Sanya unites sports, tourism for ultimate adventure

In recent times, Sanya has been leveraging its geographical and policy advantages to introduce and host various sporting events, promoting the integrated development of sports and tourism.

The 15th Tour of the Hainan International Road Cycling Race in August sparked a summer tourism boom in Sanya this year. September's China Fitness Star Sanya Tour, meanwhile, was primed for the National Day holiday influx, and October featured the 2024 Hainan Golf Open European Tour Challenge and the 2024 International Tourism Island Windsurfing Grand Prix, boosting interest in off-season travel.

A tourist from Hunan province surnamed Zhang expressed his excitement for the windsurfing race. Participants like Men's Senior Champion Wang Yanmu praised the ideal competition environment, combining the thrill of competition with the leisurely environment of Sanya.

Today, "sports + tourism" is a vital concept for high-quality tourism and enhancing a city's image. Sanya's policies include a streamlined approval process for major events, ensuring smooth execution and offering substantial rewards. Exclusive tourism activities will cater to a diverse array of events and participants, enhancing experiences and driving tourism growth.

Upcoming events include the 2024 World Beach Ultimate Frisbee Elite Invitational and the 2024 Hainan (Sanya) Marathon, showcasing Sanya's commitment to the integrated development of sports and tourism.
