Trip Report on West Island, Sanya!!

West Island, the only island in Sanya that still retains its original inhabitants, has become a popular destination for young people thanks to its artistic atmosphere and the most enchanting "glass sea" in Sanya. Here's a summary of key points from various aspects to help you plan your trip efficiently: 1. Tickets and Activities • Purchase tickets online 1 hour in advance for discounts. It's also recommended to buy activity tickets online, as on-site prices are higher. 2. Accommodation • Highly recommend staying overnight: Not only can you witness the romantic sunset over the sea, but you can also wake up early to watch the magnificent sunrise, deeply experiencing the unique charm of the island. 3. Transportation Guide • Official Sightseeing Bus Ticket: The 70 CNY bus ticket is a must-buy, providing quick and direct access to Turtle Beach. This is the best spot on the island, teeming with fish and shrimp, making it the prime location for tide pooling. • Village Tour Option: The 25 CNY per person electric sightseeing car is economical and convenient, suitable for touring the village. • Avoid Private Electric Tricycles: These are priced at 40-80 CNY and are subject to traffic restrictions, unable to reach remote areas like Ox King Ridge and Turtle Beach, making them less practical. If traveling with elderly people or children, prioritize the official sightseeing bus for a time-saving, effortless, and safer experience. 4. Featured Check-in Spots • Coral Wall: Located at the entrance of the coastal road (village entrance), it's a landmark spot perfect for taking photos. 5. Dining Recommendations • Snacks are worth trying, but other dining options require consideration, as the overall price-performance ratio is average. West Island combines natural beauty with the charm of a fishing village. Proper planning of transportation, accommodation, and activities will maximize your experience and leave you with unforgettable island memories.
