Penghu Snorklaus

This time in Penghu, we dedicated a whole day to snorkeling with Le Fu Ocean Workshop 🤿. I highly recommend them! It was absolutely worth every penny. Morning - Purple Coral Ocean Garden 🪸 Afternoon - Underwater Postbox 📭 🤿🤿🤿 🤿🤿🤿 🤿🤿🤿 🤿🤿🤿 🤿🤿 In the morning, Coach A-Yan led us to see the coral ocean garden. Coach A-Yan was very attentive and constantly checked on the participants. Even if you can't swim, there's no need to worry; the coach will guide you and even dive down to take photos for you. The corals below were vibrant and beautiful, and we were even lucky enough to see a sea turtle! Coach A-Yan also took photos and videos for us throughout the trip! 🐢🐢🐢 🐢🐢🐢 🐢🐢🐢 🐢🐢🐢 🐢🐢 In the afternoon, Coach A-Qiao led us to see the underwater postbox. Coach A-Qiao was very knowledgeable and funny. Even nervous participants didn't need to worry; the coach had a great way of making everyone relax. The interactive back-and-forth made the morning and afternoon snorkeling experiences very different. Coach A-Qiao even made a great effort to dive to the bottom and blow bubbles for photos 🤣. We also saw a stingray in the afternoon, which made the whole trip even more perfect! 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 🫧 It was truly touching to see Brother Fu mobilize all the coaches to restore the marine ecosystem. They not only restore corals but also maintain the entire underwater ecosystem, and they educate every visitor to Penghu! Thanks to Coaches A-Yan and A-Qiao for leading us, thanks to Sister Fu for the flexible itinerary adjustments, and thanks to Brother Fu for his dedication to marine ecology. I highly recommend Le Fu Ocean Workshop as your top choice for snorkeling in Penghu 🤿.

Even though the instructors are young, they are very dedicated. I hope they continue to maintain this high standard. My first diving experience was truly fantastic; the instructor was professional and meticulous. If you're visiting Penghu, choosing this place is an excellent idea! Everyone, please make sure to read the pre-trip information. Before diving, the instructor will give a lesson, so pay close attention. Underwater, the instructor even made bubble rings, which I initially thought was a new hand signal, but it turned out to be a fun little game! The overall experience was absolutely wonderful!

One of the highlights of our Penghu trip. Onboarding process was well coordinated, starting with friendly reminder messages from the staff, and the staff took the effort to check for any special considerations from us. Visited a couple of sea caves for photo points, then proceeded to Dongji island where most of the visitors got to scooter around the island. Having no motorbike licence, we were pleasantly surprised they got us a driver+buggy taking us around the scenic points on the island. We then proceeded to Jiangjun Ao island where tasty seafood porridge was served for lunch. Snorkeling gear and use instructions were provided. The afternoon was spent on water activities, snorkeling, jetski and SUP, the staff made sure to take care of safety and comfort level before engaging us on all activities. Ended with baked chicken meal. Very approachable staff, good level of upbeat interaction. Kudos to Xiao Jie, Xiao Lai, Hao hao, Da xiong & all the backend staff who just made this memorable.

The Forget-Worry Island trip truly helps you forget your worries, making it hard to leave. It's a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and commercialism. You can enjoy the sea, relax, snorkel, collect stones, watch the sunset, see a bonfire, release sky lanterns, and savor dinner and breakfast that rival high-end Western restaurants. The instructors were also incredibly attentive to everyone. Even though I was traveling alone, they made sure I felt especially cared for. I highly recommend this itinerary. I strongly suggest booking a 2-night stay; just one night would be a missed opportunity!

Vaikka sää oli pilvinen, eikä vedenalainen kuvaus ollut parasta, Lavender Secret -paikka oli todella upea. Ohjaajat olivat erittäin huomaavaisia ja ammattitaitoisia, mikä loi turvallisen tunteen. Lokkien ruokinta oli täynnä yllätyksiä. Asiakaspalvelu oli vastuullista ja kohteliasta. Koko tiimi teki ensikokemuksestani mahtavan. Seuraavan kerran kun tulen Penghuun, valitsen tämän yrityksen uudelleen. Kiitos!

Varaus oli 22.4. sukellukselle, mutta kohteeseen saavuttuamme ohjaaja arvioi, että aallokko oli liian kova ja olisi parempi siirtää kokemus seuraavalle päivälle. Onneksi 23. päivän sää oli hyvä! Ei liian kuuma eikä liian kylmä. Oli hienoa, että arviointi ja päätös tehtiin heti. Kokemus: Vaikka tämä ei ollut ensimmäinen sukellukseni, en ollut vielä täysin tottunut maskin tyhjennykseen tai hengitykseen. Ohjaaja varmisti meriveteen päästyämme, että kaikki vaiheet olivat hallussa, ennen kuin hän alkoi hitaasti viedä oppilaita alas. Tämä antoi lisäturvallisuuden tunteen! Vedenalainen maailma ei ollut kovin näkyvä, mutta oli silti jännittävää nähdä keinotekoisesti elvytettyjä värikkäitä koralleja! Kaloja oli myös melko paljon, ja pääsimme kokemaan kalojen ruokkimisen ja niiden ympäröimänä olemisen tunteen. Kaiken kaikkiaan tämä kokemus oli turvallisuuden lisäksi täynnä jännitystä ja iloa. Ohjaaja ei ollut tiukka eikä kiirehtinyt oppilaita, vaan oli erittäin kärsivällinen ja ystävällinen. Yksin tullessakaan ei tarvinnut olla liian hermostunut. Jos tulee seuraava kerta, valitsen tämän edelleen. ❤️
