Sanya Phoenix Island International Cruise Port

Sanya Phoenix Island International Cruise Port is a dedicated 80,000-tonne cruise terminal built in 2007 on the man-made Phoenix Island in Sanya Bay, Tianya District. It sits just east of the iconic Tianya Haijiao (End of the Earth) scenic area, giving it one of the more dramatic settings you'll find at any port in southern China. It's positioned as a passenger and marine tourism hub, so the scale and infrastructure here are genuinely cruise-grade.
