Why doesn't Sansha City in China develop a tourist attraction like Hawaii?

Many people have been to Xisha, or diving or sea fishing, and they are also curious about why Sansha City has not been developed into a tourist attraction similar to Hawaii in the United States. I think the main reasons are divided into two aspects. One is that the ecological environment of Sansha City is very fragile, and the other is the contradiction and complicated relationship with some countries around the South China Sea.

Let's talk about the ecological environment first. Sansha is just a city, and Hawaii is a state, which is much larger than Sansha and probably our province. In terms of natural seascape resources, besides Hawaii, the United States is also a world-famous holiday resort, and Guam and Saipan are also famous. However, our domestic coastline, industrial sewage, heavy industry, aquaculture and man-made garbage disposal have caused serious damage to the marine ecological environment.

Nowadays, seaside vacations in coastal cities such as Dalian and Qingdao are no longer holidays, but they can only be called "sea baths", but the seascape of Xisha is still comparable to Tahiti and even the Great Barrier Reef Islands. You can take Coconut Princess in Haikou or Princess Changle in Sanya. If you can find a fishing boat to camp on the island for the night, you will not only have free time, but also enjoy diving and sea fishing. Although the process is difficult, it is very exciting.

Finally, there is the contradiction in the South China Sea. Many islands in the South China Sea are still occupied by foreigners, but the sovereignty of these islands belongs to China, mainly due to historical issues. In addition, the situation in the South China Sea is now relatively tense. Because of this problem, the cruise ships coming here often stop. Maybe many years later, it will really become a world-famous holiday resort, but for now, let's protect this pure land first.
