Sanya is located at the southernmost tip of Hainan Island. The city of Sanya is surrounded on three sides by mountains and on one side by sea. It has a coastline of 112 miles. The port, bay, greenery, sand beaches and caves provide a rich tourist resource. The sunshine and the tropical fruits and landscape make Sanya an ideal choice for escaping the winter cold.
The Phoenix International Airport has regular flights between Sanya and 18 cities, including Beijing. The expressway provides easy travel to and from Haikou.
The coastline in Sanya extends as far as the eye can see and the sand on the Sanya Beach is fine and white. The shallow sea is flat and the waves are mild. All these are instrumental in providing the best environment for sea bathing, as well as water skiing and motorboat racing.
