#Hainan R & F Ocean World Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
I sincerely recommend staying for 1 day for a parent-child trip to Hainan with this included guide
During the past month's trip to Hainan, I took my family of six to the Hainan Ocean Paradise Resort for a whole day of fun. We spent the day enjoying the ocean world and amusement park, and in the evening, we watched shows and fireworks, basking in the lively atmosphere. Everyone, young and old, had a great time playing 🉐.
QiQi is not yet 3 years old and is under 100cm tall. To avoid taking the wrong paths and to consider the needs of the whole family, I did some research in advance. After testing it out, we mostly avoided any disappointments, and I'm sharing this with sisters who also love to take their young children out to play.
Planned itinerary (theoretical plan):
▶10:00 Enter the park, South Sea Train ride
▶️ Ray Reef, feeding the rays
▶️11:30 Sunny Theater 'Blue Ocean Guardians Sports Meeting'
▶️12:10 Whale Theater 'Blue Ocean Soul Journey'
▶️ Sailor Swing
▶️13:00 Lunch at the Undersea Restaurant
▶️14:00 South Sea Mystery
▶️14:50 'South Sea Mermaid Legend'
▶️16:00 'Dolphin Mobilization'
▶️ Enjoy rides like the Rotating Water Station Boat, Guard Glider, Dream Carousel, and Flying Adventure - suitable for those under 100cm
▶️ South Sea Eye Ferris wheel
▶️18:30 South Sea Mystery 'Nezha's Brain Sea Underwater Show'
▶️19:00 Iron Flower performance
▶️19:30 Colorful Night Parade
▶️ Dinner at the Harbor Restaurant
▶️20:30 Longya Party to watch the show 🎭
▶️21:10 Drone performance and fireworks show 🎆
The day was simply perfect 🌸 with so many surprises, it was impossible to experience everything, who understands❗️ In reality, because QiQi took a nap, we missed some performances, but it didn't affect our whole family's five-star rating of the park❗️ QiQi had a blast in the South Sea Mystery and Exploration Bay, and the elders highly praised the drone and fireworks shows, constantly taking photos with their 📱 cameras 📷 haha~ There's also the Sea View Tower, Shen Niu Bay, and the Telly Adventure Jungle, among many other worthwhile attractions we didn't have time for. QiQi says we'll come back for them next time.
Play tips:
❗️ Be sure to follow the park's official WeChat account in advance; the performance schedule is updated in real-time.
❗️ At the entrance, you can 🉐 rent a stroller for 80 yuan a day, which is cost-effective and convenient; a family of 3-4 can also consider renting an electric car, which is more effortless.
❗️ Dining in the park is very convenient; the Undersea Restaurant offers a great experience with healing schools of fish and mermaid performances, also suitable for baby's nap time. In addition, there are simple meals, burgers, and noodles.
❗️ Remember to get the 58 yuan drink at the entrance first, as you can enjoy unlimited refills yyds.
Overall, it is a comprehensive ocean-themed amusement park with a large area. We went on the tenth day of the first lunar month and didn't feel it was crowded. For sisters traveling to Hainan, Sanya, and Lingshui, I truly recommend bringing your kids here for a visit~
The off-peak Hainan is so great for taking kids out!
After the Spring Festival, there are too many people in Hainan, so avoid the peak season and travel at a different time.

Off-season parent-child trips are truly delightful! Here's your guide to Hainan's Ocean Paradise
Seize the tail end of the winter vacation and take your kids to Hainan's Happy World for a day of fun. Here are the must-visit attractions in the park:
💙South Sea Train
The South Sea Train is located outside the park, so it's recommended to visit it before entering. It's the first shallow sea monorail in China, and a must for photo enthusiasts. Don't miss out, as it has a vibe straight out of a Miyazaki anime with its sea train.🚄
💙Eye of the South Sea✖️ Overlooking Tower
Both attractions offer different perspectives to overlook the entire park, capturing the beautiful scenery in one glance.👀
The Eye of the South Sea offers a moving cabin option, a thrilling experience at a hundred meters above the ground.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Recommended for the brave-hearted, go for it!

