If you're looking for a slice of paradise in China, Shimei Bay is the perfect destination. With its crystal-clear waters, soft white sand, and lush green hills, it's the ideal place to relax and unwind. There are two amazing resorts on Shimei Bay that I would highly recommend for your stay. The first is the Le Meridian Shimei Bay Beach Resort & Spa, which offers luxurious accommodations with stunning views of the sea. The resort features a private beach, multiple swimming pools, and a range of restaurants and bars. The second resort is the Westin Shimei Bay Resort, which offers spacious rooms and villas that are perfect for families or groups. The resort has an excellent fitness center, a kids' club, and a range of activities such as kayaking, paddleboarding, and beach volleyball. Both resorts offer plenty of opportunities to enjoy the natural beauty of Shimei Bay, from beach walks to snorkeling and diving. If you're looking for a more active vacation, the Westin offers an array of water sports, including surfing and windsurfing. Shimei Bay is a true gem on Hainan Island, and these resorts are the perfect places to stay to experience its beauty and serenity.

🍺 Hardbar is located @ the beachfront of Westin Shimei Bay hotel, Wanning. It serves different kinds of drinks and snacks. 💵The drinks prices are similar to other bars, approximately around 68-78¥ per cocktails.🍸 The area is small but decorated cutely 😍 (very instagrammable) ☑️The owner of Hardbar can speak a little bit of English and tried his best to serve us well. 👍🏻

Shimei Bay is in the middle of most attractions in Wanning, so it is also recommended to stay in Shimei Bay, where it takes about 20 minutes by taxi to Riyue Bay, Shenzhou Peninsula, and Xinglong. Play in Shimei Bay: Guanhai Pavilion: The Guanhai Pavilion is actually next to the most beautiful highway, where there are many car-based shops, offering food and drinks. It is even more recommended to go to Shimei Bay for meals, and you can stop by for photos along the way. Pink Beach: Navigate to the Westin Hotel, and you can see it by passing through the lobby of the Westin Hotel to the beach. It is also very suitable to order a drink and leisurely enjoy an afternoon here. The pink decorations are very photogenic Eat in Shimei Bay: Taiqiong Zao Cake Vinegar Hotpot: The base of the pot is a type of sour soup hotpot, slightly light, but the more you eat, the more you want to eat. The sour soup is very appetizing, and you can eat three big bowls of it The most recommended is: pickled cabbage beef shreds, which are amazing After comparison, group buying is a bit more cost-effective. Tender Coconut Chicken: The coconut chicken is very tender, and the soup base is boiled with pure coconut water, so it tastes rich in coconut flavor. The service is super good, meticulous 💜 Drink recommendation "Coconut Milk Rain Flower Fatty Beef" Cantonese Restaurant: This restaurant is right opposite the Westin Hotel, "Bai Qie Hainan Wenchang Chicken" is too fatty, the dipping sauce is also too oily and the dipping sauce did not play a finishing touch, on the contrary, it is greasier, maybe I don't understand Cantonese cuisine, so I won't comment on this, I don't really recommend it personally. "Shenjing Roast Goose" tasted a bit salty when served, but it got slightly better with the dipping sauce. Worth a try. There is also a "sour cabbage something fish" if you can't accept the fishy taste of sea fish, be cautious, didn't really taste the sour cabbage, but highly recommend "Coconut Meat Juice Seafood Soup" was amazed at the first sip, full of coconut flavor with the freshness of seafood, memorable and a must-try Another recommendation is "Cold Mixed Sea Zhe" which is very much in line with the taste of Sichuan and Chongqing people 🎈 What I can't accept a little is that a bowl of rice costs 6 yuan Overall, there is not much to play in Shimei Bay, but the more characteristic gourmet restaurants are all here, and the location is relatively convenient.

Located on the eastern coast of Wanning City in Hainan Province, Shimei Bay is praised by experts from the World Tourism Organization as the most beautiful undeveloped bay in Hainan. It boasts stunning primitive scenery, with a 7-kilometer-long turquoise sea and silver beach. On one side of the beach is the boundless ocean, and on the other is a forest full of tropical charm. It consists of two crescent-shaped bays, surrounded by gently sloping hills lush with vegetation. White sands, turquoise waves, palm trees, and the cries of seagulls create a unique South Sea landscape. Jiajing Island, within Shimei Bay, is about 3 kilometers from the coast and is one of the few tiny islands in Hainan with fresh water resources. Strolling along the beach or snorkeling to see the rich and colorful marine life will certainly be an eye-opening experience!

For sisters planning to come to Wanning, here are some honest tips about Qiaohai Ranch, Shimei Bay, and Riyue Bay: 1. Before you travel, be sure to check the weather and temperature. The season doesn't matter much as spring, summer, autumn, and winter are all fine, but the weather is very important! Weather and humidity directly affect the experience of your visit. 2. It is recommended to travel independently. After arriving in Haikou, take the high-speed train to Wanning, where you can rent a car or an electric bike locally. 3. Wanning has strong ultraviolet rays, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun. 4. Wearing light-colored dresses for photos is very photogenic. My two favorite check-in spots: √ Qiaohai Ranch It's a natural ranch, great for sisters who like to take photos! The environment is unmanaged, but it's very original and full of life. Blue skies, white clouds, grasslands, and streams, the sunlight makes it feel like walking into an oil painting. Watching the geese flap and swim is so healing!!! It's too hot at noon, so it's better to go around 4 pm~ But if you have high expectations for the attractions, there's no need to make a special trip. The photos are very photogenic, but there's not much else to do. √ Shimei Bay Viewing Pavilion Wanning is not just about Riyue Bay; Shimei Bay is also beautiful. The coastal road is very picturesque, and if you go down the small path, you'll find a rocky beach that's also beautiful! The key is that there are fewer people than at Riyue Bay, so it's very relaxing. When I went there before, there were many distinctive cars and roadside stalls, which were great for taking photos! I don't know if they are still there now. And the coconuts I bought were only 6 yuan each! So sweet and refreshing! Sitting by the sea, idling away an afternoon, taking photos, chatting, and sunbathing You can also walk down from the Viewing Pavilion to the beach. If you don't know the way, you can ask the stall owners. There are very few people by the sea, so you can have the whole beach to yourself.

The Shimei Bay is located in the southern part of the Xinglong Overseas Chinese Farm in Wanning, Hainan. We passed by here on our way to Wenchang and took the opportunity to visit, leaving a good impression. The tourist facilities here are basically complete, and the resting environment provided by the beach is very stylish, with a bit of exotic flair. The sand is very fine and walking to the seaside doesn't hurt your feet, and the sand doesn't get into your shoes. The entire bay has a very good visual appeal. There are water and beach entertainment projects. The scenic area is free to visit

Adjacent to the beautiful Shimei Bay and Xinglong Tropical Garden, it is only a 10-30 minute drive from the beautiful Nanyan Bay, Riyue Bay tourist area, and Fenjiezhou scenic spot. Nestled against the mountains and near the water, the surrounding area has convenient transportation, with the G98 ring island expressway running through it. Nearby, there are commercial facilities such as the China Resources Shimei Bay Jiuli Commercial Street and Wanning Wangfujing. Attractions in the vicinity include Shimei Bay, Jiajing Island, Riyue Bay, Fenjiezhou, and China Resources Shimei Bay International Yacht Club, making it the best choice for going out to sea and surfing.
