This Undiscovered Fishing Village in Sanya, With a Population of Less Than 5,000, Leads a Secluded Life
Perhaps you have once checked in at Sanya, visited the beautiful Wanshan Island Scenic Area, played in the clear blue sea waters, or enjoyed a cool sea breeze while barefoot on the soft sand. But you may not know that on the other side of the busy tourist Sanya Island, there is a fishing village that even locals may not necessarily know. It is the southernmost fishing village in Sanya, quiet and ancient, guarding the sunrise and sunset of this sea.
This fishing village is dotted with coral stone houses, inhabited by less than 5000 original inhabitants, without four-wheeled cars and no industrial atmosphere. Children run and play barefoot in the alleys, and old people sit in their yards, weaving fishing nets. It's hard to imagine that in the heavily commercialized Sanya, there is still such a piece of paradise.
There are many old houses in the fishing village made of coral stone, coral stone is light and porous, it seems that each hole reveals the atmosphere of the years. The small lanes in the village are winding and crooked, coral stone walls are flanked by coral stone paths, and coral stone paths are decorated with coral stone houses, forming a coral village. This kind of landscape can only be seen in this place.
It is said that some of the houses here have a history of two hundred years, and they are still inhabited today, but many houses have been demolished and rebuilt, so the current fishing village is a fusion of new buildings and old buildings, also witnessing the changes in the fishing village.
Walking along the coral path, you can reach the sea and arrive at the largest road in the village – West to Sanya Coastal Road. The road is flat and spacious, with the sea on the left and the village on the right. Turning into the village from this main road will bring unexpected surprises.
Occasionally, you can see the simple scenes of fishermen's lives by turning into a small lane. The boats are neatly parked at the dock, after finishing their fishing tasks, they gently sway with the waves, and some boats that have not yet returned to the port have gradually returned from the distance. The blue sky and sea that can be seen in one glance is truly the place where you can really calm down.
The sky in the fishing village is also full of dreamy colors. In the early morning, the sunrise is slightly rosy, and in the afternoon, the sky and the sea reflect each other, blue like shining gemstones. But at dusk, it seems to have been magic, shining brightly, making it difficult to open your eyes. After the sunset, the red sunset replaced the blue, becoming the main color of the sky and the sea.
This is the purest natural scene that can only be seen in the fishing village by the sea without pollution.
The difference between the fishing village and the city is that here there are no noisy tourists and no 'pitfalls', you can enjoy the pleasure of being accompanied by the sea according to your own wishes. Get up early to watch a sunrise, check in the most beautiful seascape, walk along the lanes in the village, taste the daily life of fishermen, and if you're hungry, find a local restaurant to taste freshly caught seafood. Life by the sea is not so simple.
Many people yearn for life by the sea, not only have the tranquility of the sea, but also the simplicity of the island. No matter how noisy the city is, it guards a corner of tranquility and isolation from the world. Friend Boat thinks that similar places will tell different feelings by different people, but its happiness and tranquility will be even more real after personally experiencing it.