⏰16:00-16:30 📍Dolphin Bay
You absolutely can't miss the dolphin theater!!
The intelligence of the dolphins is truly off the charts!!
Every leap they take causes the audience to erupt in cheers.
They are the perfect combination of cuteness and strength.
There's also a chance to interact with the dolphins up close.🐬

Exploring Hainan, an unmissable tourist spot
This season, exploring Hainan is definitely the right way to go. Why is Hainan's tourism popularity always high at this time? I think it's mainly for the following reasons: First, Hainan has a very comfortable climate this season. There are no biting cold winds from the north, no severe cold and snow, only a warm spring-like feeling. Hainan's winter is like a warm poem, with the sun being the protagonist of this poem, sprinkling every corner and bringing vitality to this city. Secondly, Hainan has rich historical culture and natural resources, including islands, beaches, mountains, waterfalls, rare animals and plants, and various types of amusement facilities, forming an excellent holiday resort.
Following the guidance of the self-driving tour map, this trip focused on Hainan Ocean Park. According to the description of the tourist color map, it is said to be the most fun water park in Hainan and a suitable place for all ages. So we decided to go and start the journey of exploring Hainan Ocean Park. Hainan Ocean Park is located in Lingshui Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province, adjacent to Sanya City and only 200 kilometers away from Haikou City. The park covers a large area and is a large ocean-themed park with eight animal venues and numerous amusement facilities. In addition, there are five major systems represented by the ecological coastline and ocean water park, supplemented by a 4000 square meter wave-making and various water-playing equipment, as well as wonderful mermaid performances and animal shows, greatly enriching the tourism environment here, very suitable for group or parent-child travel.
Must-play project overview: First, the South China Sea train is the biggest feature here. It is located near the entrance of the scenic spot, about 3.3 kilometers long, and is the first monorail train running in shallow sea in China. Tourists feel like they are flying low along the coast, and can overlook the entire ocean park and the distant coastline. Secondly, the South China Sea Mystery of Ocean Park, it is divided into seven theme exhibition areas, there are beautiful mermaid performances, and a total of more than 40,000 various aquatic creatures, especially the intoxicating mermaid performance, dreamlike, like a light red new moon on the horizon, dancing in the rolling sea of clouds. Then there is the thrilling and interesting jungle rafting. You can see a winding river extending in the canyon jungle, the bamboo raft leisurely, downstream, with the waves, thrilling but safe, there is a feeling of a light boat over the mountains, full of wild fun and passion, deeply loved by tourists.
There is also a jet ski water racing competition, which is an absolutely unmissable high-speed water performance, integrating speed, technology, courage, beauty, softness, fancy, thrilling, and appreciation. It's like dancing on the edge of danger, every moment is full of thrills, breathtaking. Young people's play projects have a tower of hegemony, the shape is like a twisted super long horn, tourists are in it, with the winding slide spinning at high speed, sliding down at high speed, can feel the fun brought by the thrill and weightlessness. In addition, the scenic area is also very friendly to parent-child tourists. The Storm Sea God Bay is definitely worth experiencing. It is a wave-making pool that can accommodate more than 2,000 people at the same time. Under the action of centrifugal force, the pool water forms waves more than two meters high. Sometimes it is as violent as a beast, sometimes as gentle as cotton, as if telling the power of nature. Tourists can get experience here, and children can also get exercise and growth.
Transportation strategy: Non-self-driving tourists can take the Lingshui 91 bus and get off at the Ocean Park station. Ticket policy: There are various types of tickets for Hainan Ocean Park. Adult tickets are 298 yuan per person, student tickets are 248 yuan per person, and there are preferential policies for college entrance examination students and special groups. The specific details are subject to the announcement of the scenic spot on the day. In summary, Hainan Ocean Park has beautiful scenery, many sea play projects, suitable for all ages. Due to limited space, it is not exhaustive, so I will share it here.
