A coastal resort city at the southern tip of Hainan Island, Sanya borders clear South China Sea waters and long sandy beaches at Yalong Bay, Haitang Bay, and Dadonghai. The tropical climate allows year-round beach activity, distinguishing it from all other major Chinese coastal destinations. Wuzhizhou Island offshore provides reef diving and snorkeling around coral formations.
