What to expect
- The journey from Wu Shih Harbor to Guishan Island Pier takes approximately 30 minutes.
- For the island tour, a guide will accompany you after you disembark. The flatland tour resembles a small village, and the guide will explain the cultural history of Guishan Island, lasting approximately 1.5 hours.
- For whale watching, we will take you to the waters where whales and dolphins frequently appear, about 1 hour round trip from Guishan Island to the open sea.
- The island tour involves circumnavigating Guishan Island by boat. (The captain will decide whether to circle the entire island at once or do half-island sections depending on the wind direction.) You'll see the scenery surrounding Guishan Island, passing by the Milk Sea along the way, which takes approximately 30 minutes.
- Climbing the 401 Highland, in addition to the 1.5-hour flatland tour, involves summiting the top of Guishan Island, overlooking the entire Turtle Head and the endless beauty of the Milk Sea. The hiking portion takes approximately 3 hours round trip, with a total of 1706 steps. The guide will arrange a time to meet for the descent, so please assess your physical condition and prioritize safety.
