I thought Sanya was beautiful enough, until I visited Lingshui...

I've been to Sanya many times, but never expected there's a place even more amazing than Sanya! Today I want to share my secret travel spot— not Sanya, not Wanning, but the less-crowded, stunning Lingshui! Fell in love after just one visit! ✈️ Transportation: After flying to Haikou or Sanya, it's recommended to rent a car and drive to Lingshui. 🚗 The drive takes about 1.5-2 hours. Alternatively, you can take a high-speed train to Lingshui Station. 🏨 Accommodation: This time, I stayed at the Hainan! Sanyuezheng Hotel 🏨, and the sea-view room was absolutely incredible! For less than 500 per person, you get such a sea-view room— the value is unbeatable! ✨ A 350-meter platinum beach is right at the hotel's doorstep, with super fine sand and crystal-clear water, like translucent jelly. The best part? It's rarely crowded. At dusk, you can have the entire sunset sea view to yourself— no photo editing needed! ✨ Don’t miss the 21st-floor glass sky pool! Fully transparent design, swimming here feels like floating in mid-air. Best visited at sunset—the pool turns orange-pink under the twilight, breathtakingly beautiful! ✨ Detailed itinerary: Day 1️⃣ Sanyuezheng Hotel ➡️ Boundary Island Day 2️⃣ Lighthouse ➡️ Qingshui Bay ➡️ Danjia Fishing Village ✨ Must-visit spots: 1️⃣ Boundary Island (ticket: 132 yuan) Stay overnight for sunrise and sunset views. The water is so clear you can see the bottom. Try diving activities and spot stingrays! 2️⃣ Freedom Lighthouse The real-life inspiration for *The Disappeared*! To reach the lighthouse, navigate directly to Jianjian Coffee or take the small train for 10 yuan. 3️⃣ Qingshui Bay Fine sand and fewer crowds, perfect for kids to play in the water. Navigate to "Nomad Beach Bar" and walk right for coconut-tree-lined beaches—great for photos! Walk left to reach the lighthouse! 4️⃣ For local snacks, head to Xincun Night Market! Stir-fried noodles, BBQ, and Lingshui sour rice noodles are must-tries! Prices are very affordable! For seashell hunting 🌊: 1️⃣ Lingzai Village, Lingshui County ➡️ Fill your bucket with shells in minutes! 2️⃣ Shenji Grocery ➡️ Mangrove Beach, where you can catch plenty of small crabs! 3️⃣ Haifu Supermarket ➡️ Find loads of sea treasures like starfish, shells, and coral! Lingshui is truly Hainan’s hidden gem!!
