I've compiled all the pitfalls I've encountered during my trips to Wanning over the past few years! This guide is suitable year-round, so feel free to follow it! ‼ 😎 It covers all the essential tips for avoiding transportation and accommodation pitfalls, so even a travel novice can easily avoid any detours! 💯 I sincerely hope everyone has a wonderful time in Wanning!
🚦 Transportation Tips:
🚙 Car Rental: Renting a new energy vehicle is highly recommended. Wanning has numerous charging stations, making charging convenient and economical. When picking up your vehicle, be sure to carefully inspect its exterior and insurance status. Take photos of any scratches or malfunctions to avoid any issues when returning it.
🛵 Electric Scooters: We recommend renting one around Sun Moon Bay. The average daily rental cost is around 50-80 yuan. Riding an electric scooter around the beach is incredibly flexible, allowing you to stop and take photos at any time. However, please be sure to obey traffic rules and avoid driving against traffic or illegally carrying passengers. 🚌 Bus: Use the "Wanning Bus" mini-program to check routes and real-time arrival information. However, be aware that Wanning bus services are relatively infrequent, especially for remote destinations. Plan your trip in advance to avoid long waits and delays.
✅ Special Travel Preparations
🏄🏻♀️ Surfing/Diving:
⚠️ Be sure to bring some physical sunscreen! Available at many surf shops, it's not only effective but also environmentally friendly, unlike chemical sunscreens, which pollute the water and harm corals.
⚠️ A jellyfish jacket is a must! It protects you from scratches from rocks and corals while surfing or diving, and also provides sun protection, making it easier than applying sunscreen. Also bring a quick-drying towel to dry off wet spots and avoid catching a cold.
⚠️ For children who wear glasses, it's recommended to pack contact lenses in advance. Wearing glasses while surfing or diving is inconvenient, can easily get water in, and affects vision.
🧗🏻Rainforest Hiking:
⚠️ Wearing non-slip sneakers is crucial! The rainforest is muddy and slippery, especially after rain. Non-slip shoes can reduce the risk of falls. Also, be sure to bring mosquito repellent spray, especially one with DEET, for better protection against bites.
⚠️ The rainforest can be hot and stuffy, so bringing a portable fan can help alleviate the heat. Choose a rechargeable one so you can use it anytime, otherwise you'll easily sweat profusely while hiking.
🌊Seafood Hunting Experience:
⚠️ Gloves, a bucket, and tongs are essential for seafood hunting! While you can rent them locally, it's more hygienic to bring your own. Gloves prevent scratches from rocks and small crabs. Tongs are super convenient for catching shells and small crabs. A bucket is for storing your catch.
🌈Must-Try Food List
👍 Lin Jie Fragrant Seafood (Shimei Bay Branch):
A long-standing seafood restaurant with over 20 years of history! Even Wanning locals are willing to drive a special trip to eat here. The seafood here is all directly sourced from fishermen that day, fresh and plump, and the size is visibly large. Prices are clearly marked, so you don't have to worry about getting ripped off. The signature green pepper crab is a must-try; the unique green pepper sauce coats the crab meat, creating a spicy and satisfying flavor. The salt and pepper mantis shrimp are also incredibly flavorful, with a crispy shell and firm meat that gets even better with every bite!
👍 216 Seaview Music Bar:
Many influencers have checked in here! During the day, sit by the window, enjoy snacks while gazing at the azure sea and sky, and take in the endless photo opportunities. In the evening, order a drink and listen to music. Later in the evening, there's a lively wild party, and the atmosphere is incredibly lively. It's the perfect place to relax and unwind, and the snacks are delicious too, not just for the looks but for the taste.
👍 Cunba Old Coffee:
This small, affordable place is incredibly good! I recommend trying the fried noodle soup, which is delicate and flavorful. The coconut pancakes have a crispy crust and burst with coconut fragrance. The coconut milk mung bean paste is refreshing and sweet, perfect for summer. Their coffee and milk tea are also rich and not overly sweet, perfect for afternoon tea.

