuan each) because it is an urban area. I think the sea view here at night is better than that of Dadonghai. There are many lights to match the sea, which is very comfortable. The sea of ??Dadonghai is far away from the roadside, and there is a square in the middle, so It's rather dark at night.
Dadonghai: A place to play in the water, there are many buses to get here
Shanhaitian: Shanhaitian is an attraction and also the attraction of Shanhaitian 5-star hotel. The coast here It is closely connected with Dadonghai. Standing on the shore, you can see the Dadonghai water play area and so on. The scenery here is really good. The hotel's garden layout is integrated with the sea. There are many wedding photos taken here, which shows that the scenery is really good. The waves in Shanhaitian are very big, hitting the rocks, which is very shocking, and the water is also very clear. I have wedding photos taken here and uploaded them online. You can click to see them (vote for me, thank you) ) Shanhaitian also has diving, and the prices are similar. The waves here are very big. I don’t know what it’s like to dive. If you come to Sanya, you must come to Shanhaitian. The scenery is very unique, just like a painting, and like the cute girls from Chengdu. The beauty is the same: exquisite, cute and charming:) Note: There are no buses to Shanhaitian now. You can take a car under Dadonghai. It takes a long way to get there, so it is recommended to take a taxi.
Wuzhizhou Island: A paradise on earth, with blue sky, transparent water, white sand, green trees, and red flowers. All the words that can be used are used, but they cannot describe the beauty here. Here, the sky and the sea It is one, not separated. Everywhere is a scenery. The camera can only take part of it. Once you come, you still want to come. (Be sure to note: the weather must be good and the sun is shining brightly before going to the island, otherwise the scenery and experience will be discounted at 10%). To get to Wuzhizhou Island, you first need to take a boat ride for about 30 minutes, and then go to the island. It’s really awesome to get here. I can't join a group. When I arrived at Wuzhizhou Island that day, I heard the tour guide of a group say: "It's 10 o'clock now. Please gather here at 11 o'clock..." Oh my god, is 1 hour enough? The two of us stayed at the beach of the island for about an hour just after we got off the boat. We simply felt that the water was not enough to play in and the scenery was not enough to take photos. The sea water here is very clear, translucent, and very cool. The water is cold in July and August, which shows how clean it is. Let me tell you: Wuzhizhou Island has a special swimming area. Go to the right on the upper island. The waves here are very big and it is fun. However, drinking water here costs 10 yuan per person. In fact, go to the left on the upper island. , you can see a freshwater swimming pool, and you can swim on the beach directly opposite it. There are very few people here, but the waves are not very big, but you will feel that the sea and sky here belong to you alone, but there are Swim in the reef area and touch them. They are really sharp. After swimming, you can flush in the freshwater swimming pool. There are fountains here to wash away the salt and sand:) It is recommended to play and see the scenery first. Finally swimming. You can eat on the island at noon, there are buffets and a la carte options. The buffet is 50 yuan per person, you can eat whatever you want, but don't waste it.
Nantian Hot Spring: Not far from Wuzhizhou Island, it only takes 20 minutes to get there by car. It is very fun here. There are many hot spring pools and small fish hot springs. There are many Korean and foreign tourists here. Tourists, the building is very grand. You must carefully look for the hot spring pool and enjoy the relaxing feeling.
Nanshan: 150 yuan per person is very expensive, but there is a Guanyin statue on the island that seems to be 138 meters high. People here say it is very impressive.
Big and small caves, ends of the earth: You can read the introduction online. I think it is the most common attraction in Sanya. Most of the team will come here. I think the experience is average:)
Supplement: If you are staying in Sanya, many of them actually provide chartered services to Wuzhizhou Island, Nantian Hot Spring and other places. The price is just a certain discount from the price of the scenic spot plus the fare. It is not expensive. Wuzhizhou Chartering a car to the island and Nantian Hot Spring seems to cost 300 yuan per person. I played in Nantian Hot Spring at night and they picked me up at 8 o'clock.
Don’t take the 3-wheeler in Sanya, it will rip you off, and they seem to only take you to the places they say to eat seafood, and not to other places. Taxis are not like what they say online It's so crooked, it's still very formal, although some people... I just want to remind you: if you want to go to Chunyuan Seafood Plaza, don't say Chunyuan Seafood Plaza when you take a taxi, just say go to 168 or Mingrun or National The back door of the square.
