Strolling along the 12-kilometer coconut grove boardwalk, with fine soft sand beneath your feet and swaying coconut trees, enjoy a slow-paced holiday basking in the sunshine and sea. Or embrace the ocean by surfing and diving—the diving location from the movie "Lost in the Stars" is here.
Must-visit spots:
✓ Freedom Lighthouse: A filming location from the movie, the red-and-white lighthouse against the backdrop of jelly-like sea makes for stunning sunrise photos.
✓ Longtouling Viewing Platform: Offers a 180° panoramic view of the twin bays, an excellent spot for drone photography.
✓ Qingshui Bay Scenic Area: Dig in the sand, go beachcombing, or take a yacht ride. The sand is incredibly fine, feeling like it's singing under your feet.
🏨 Hotel Name: Kimpton Qingshui Bay Resort Hainan
✈️ Transportation: 1-hour drive from Sanya Airport
