Fancy trying your hand at windsurfing, sailing or kite boarding? Then head down to Xi xiu beach. There are a number of clubs along the beach for equipment rentals and lessons.
Xixiu Beach Park (西秀海滩公园) is a scenic water playground located 2 km (1.5 mi) west of Haikou’s Xiuying Harbour. While Holiday Beach is the most popular (and crowded) beach in Haikou, Xixiu is that “other” beach that is quieter and more of a spot of choice for water sports enthusiasts. The park is the practice and competition site for China’s national sailing and windsurfing teams, and is said to offer an incredible view of the harbor and one of the best sunset locations in Haikou.
