Asian Dragon Bay(Yalong Bay), is is farther from Sanya downtown than Dadonghai beach and has been developed into an international holiday center with multiple 5 star resorts, golf courts etc. Situated about 25 km east of Sanya City and 35 km from Sanya Airport, Asian Dragon Bay centers on a crescent-shaped beach of about 7,000 m. The sea water is so clear that visibility can reach as deep as almost 8 meters, making it a very good choice for scuba diving and snorkeling.
The beach sits roughly on the same latitude as Hawaii and enjoys similar temperatures and weather conditions. The water here is wonderfully clear, reflecting the blue sky and white sand beneath the depths. Snorkeling and scuba diving are popular pursuits here given the clear water, bright-colored coral reefs and tropical fish that abound and this is arguably the nicest place to swim on the entire island. This is a new resort and development is underway in a very tasteful manner. This is a protected marine reserve and commercial fishing is forbidden here, keeping the water very clean and lovely for swimming.
