City Introduction
Hainan, China's tropical island paradise, boasts pristine beaches, lush rainforests, and year-round sunshine. As the country's only fully tropical province, this "Hawaii of the East" offers golfers an unparalleled experience where championship fairways meet the South China Sea.

Why Golf Here?
Hainan is Asia's premier golf destination, featuring some of the world's most spectacular coastal and mountain courses. The island has hosted international tournaments including the Volvo China Open, LPGA events, and World Golf Championships. From dramatic clifftop layouts to volcanic blackrock landscapes, Hainan's diverse courses provide unforgettable challenges in breathtaking settings.

Best Season to Visit

The optimal time is from October to April, with mild temperatures and low humidity. Summer (May to September) is hot and humid with occasional rain, but morning rounds remain enjoyable and green fees are often discounted.

Must-Try Food

  • Wenchang Chicken: Hainan's most famous dish, tender poached chicken served with rice and dipping sauces.

  • Hainan Seafood: Fresh catches including lobster, crab, and local fish prepared simply to highlight natural flavors.

  • Coconut Rice: Sticky rice cooked in coconut milk inside a young coconut.

  • Qingbuliang: A refreshing local herbal drink perfect for cooling down after a round.

Must-See Attractions

  • Yalong Bay: "The World's Finest Bay" with pristine beaches and luxury resorts.

  • Tianya Haijiao: Iconic beach with romantic rock formations at "The Edge of the Sky and Sea."

  • Nanshan Temple: Home to the magnificent 108-metre Guanyin Buddha statue.
