I don't want to leave Sanya after collecting seashells! It's so addictive

Going to the beach without collecting seashells always feels like something is missing! Although you can buy them at the night market and some scenic spots, it's the joy of finding them yourself that matters. For those planning a trip to Sanya, finding super beautiful seashells isn't just about luck! The key is to find the right place. - 📍Hai Po 19 Heng Xiang: After following the navigation to the location, walk towards the lighthouse, almost to the beach opposite West Island. There are fewer tourists here, and there are many seashells on the beach, with lots of cowries and various colorful shells. 📍Hongtang Bay: Near Tianya Town, the location is a bit remote, so it's recommended to go with friends for safety first! There are also many seashells here, especially after the big tide recedes. 📍Lovers Bay: Directly search for "Lovers Bay" on the navigation. During low tide, you can find many rare large shells and conch shells. You can also go to the nearby [Xiao Donghai] where there are many shells and corals. 📍Sun Bay: Navigate to [Park Hyatt Sunny Bay], walk along the small road on the left side of the hotel entrance, and you can reach the beach in about 50m. Walk to the left, the shells have beautiful colors and shapes, but there are fewer shells. Mostly small shells, each one is mini and cute. 📍Jiaotou Bay: Navigate to "Meilian Jiaotou Bay". The environment here is not the best, but there are many fishing boats, purple periwinkles and various fancy shells. - ⚠️Small reminder for collecting seashells 1. It's best not to go alone, go with friends, safety first, and never walk barefoot. 2. If you want to collect seashells, be sure to choose around high tide or low tide. You can find out the specific low tide time with a quick search on [Tide Elf]. 3. Sanya has super strong ultraviolet rays, so sun protection must be in place! Sunscreen clothing, sun hats, and high SPF sunscreen should all be arranged. 4. Turn over the sand more, but be sure to wear gloves, otherwise it will be miserable if you get pricked by broken shells, and it can also prevent you from touching poisonous sea creatures. 5. It is easier to find shells on beaches with coarse sand, and there are more small fish, crabs, and conch shells in places with many reefs. 6. It is recommended to wash the collected shells with a brush, dry them in the sun, and then you can use them as decorations.