After surfing at Sun Moon Bay, of course I need to refuel. Thanks to the legendary Liu Yifei, I was able to enjoy such delicious seafood at this time-honored restaurant.

The stone pot sizzled as it arrived, and the aroma filled my nose. I could have had three bowls of bibimbap! 👍 🦀 Green Pepper Crab The signature dish! The crab meat was plump and sweet. The slight spiciness of the green pepper didn't steal the show at all, but instead brought out the crab's umami flavor. 👏 Even the claws were incredibly chunky! 🦀 Sweet and Sour Crab It was so appetizing! The sweet and sour sauce is just right, not too greasy. The crab meat is coated in the sauce, and every bite is a delight. 💕 Use it with noodles! 🍜 It's truly amazing! 🦐 Salt and Pepper Mantis Shrimp Savory and flavorful, the highlight is the shrimp peeling service. The shrimp is firm and chewy, with a wonderful salt and pepper flavor. 🥭 Spicy Stir-fried Quinoa with Mango and Shrimp Absolutely amazing! The granular texture of the quinoa, the freshness of the shrimp, and the slight spiciness create a layered, rich flavor. 💥 🍚 Yazhou Abalone Rice It's so delicious! It even has abalone, and it's packed with ingredients. Paired with the rice and special sauce, every bite is a true delight. ✨ / This restaurant's seafood is sourced directly from the fishing boats. The freshness is undeniable! The owner says they've been open for 27 years, relying on authentic ingredients. 👌 The taste and quality are truly exceptional. 👏 You must try it when you visit Sun Moon Bay! Free pick-up and drop-off are available within 5 kilometers. Remember to arrive early, as there's a line at lunchtime.

Hey everyone! Just finished exploring Wanning! Save this hot travel guide! Don't miss out on a wasted trip! Be careful when visiting Wanning in September: Due to a typhoon at the beginning of the month, some scenic spots were temporarily closed. However, they've reopened since mid-month, and there are tons of events to enjoy! From September 15th to 28th, Shimei Bay is hosting the BLING Lifestyle Festival, featuring yoga, sea fishing, and beach dances. Take the kids to the Shenzhou Peninsula for some fun family activities—it's a lively experience. If you're looking for off-the-beaten-path adventures, head straight to Yandun Village in Longgun Town! This pristine fishing village has a unique feel. Stay at Yandunhai No. 1 Courtyard, and you'll be right by the sea. Nearby, Swallow Cave in Shanqin Bay is stunning, with black reefs resembling miniature Icelands. However, wear flip-flops as the rocks can easily scratch your feet, so driving is more convenient. Experience seaside paragliding at the Zhengmenling Sea Cliff Paragliding Base—super exciting! Popular destinations are also experiencing new ways to enjoy the area. The surf at Riyue Bay is fantastic, though there can be occasional heavy rain and strong winds in late September. Just choose the right weather to go. You don't need to go specifically to the Guanhai Pavilion at Shimei Bay; the pink sand beach is even more photogenic. Visit Qiaohai Farm around 4 or 5 pm; the green pastures and sunset are perfect for stunning photos in a white dress. Don't miss out on food! The green pepper crab at Lin Jie's Fragrant Seafood is a must-try. Wu Ji's Hou'an noodles with yellow lantern chili sauce are incredibly fragrant, and the pandan cake at Xinglong Central Market is a must-try. Hongliu Tea Shop, a local favorite, is a must-try for its fried ice cream. For transportation, bus No. 105 takes you around the city, but driving is recommended for more flexibility if you're planning to visit nearby attractions. Also, remember to bring mosquito repellent when visiting off-the-beaten-path attractions. Some places allow for bargaining; don't get ripped off! Wanning is less crowded right now, making it a pleasant experience. Plan your trip now! #WanningTravel #WanningStrategy #NicheTravelDestinations
