About Clear Water Bay
Its appeal is space: a broad beach, sea views and a slower pace than central Sanya. Choose a specific public access or hotel frontage, because the bay name covers a substantial coastline. Swimming suitability cannot be inferred from the name or appearance of the water; follow posted restrictions and lifeguard guidance, with a beach walk as the dependable alternative.
What to look for
- A long open shoreline backed by resort development.
- Changing light across the bay and quieter public beach-walking areas.
