haikou is very busy and cheap. Best thing about it is the betel nuts. Its just full of bikes - electric bikes as they care about the environment. The air quality is pretty good for china and the weather brilliant even the rainy days are warm and streets full of water disappear back to normal fairly soon.
I had a bicyle so theres lots of places to ride. Sometimes wheres theres nobody riverline or coastline or off the beaten track ...

Hello out there. Just arrived in Haikou and wondering if I could get some tips about moving around Haikou. I'd like to do tours that may include English but don't want tto spend an arm and a leg or get ripped off? Not that I'm expecting that but wonder if anyone here has any hints? I'm on holiday for a 12 days and although with my partner bothe expats, she is with family and I'd like to use the time wisely?
Hope for some tips and look forward to chatting more on this site.
