The implementation of the rural revitalization strategy has not only accelerated the rapid development of the rural economy in the new era but also spurred the vigorous rise of rural tourism. The growth of rural tourism has provided more livelihood opportunities for rural households, significantly boosting household economic income. This study focuses on the current livelihood status of farmers in Sanya's rural tourism areas, delving into the impact of rural tourism development on farmers' livelihood types and changes in livelihood patterns. The research reveals several challenges faced by farmers in Sanya's rural tourism areas: relatively limited livelihood types, fragile livelihood capital, traditional livelihood strategies, and unstable livelihood structures. To address these issues, the study proposes a series of solutions: diversifying livelihood types, enhancing livelihood capital, innovating livelihood strategies, and emphasizing strong government guidance. These measures aim to promote sustainable livelihood development for farmers in Sanya's rural tourism areas and support the broader rural revitalization efforts in Sanya.
