The water was clean, but beach is so so as there was so much trash on the beach after the Typhoon

We went there on the third afternoon after the Typhoon. It was very hot and of course, not so many Chinese tourists. Nice and clean water, but the beach was quite a disappointment as there was a lot of trash lying around. Generally, it was OK, not so good as the first time I went in 2008. We went there from Wanning city, which was not far from the bay. There is a direct bus from the new bus station in Wanning directly to the entrance of Le Meridien hotel. And about 300m's walk, you will see the vast ocean. If you are lucky enough, you will be able to jelly fish swimming in the shallow water. They are pretty, but don't touch them as you never know whether they have poison. They day we went this year, there were some young guys fishing on the huge rocks about 50m from the beach. The water was so shallow that you didn't even need to swim. Anyway, nice beach. Recommended.

    Clean beach with coconut trees
    This is the place to come if you want a perfect blend of blue water, golden sand and shady coconut trees. It's not a big beach, difficult to get to without a car, and I'm not sure if there is anywhere to stay here. So I guess that limits the appeal to foreign visitors. Buy if you have a car, it's definitely worth a drive from sanya, you could have this beautiful place all to yourself (plus a handful of Chinese visitors).
