Green Island|Days Surrounded by the Wind

A trip to an offshore island reminds you what it means to be "embraced by nature." Green Island is truly one of Taiwan's freest corners. 🚤 Departing from Fugang Harbor in Taitung, the sea breeze and waves leave the city's rhythm behind. As soon as you step off the boat, you're greeted by the island's intense sunlight, salty sea air, and the omnipresent sound of scooters. On this small island, scooters take center stage, and time slows down just perfectly. 📍Day 1 ✔️ Take a ride around the island (it only takes 30 minutes, but you'll keep stopping to admire the views) ✔️ Soak in the world's only "underwater hot spring" at Zhaori Hot Spring while gazing at the sea—it's incredibly soothing ✔️ Join a nighttime guided tour to hear ecological stories that can't be seen during the day 📍Day 2 ✔️ Go snorkeling in the morning to explore the underwater world, with dense coral reefs and even encounters with sea turtles! 🐢 ✔️ Enjoy a bowl of steaming Green Island venison noodles for lunch, paired with dried flying fish as a side dish—absolutely delicious ✔️ Spend the afternoon at the Green Island Human Rights Cultural Park, shifting from relaxation to reflection. The prison walls and stories of political victims make you rethink the meaning of freedom 🌴 Every turn brings surprises: Pug Rock, Sleeping Beauty Rock, Sail Nose Rock... Every stretch of sea is like a painter's palette. Just ease up on the scooter throttle, and you'll see the gentle side of Green Island. — 📝 Tips: ✔ The boat ride can cause seasickness, so bring motion sickness medication ✔ Check the tide schedule for Zhaori Hot Spring in advance to avoid disappointment ✔ Protect yourself from the sun and wind while riding around the island—the wind is strong! ✔ Keep a respectful distance from sea turtles and avoid touching them—it’s the best way to show respect — Green Island taught me: Sometimes, slowing down allows you to discover the direction of the wind, the depth of the sea, and yourself.