Pinmingge: The items here are very regular and the prices are reasonable, with a 20% discount. But don’t buy small souvenirs here. You can buy them on the pedestrian street, and you can negotiate the price.
Preparation before departure
Sanya is a very suitable place for vacation and travel, where you can live a happy life like a pig. The sunshine in Sanya is beautiful and the beaches are beautiful as well, but if you want to be beautiful, you have to use skin care products. Sunscreen with SPF30 or above is a must, and you can bring soothing after-sun repair lotion, moisturizing spray, whitening mask, etc. Shampoo and conditioner are also necessary. The sea water is very harmful to your hair, and the ones provided by the hotel are of inferior quality.
When you arrive in Sanya, you must go into the sea. You must prepare your swimsuit, swimming goggles, and earplugs. Bring a change of clothing (the temperature difference between day and night is huge, long sleeves are a must), a sun umbrella, a sun hat, sunglasses, and beach slippers.
Medicines should also be prepared. Anti-allergic medicine, cold medicine, anti-diarrheal medicine, painkillers, band-aids, eye drops, sterile cotton balls, etc. Also, if you want to eat seafood, bring some norfloxacin and berberine. Don’t forget your cell phone, camera and charger. Bring your Walkman, paper and pen, and prepare some snacks and food you like.
The most important point is to remember to bring enough cash. Except for accommodation and larger shopping malls, credit cards are difficult to use in Sanya, and ATMs are also difficult to find.
As a reminder, when signing a contract with a travel agency, be sure to write down the details, such as who will pay for the hotel's adjustment fund, and whether the hotel provides airport pick-up and drop-off services. In addition, it is best to ask the hotel to include breakfast.
Accommodation
It is recommended to stay in Dadonghai. Sanya has three bays: Dadonghai, Sanya Bay and Yalong Bay. The advantage of Dadonghai is that it is close to the city and is convenient for shopping, eating, traveling and entertainment. There are fireworks on the beach at night, making it quiet and economical.
Yalong Bay is the most beautiful bay. The water color is layered and the beach is whiter. You can also pick up shells. There are many sand crabs at night. However, the cost of Yalong Bay Hotel is relatively the highest. It is far away from the city (more than 20 kilometers), making shopping, eating and traveling inconvenient. But you can still consider staying here for 1-2 nights. If MONEY allows, you can stay directly in Yalong Bay, or even consider staying in a thatched house on Wuzhizhou Island for one night.
The best hotel to choose is a beachfront hotel or a hotel with a private beach. There is no need to spend extra money to live in a sea view room. In fact, apart from sleeping at night, I don’t spend much time in the room. When I am interested in leaning on the railing and looking at the sea, I have already thought about running directly to the sea. In addition, there are many old hotels in Sanya, so it is best to stay in newly built hotels with relatively better hardware facilities. When booking a hotel in Sanya through different channels, the prices often vary greatly. There are many places where you can get the lowest discount price for a hotel in Sanya.
Other suggestions for Sanya self-guided tour in 2009:
1. Make your schedule more relaxed. It’s a vacation, so why make yourself so nervous. After breakfast, go to the beach for a walk first, then go sightseeing. At 2 or 3 pm, you will go back to the hotel to rest, then go to the beach to swim and bask in the sun, and then rest again. Then it’s time to go to the city to eat seafood. Come back in the evening. I also went for a walk on the beach, which was very pleasant.
2. The humidity at the seaside is very high. Don’t think that clothes will dry quickly if the temperature is high and the sun is good. Bring extra changes of clothing, including T-shirts, shorts, etc.
3. Try to enjoy the sun and sea breeze on the beach if you have nothing to do. Listen to music and drink Coke. In the evening, you can listen to music, count the stars, and be in a daze on the balcony of your room. Don’t forget to slather on sunscreen.
4. The hotel is the best place for vacation. High-star hotels themselves are the best resorts. They all have their own beaches, numerous service staff, complete facilities, and the garden is like a park, where you can stay for most of the day.
