Begonia Bay: Romance is in the air

The sunset over Begonia Bay is one of the most romantic views in the city of Sanya. The sea is washed in a golden light when the sun sets, making this the perfect time to walk across the wooden bridge onto the overgrown, jungle-like coconut island. Here you can enjoy the original natural scenery of Hainan, and follow in the footprints of the islanders of old.

The coast traces the outline of the form of mother earth, with modern buildings sprouting up like new species of trees and flowering branches. This urban forest creates an aesthetic jungle made up of hotels, shops, and restaurants, each with its own unique style, telling the story of today’s Begonia Bay.

Get an overview of Begonia Bay at night from the top of the 88-meter-high Sanya Eye Ferris Wheel. Bask in the gentle breeze, watching the dazzling lights and shadows as you slowly rise to the highest point, giving you a breathtaking view across Begonia Bay.
