Self-driving may be more expensive. The cost of entering and leaving the port may be more than 1,000. If you drive by yourself, you can transport the car by ferry from Xuwen County (Hai'an Port) It takes about two and a half hours to get to Haikou (Xiuying Port). A 5-7-seat car costs about 450 yuan. This only includes the driver's ticket. Other people accompanying the car have to get off and buy the boat themselves. The approximate cost of a ticket is about 42 yuan. However, one thing to note when driving yourself is to pay attention to the weather forecast in advance, because when there is cloudy weather or heavy fog, the Qiongzhou Strait will be suspended, which will prevent everyone from taking the ferry to the island. Another point is that before entering the island, remember to Xuwen County filled up the car with gas because gas on the island is really expensive.

It is really convenient to rent a car on the island, and the price is actually relatively affordable. Generally, the price of a five-seater taxi is between 85-120 yuan a day. .
