The Best Time for Traveling to Sanya

 

The Peak Season of Tourism

 

The best time for traveling to Sanya is from September to December and from January to April.

 

In Sanya, it's quite comfortable in autumn and winter. Winter is the best time for traveling to the seaside. In winter, though it's influenced by the cold wave from other places, you can still put on your summer suits and sand sandals, leisurely wandering along the beach or immersing yourself in the warm seawater. You can also have some tropical fruits while enjoying the romance that the sands and sea have to offer. Every December, the International Wedding Festival will be held in Sanya. It's generally held in such monumental and beautiful places as Tianya Haijiao to make the trip an unforgettable experience in one's life.

 

If you come to visit Sanya in the third day of the third month or the ninth day of the ninth month in Chinese lunar calendar, you can see the folk dance performances that can't be easily seen at any other time. You can also take part in the various festive activities.

 

Tips: It's all packed and it's difficult to reserve rooms in the peak season of tourism. If you favor a quieter environment and are not ready for high travel expense, you'd better avoid the peak season.

 

Regular Season of Tourism

 

You can travel to Sanya at any time of the year. The tourism industry is booming all the year round without obvious division of peak and slack seasons. It's only in summer and around the National Holiday that it welcomes regular season.

 

The hottest month in Sanya is June, with an average temperature of 28.5℃ and sometimes an extreme one of 35.7℃. In summer, Sanya is easily influenced by monsoon and sometimes even typhoons. In spite of this, many travelers still choose Sanya as their summer resort regardless of the potential bad weather. When it's affected by the bad weather, the prices of hotel rooms will drop a little bit and the number of visitors will be smaller.
