Sanya, Hainan, China

1997

Michael S. Yamashita

"The tide is out for the owners of these boats in the city of Sanya.
Like many small fishermen, they are left with dwindling catches near
shore as larger boats pursue fish with sonar and bigger nets."

--From "South China Sea: Crossroads of Asia," December 1998, National
Geographic magazine
