Hainan Trip- DAY 2
The morning view of the resort hotel besides mountains.
We savoured a local breakfast in this restaurant. 
Datong Hai was the first stop which is a crescent-shaped beach in Sanya.
Surrounded by the Sea, Hainan has an abundant source of seafood, serving the freshest seafood. There is one way to eat seafood at the beach which is Barbeque. We ordered prawns, fishes, satay, chicken wings and something looks like snails or maybe in the fact they are.
The tour guide suggested the best way to test seafood is steaming as it retains the original flavour of the seafood. It would be even better if you are not adding any source or chilli.
Sunshine...
Foamy waves. . . 
Blue sky.. (*attempting to be a starfish)
Clear water..
Sunshine, blue sky, clear water and waving coconut trees dancing on the white sand creating a beautiful tropical seaside holiday area.
The famous beach is ideal for diving, beach sports, bathing and sunbathing. I was lured by the attractiv diving package with one to one coaching and non-swimmers are welcomed. For beginners, the waterbed strolling would cost about 390 or 490 RMB depending on the package you chose. As for deep sea, scuba and ship diving, it costs 500 RMB. In addition to diving, other forms of water sports also available such as speed boat, motorboat, luxury yacht, sail boat, ocean fishing and etc.
Partially being influenced by Karmen, I always wanted to give an attempt on scuba diving. Even though I am afraid of water but I really want to try it once, at least once for the experience and live without regrets in my life. How I wish that I would come here again with all my friends to experience diving and enjoy this wonderful vernal sunshine, soft sea breezes and the blue sea.
Proceeded to Nanshan Temple, it is ranked as a 5 star Culture Tourism Zone.
In front of the sea watch terrace, we were really admired by the spectacular 108m high South 3-faces Kwan-yin statue facing the South China Sea. It is believed that this Kwan-Yin brings peace and prosperity to the island, supported by an unexplainable fact that even since it is build, there was less natural disasters such as typhoon on the island. 
Moving on to another attraction, we reached Tianya Haijiao (天涯海角), literally means the "Edges of the heaven, corners of the sea". What is so popular in this attractions? Don't be surprise that the answer would be the ROCKS.
In ancient times, Hainan Island was a place where those exiles lived because there was no means of transportation and few inhabitants in the island. Many scholars and poets recorded many tradegy here. The odd rocks with a given name were mentioned in the poems.
Southern Heaven Rock
Look at the sea, you will see roaring waves and splashing sprays!
Tian ya.. Edges of the Heaven Rock. At the back, it is the End of the sea rock. Hao jiao...
Tianya Haijiao represents the couple will never be separated which has been laid out as a scenic and lover spot for couple. Many just-got-married couples visited here during their honeymoons.
