Flights to Haikou from the mainland seem much cheaper than going to Sanya. What is the best way to get from Haikou airport to Sanya? According to maps it looks like there is a train yet I don't see any information about it.

Hey Texas80,

Take a cab from Haikou airport to Haikou South Bus Station(海口汽车南站) and then take bus to Sanya.
It takes 3.5-4 hours from the bus station to Sanya.

Cab fare: around 40-50 RMB. Bus fare: around 79 RMB.

There're also 3 daily trains from Haikou to Sanya, which take about 3.5 hours.

Thanks for the bus info Marrymax....

Ellyse, how would I book these tickets and find the schedules? From what I can find online the trains mentioned are either from Shanghai or Guangzhou.

The best option is to take a bus from Haikou. It will take approximately 4 to 4.5 hrs to reach Sanya. At 70 to 80 RMB, charges are quite nominal and easy on the pocket. A taxi ride for the same route will charge 300 RMB. But if the drivers sense that you are a foreigner, they might hike the charges to 400 RMB.

You do not need to buy ticket in advance.There's bus from Haikou to Sanya about every twenty minutes.Until 9o'clock.
Cost is about RMB75 to RMB80 at Haikou NanZhan( south station).

Ok, that works. I'll get to see the countryside as well as save money on the more expensive flight to Sanya.
