Things to do in Hengchun

Shuangliu National Park offers a waterfall trail approximately 4 kilometers long. The impressive waterfall makes it a great place to escape the summer heat and enjoy a hike. During our island-wide trip, Taitung was incredibly hot, so we stopped at this attraction for a visit and found it very refreshing. It's highly recommended.

Because the tide time was at 2:00 PM, but we wanted to plan an evening itinerary, we changed it to a night tour to see sika deer. We saw so many of them and were completely amazed! The whole tour took close to three hours, but mostly we were in the vehicle and didn't need to walk around much.

Today, it was just our family of four and an elderly couple on the tour. However, the staff's detailed explanations and enthusiastic service made this trip incredibly satisfying. If possible, I would definitely participate in this activity again in the future.

The coach explained everything very carefully, which made it a wonderful experience for us as first-time snorkelers. The children also had a blast, constantly exclaiming at the diverse and rich marine life they saw. We were incredibly lucky to even spot a green sea turtle!

The instructor was very patient and friendly, explaining in detail how to use the SUP. We didn't need to exert much effort while snorkeling either. The entire experience lasted over three hours, and I highly recommend it to everyone visiting Kenting!

The service was friendly and I was able to use translation apps to communicate. The facilities were somewhat dated, but once you get comfortable in the hot springs you will forget all about it!

Parking fees are an additional $50 per single entry. There are dining areas throughout the museum where you can bring your own food, or you can purchase food from the museum's restaurants or stalls! The museum offers a lot, including a schedule of activities you can participate in. The children had a great time, and we recommend allocating about 4-5 hours for your visit!

I was a little worried because there were no Korean reviews, so I went alone. First of all, they spoke English perfectly and were incredibly kind. They even offered to retrieve my phone if I dropped it, and explained everything in detail from start to finish! Instructor Yuki checked everything related to safety one by one, which made the experience really enjoyable. I was so grateful for the photos, 1:1 instruction, and care provided for this price. Usually, the snorkeling I've experienced was just being handed goggles and told to go play, but here, if you swallowed water, the instructor would ask if you were okay and even explain each fish. If you're Korean, just book here, no questions asked. Highly recommended!!

Such a great experience, lovely and passionate people running the tour and despite the language barrier they were very patient, attentive and friendly. The instructor initially pulls you around when you are attatched to a float to show you to the reef and make sure you can use your snorkling equipment correctly; then you are able to explore for yourself. So many beautiful fish, not invasive to the environment (marine protected area) and a highlight was seeing a turtle. They even take a few pictures for you and upload to their Facebook for you to download.
