Sanya Warnings and Dangers: 5 reviews and 1 photos

Everyone pesters visitors

Although common across China, and in other countries, we have never been pestered as much as we have in Sanya.
Taxi drivers hoot their horns incessantly when you appear by the roadside, will actually block your crossing the road just in case you are retarded and need a taxi, but can't hear the horn or visually identify a taxi at 3 metres distance.
Hawkers constantly want you to buy coral, seashells and all manner of crap and trinkets. This becomes wearying in the extreme, especially when you find a peaceful part of the beach, sit down and relax in the sunshine, then have three vendors squat down within one metre of you, talk, shout and screech loudly and constantly offer you the same objects you politely declined two minutes previously.
The opportunity to relax on a deserted beach is spoilt, and it leaves a bad impression. Everyone we met complained about it.
