Nanwan Monkey Island is located on the Nanwan peninsula in Lingshui county on the south coast of Hainan, the southernmost province of China.

As the only island-type nature reserve for macaque monkeys in the world, it is home to over 2,500 monkeys and about 400 kinds of tropical plants.

The island's primitive natural environment makes it a perfect place for monkeys. Since its establishment in 1965, the monkey island has become a popular tourist destination.
