Doufu Cape Scenic Area

Yilan Attractions

Doufu Cape Scenic Area Introduction

On the eastern side of Nanfang'ao Fishing Port, connected by Lian Island and Lian Island Sandbar, it is also known as "Shajing Cape," the largest sandbar formation in Taiwan. The arched inlet faces the ocean, with rocks resembling tofu, hence the name Tofu Cape. Along the coastal trail, various facilities have been planned for visitors to enjoy. The bay is also a great spot for water activities and snorkeling, with the nearby Biji Mountain featuring steep cliffs and abundant fish resources, attracting many anglers. Tofu Cape faces east and is an excellent spot to witness the dawn; the sunrise brings brilliant hues, while the sunset offers a picturesque view of fishing boats returning home. Protected by a breakwater, the waves are calm, making it easy to dive into the colorful world of Tofu Cape with a coach, allowing for close encounters with marine ecology and enjoying the delightful experience of fish swimming amidst the coral reefs. Tofu Cape also offers a new water activity, Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP), which is easier to learn than surfing. It consists of a large surfboard and a paddle that is taller than the person using it, an extension of surfing activities. When engaging in water activities, it is advisable to hire a coach familiar with the terrain and sea conditions to ensure safety while having fun.
