Coconut rice is a traditional specialty snack and is made by cooking sticky rice right inside a freshly picked coconut. Cut into slices, the sticky rice and the coconut meat are eaten together, making for a sweet tropical treat.
You cannot leave Hainan without tasting the renowned “four specialties” – Wenchang Chicken, Jiaji Duck, Dongshan Lamb and Hele Crab.
