Sun Bay
太阳湾
A secluded bay on the east side of Yalong Bay, where a winding coastal road overlooks the bright blue water and is one of Sanya's most beautiful driving routes.
Sun Bay lies between Yalong Bay and Haitang Bay, surrounded by mountains and forest. The bay is calm and clear, and high-end hotels such as Park Hyatt are located within it. The Sun Bay Road, which connects the two major bays, winds along the mountainside, and several viewing platforms along the way overlook the blue-green bay and the islands beyond. It is considered one of Sanya's most beautiful seaside roads, suited to self-driving, cycling or hiring a car for photos. Most of the beach is in hotel areas, so public access is limited. The road is open all day and free to use. Note that there are many sharp bends, so do not stop in the middle of the road to enjoy the view. The drive from Yalong Bay takes about 15 minutes.
