Hongtang Bay
红塘湾
A long bay on the west side of Sanya, with wide sands, few crowds and peaceful sea views towards the sunset and the new Sanya airport.
Hongtang Bay lies in Tianya District, between Sanya Bay and Tianya Haijiao. Its coastline is long and its beaches are wide. It is quieter and more natural than the city beaches, and in recent years hotels and resorts have been developed along the shore. Nearby is the Tianya Town check-in spot. It is a great place to watch the sunset, when the sea surface glows golden, and planes occasionally take off or land over Sanya Bay. The beach is open all day and free to visit. The waves can be strong, and some areas are not suitable for swimming, so follow the on-site warning signs. It takes about 30 minutes by car from downtown Sanya and can be combined with Tianya Haijiao and Nanshan on the same day.
