Notes

Before going to the Xisha Islands, you should check the weather forecast to find out whether there is a typhoon. The Xisha Islands are Typhoons are common, so the best time to travel to Xisha is from March to July every year.

The ultraviolet rays in the Xisha Islands are much stronger than those in Sanya, so you should wear sunscreen and bring seasickness medicine and other necessary items.

Since you need to take a shuttle boat to go to the destination island, you must do a good job in waterproofing the machinery and equipment, bring a waterproof bag for your mobile phone, and keep your camera and other electronic products safe.

You are not allowed to wear slippers, including flip-flops, on the island. You must wear heeled sandals or beach shoes. This is a mandatory rule of the cruise company and is also for the safety of our travelers.
