- Itinerary -
． Longpan Park Longpan Scenic Area is located on the Hengchun Peninsula in Pingtung County, about 40.5 kilometers from the Ejia Highway. It is an uplifted limestone plateau. In addition to the well-developed limestone karst landforms - collapsed cliffs, seepage holes, and limestone caves, most of the landscape here is grassland plant landscape under the influence of the northeast monsoon, with a very broad view. You can overlook the winding coastline and steep cliffs in the distance. In the morning you can enjoy the colorful clouds at sunrise. As there is no light pollution, it is also a good place for stargazing.
． Eluanbi Eluanbi is located at the southernmost tip of the plateau at the end of the Central Mountain Range. The Eluanbi Lighthouse is 21.4 meters high and is the most majestic of the lighthouses around Taiwan. It is honored as the "Light of East Asia" and has been listed as a historic site preservation area. Eluanbi Park is a coral reef limestone terrain with unique geographical landscape, strange rocks, huge reefs, caves, and rich flora and fauna. Every September, flocks of red-tailed shrikes fly over the area, creating a spectacular scene that often attracts a large number of bird lovers to come and appreciate it.
． There is a giant reef standing alone on the coast between Kenting and Eluanbi. It looks like a sailboat in the distance, or like a sloop sailing out to sea. It is extremely spectacular, so this place is called Sail Rock. Sail Rock is about 18 meters high. It is an old coral reef that rolled down from the nearby platform to the seaside. Because its rock quality is harder than the nearby initially raised coral reefs, it was exposed after other coral reefs were eroded and stands on the sea. This can be proved by other huge coral reefs that can be seen from the platform.
． Shell Sand Island is the purest shell beach among all the beaches in Hengchun Peninsula. Most of it contains shell sand and star sand, with calcium carbonate as high as 98%. In the early days, because they were not protected, they were often taken away in bags, or even shipped out in trucks for sale, causing serious damage. In order to protect this world-class beach, it has been listed as a protected area and tourists are prohibited from going down to the beach. However, the Kenting National Park Management Office built a small shell sand exhibition hall so that tourists can still see the former beauty of Shell Sand Island.
． The National Museum of Marine Biology and Aquarium is located in Checheng Township, Pingtung County, on the coast at the foot of Guishan Mountain in the northwest corner of Kenting National Park. It is surrounded by mountains and the sea, and its mission is to maintain and preserve the intact island and marine ecological environment. The entire area covers a total of approximately 60 hectares, and the main facilities can be divided into three exhibition halls: Taiwan Waters Hall, Coral Kingdom Hall, and World Waters Hall. The exhibition content is quite rich and diverse, and it is definitely worth a visit.
． Hongchaikeng Semi-Submarine Hongchaikeng is located in the first village on the way to the western coast in Hengchun Town. It is a small seaside port. The Little Dolphin semi-submarine is located in this fishing port. The sailing waters are mainly Hongchaikeng and Wanlitong, which are very popular diving spots with rich marine life. Through the specially designed sightseeing semi-submarine, you can easily see the underwater scenery.
・White Sand Bay The White Sand Bay in Kenting National Park is a shell beach composed of the shells of marine organisms. It is about 500 meters long and 40 meters wide, with uniform sand and bright crystal clear. The whole year is suitable for marine activities such as swimming, diving, sailing, and jet skiing. The most special thing is that this is the beach where the movie Cape No. 7 - Ajia hugged the heroine, and it was also the place where Tiger went ashore in Life of Adrift, attracting quite a number of tourists to take photos here.
． Maobitou "Maobitou" is the dividing point between the Taiwan Strait and the Bashi Strait. It has been eroded by waves, reverse sand drilling and dissolution for a long time. It is a typical coral reef coastal erosion landform with unique landscapes such as potholes, reef pillars, and interlayer caves. This area has world-class beach rock terrain and has been designated as a special scenic area of the national park's sea area.
． Sunset at Guanshan Guanshan, also known as Gaoshanyan, is composed of raised coral reefs with an altitude of about 152 meters. The view from the top of the mountain is wide. Looking north, you can see the complete cross-section of the large flat-topped sloping terrace (188 meters high) and the charming scenery of the fishing villages along the way. To the east, you can see the beautiful scenery of Longluan Lake and Nanwan-Eluanbi, which is an excellent place to view and watch the sunset in Kenting National Park.
