On my first night in Green Island, I signed up for the night tour. Coach A-Ren was very patient and introduced us to some cultural attractions. We went to Guanyin Cave to pray and even saw the Black Beauty! Ahhh, I touched a frog! Although it was raining, seeing Green Island at night was still a wonderful experience... Green Island is a place that makes you feel relaxed and happy. Ahhh, I'll come again next time!

This service is great! They're very considerate and accommodating to families with children, like us. They even helped soothe the kids and thoughtfully assisted with putting on/taking off equipment and provided on-site instruction. Very attentive! We were served by a female instructor named Xiaoru, an outstanding young person who deserves encouragement. They also helped us take amazing photos and videos of the underwater scenery. Awesome!

Great! The owner is very kind. Since we couldn't ride scooters, he drove us around the island. In the evening, he even took us to find wild deer and introduced us to the local attractions. If you come to Green Island, definitely choose his place!!

They call the day before to confirm the pick-up time and location, which is really convenient. The car is clean and smoke-free. The driver's smooth driving makes for a comfortable ride. This is a very practical travel service and worth recommending.

Coach Xiao Ou was very attentive and made the whole experience more relaxing. We even saw a massive sea snake, which was very special.

Experience: You'll hike through the jungle for about 20 minutes to reach the snorkeling spot. It's a lot of fun to see the natural environment, but it is physically demanding. The instructors cheer you on with smiles, so you can somehow make it through 🤭. There are tons of fish right below the surface while snorkeling, which is super fun. And above all, jumping off the cliff is very thrilling and exhilarating ☺️. After that, you'll walk to the Sleeping Beauty spot, have a snack, and then head back through the jungle. It was the best experience ever! Instructors: A cheerful and energetic fun-loving guy, a reliable young woman, and two sea pros – these four people worked together to keep us safe.

The owner is very kind. We changed our ferry to an earlier departure on the same day, and when we arrived and contacted the owner, they immediately provided us with the scooter. The scooter was comfortable and had no issues. They also provided free helmet liners.

September marks the start of the off-season in Green Island. We happened to visit just before a typhoon, with overcast weather, which made the Blue Cave, unlit by scorching sunlight, feel even more like an ancient, tranquil underwater garden. The instructor called us the day before to inform us about the sea conditions and adjust our departure time. Since we were the only group of swimmers, the environment was comfortable and uncrowded. The instructor was also very responsible, providing detailed explanations of the things we needed to be aware of. He even lent us a camera and flashlight to explore the interior of the Blue Cave. We got so caught up in taking photos that it took Ah Shan a long time to send them to us afterward – we're very sorry about that! 😅 All in all, it was a wonderful experience.
