Lock in ferry seats, island snorkel slots and panda‐free temple passes—no more dawn queues at the pier.
1 Overview
•
Real-name QR tickets are mandatory for all offshore islands (Wuzhizhou, Boundary), the Nanshan Cultural Zone, Yalong Bay Forest Park and the Atlantis Aquaventure Water-park.
•
Mobile-first: every ticket sits inside a WeChat/Alipay mini-program or the Dianping app. Foreign numbers usually work, but a China SIM gets SMS alerts faster.
•
Island quotas (reef-protection) mean the hottest drops open at midnight five days ahead and vanish in minutes on weekends/holidays.
2 Pre-Booking Essentials
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Passport scan | Upload the photo page (visa if asked) for every real-name ticket. |
| Mobile number | Mainland SIM strongly advised; most mini-programs now accept foreign numbers or e-mail QR fallback. |
| WeChat / Alipay | Link Visa/MasterCard after wallet KYC (passport + selfie). |
| Clock sync | Match device time to time.gov.cn (± 1 s) just before a drop—Wuzhizhou sells out in ≤ 10 min. |

7 Pro Tips
1
Set midnight alarm — Wuzhizhou and Boundary Island drops at 00 : 00 sharp; have passport number on clipboard.
2
Avoid ferry queue — book the 09 : 00 boat to Wuzhizhou; tour groups arrive 10 : 00+.
3
Sun-safe gear — Atlantis & Yalong glass bridge enforce no hard-soles; bring grip socks & reef-safe sunscreen.
4
Multi-device tactic — log into the same mini-prog on phone + laptop for parallel refresh during high-risk drops.
5
Screenshot every QR — 4G gaps hit cliff-side forest park & Boundary-Island pier.
Reserve Sanya's reefs, temples and water slides like a local—No Tourist Traps. No BS.
