Highway
As the main means of land transportation in Hainan, expressways spread throughout the province. The total length of expressways in Hainan is more than 17,000 kilometers. There are trunk roads connecting ports, cities and counties across the island, and branch roads reach to 318 villages and towns and all tourist sites. There is a round-the-island expressway that enables a short drive of just two hours from Haikou in the North to Sanya in the South.
Tourists now are able take a coach from many cities in Chinese mainland to Hainan Province, for example: Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Zhanjiang, Nanning and Chongqing.
Boat
There are altogether 24 ports, including 16 deep-water berths for over 10,000-ton ships, in Hainan Province, with connections to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, coastal ports on the Chinese mainland, and more than 20 regions and countries in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Europe.
