- 5.0 Qixian Ridge (29 reviews)
-Worth the Steep Climb.
Thursday: 7:30 AM - 4:00 PM Nature & Wildlife Areas
Dec is a good time to do this. Nice and cool, no other tourists. It's quite a long steep climb to the top. Took us 4-5 hours round trip. 7 year old managed it fine, but might be tough for younger kids. Last section involves pulling yourself up with chains- not suitable for kids. Overall a great experience walking through the forest. Amazing trees. 50rmb entrance (I think) well worth it. Only downer was the crappy piped music that comes at you from fake rocks all the way to the top! See more..

- 4.5 Sanya Tropical Paradise (52 reviews)
-Mostly nice view and some commerce
Forests
Mountain park located close to Yalong bay. Resorts may offer free bus transportation but it’s better to take a short taxi ride, which is much faster because it avoids many stops and some cross-sell. The mountain is mostly attractive for the view. Little teams take you up the hill. Guides can be avoided because in our view there’s not much apart from the views, which are nice on a clear day, overlooking the bay and Sanya. You can walk around the mountain and there is a commerce street with shops and attractions. Nicely done but quite touristy. The zip line might be ok for people I in need of a bit of excitement (not us). All in all, you can spend a fairly pleasurable 2 hours here. See more..
- 4.5 Xidao Amusement Park (50 reviews)
-I expected more from West island
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Amusement & Theme Parks
When taking the trip here I was expecting that my ticket for the ferry would include some access to sights but sadly everything on West island is additionally charged... With great weather it makes a good day trip but be aware that even seeing the famous bull statue cost you an electric car fee... Sadly... See more..
- 4.5 Shimei Bay (34 reviews)
-The water was clean, but beach is so so as there was so much trash on the beach after the Typhoon
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Bodies of Water • Beaches • Beach & Pool Clubs
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. See more..
- 4.5 Jianfeng Ridge National Forest Park (28 reviews)
-Worth visiting just for the view
Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM National Parks
The rainforest is about an hour and a half from Sanya but well worth travelling the distance for some breathtaking view and scenery. There are some many plants and animals on view that you'll need lots of time to appreciate everything. You can get there by bus but you're better off taking a car or arranging a tour. It's easy to get lost in the park so you could get a guide. Bring water, sun block, insect repellent, sun glasses and wear comfortable shoes. Enjoy the fresh air. See more..
