     Boundary Island is one of the popular tour in Sanya. Here we come, Boundary Island, with a little bit of tour bus, plus a half an hour ferry ride. Boundary Island has many attractions that are beautiful. Boundary island is called its current name because it is right next to the boundary of the Tropics and the Temperate, 23.5 degrees north latitude. Boundary Island was fun for a small island.

     The temperature is higher on the south of the island then the northern region. The south has beach with peaceful waves while the north has cliffs with big rocks and huge waves. The high mountain on the north side blocks most rain. You may be experiencing sunny at south beach and raining on the north mountain. We were lucky to have a sunny joyful day.

     Near the lighthouse, where no tourists seem around, I saw some fish and crab crawling on huge rocks. There was an entire school of fish which you might mistake as seaweed. Far away, people are practicing their diving skills.

     There was also a coral beach at south bay. It is special because you can find multi-colored coral. The beach was full of coral and when you step on a beach, your foot hurts. Sadly, these corals are all dead. It was nice to swim in the sea. We also got to build a humongous sandcastle. It was a hot day and I felt good.

     Boundary Island was fun. The coral beach was awesome, and when you climb up the mountain, you can see the ocean in colors. The ocean border line of Tropics and Temperate is easy to spot. Boundary Island was a cool island in Sanya.
