Ferry from Fugang harbor to a small volcanic island with a 16 km ring road, coral reefs and the Zhaori seawater hot spring - an alternative to the coastal drive above.
Pro Tips
- β’About 15 min from Taitung to Fugang harbor, then a 50 min crossing
- β’Departures around 07:30/09:30/11:30/13:30/15:30, last boat back 16:30
- β’Zhaori hot spring opens 05:00-10:00 and 16:00-23:00, so it does not fit a day trip
- β’Scooters need a motorcycle licence
- β’Ferries cancel in rough sea - book on ferry.tw 3-5 days ahead
