Penghu Island Hopping: Qimei Island Day Trip (Optional Qimei Island Sightseeing Bus, Moon Bay Snorkeling, and Canoe Experience)

Excellent Experience with Beautiful Coral and Great Guides I had a really good experience on this tour, which featured beautiful coral, knowledgeable coaches and guides, and a seamless process. Please note that the entire tour is conducted in Chinese. Our guide, "Tu Dou" (Potato), contacted me the day before via text and email to remind me of the meeting location and offer tips to prevent seasickness. Here's a rough itinerary for the bus tour and snorkeling, as it was initially unclear to me: 7:20 AM: Arrive at Nanhai Visitor Center. Exchange Klook voucher for ferry and bus tickets at the "Jin Ba Da" counter. Meet Potato for further instructions.7:35 AM: Begin boarding the ferry.8:00 AM: Ferry to Qimei departs.9:15 AM: Arrive at Qimei. Meet Potato at the pier and board the bus to a less crowded bathroom.9:30 AM: Short bus ride from the bathroom to the snorkeling spot.Snorkeling Schedule: After a 10-15 minute wait for other tourists (arriving on scooters) and another 15-20 minutes to change into snorkeling gear, the coaches teach you how to use the equipment and then take you to the coral reefs. At the reefs, each coach oversees 8-10 people, who hold onto lifebuoys or each other while the coach guides you through the water. The coral is abundant and beautiful. Coaches take pictures and provide bread to feed the fish.11:30 AM: Bus back to the pier for lunch (my only complaint is that there's not enough time for a substantial meal).12:00 PM: Transfer to a larger tour bus with other tourists, which takes you to Qimei's attractions: Seven Beauties Tomb, Great Stone Lion Recreational Area (try the conch here; it's very delicious), Little Taiwan, and Twin Hearts Stone Weir. Spend 15-30 minutes at each site, which is ample time to explore.2:00 PM: Return to the pier.2:10 PM: Board the ferry.2:20 PM: Ferry departs back to Magong.3:30 PM: Ferry arrives in Magong.If this is your first time snorkeling, you will feel very supported by the coaches. However, if you are already experienced, you might find the coaches' guidance a bit restrictive. Additionally, the bus tour is structured, so you might not feel as free. Next time, I plan to rent scooters for more flexibility.

Qimei Island boasts beautiful scenery and numerous famous tourist attractions. I truly feel that taking a tour bus is comfortable and safe. The driver provides free guided tours of Twin Heart Stone Weir, Little Taiwan, and the Dak Shyr Long Cheng scenic area. Additionally, the Yuehli Bay diving experience is fantastic, with professional and attentive instructors. The children had a blast and were extremely happy.

It was a very fulfilling day trip, and the tour guide was excellent! 👍👍👍 The snorkeling instructor even helped take many photos, which were all uploaded for us to download ourselves. 👍

The passenger boat was clean and comfortable 👍🏼. You absolutely must come to Qimei for snorkeling at least once in your life 😊. It's incredibly beautiful and makes you feel so relaxed! The snorkeling instructor even helps take gorgeous photos!! After snorkeling, eating the pork bone soup on shore is truly amazing 😋. Afterward, riding a scooter to tour the island and see the Twin-Hearts Stone Weir, Little Taiwan, and many other natural attractions is definitely worth the price of admission!

The entire snorkeling activity takes careful consideration to protect the personal safety of the participants. Professionals will guide the entire activity and pay attention to the conditions of all participants at all times to ensure the smooth progress of the activity.

A well arranged itinerary to spend a day at the island. The snorkel experience was great.

The sun is indeed very bright during summer vacation, so it is right to choose to take a guided tour. Although the time spent at each scenic spot is very short, it is enough to take pictures. The tour guide will tell jokes to make those of us who are still dizzy after taking the boat feel relaxed. We did the guided tour first and then the snorkeling schedule was really good. For lunch, we would also recommend that you don’t order too much because the food in Qimei is a big plate. If you can’t finish it, it will be a waste. If you don’t save money, don’t waste it. It’s a great snorkeling experience. There is also a dedicated tour guide to help take care of things. I originally bought a waterproof bag for going into the water, but I won’t use it at all now. So if you buy this set, you can go into the water without worrying about your phone and wallet. Question!

The boat instructions were clear, the itinerary was smooth, the tour guide was enthusiastic, the weather and corals in Qimei were beautiful, the Cp value was high and you can return for a deeper tour👍

The wind and waves are very strong, seasickness medicine is completely needed, very important! The snorkeling on Qimei Island is very recommended. As soon as you step into the sea and look down, you will see many small fish and many beautiful corals, which are worth seeing. Before setting off for a free tour on the island, the coach also reminded us of the time to see the Double Heart Stone (the tide is low so we won’t be submerged in the sea water), which was very considerate.

There were a lot of people but the overall experience was good. Remember to take seasickness medicine. The voyage was a bit far. The snorkeling spot was beautiful and there were a lot of corals.
