Keeling Island Introduction

- Attraction Introduction - From Keelung City, the northern coast, and even the northeastern coast, the silhouette of "Keelung Islet," a small island located off the coast of Keelung, is often visible from a distance. Once a military restricted area, it has now opened for tourism and has become a popular destination for many seeking an offshore getaway. A boat ride from Bisha Fishing Port takes about half an hour, and stepping onto the island reveals a calming view where the sea meets the sky, accompanied by the salty sea breeze and the sound of waves, providing instant relaxation. It is a perfect place to slow down and fully experience the purity and tranquility of the island. - Attraction Features - Keelung Islet is a small island formed by underwater volcanic eruptions. Although it has a limited area, it boasts diverse plant life and stunning mountain-sea scenery. The most famous feature on the island is the Mountain-Sea Trail, which gently ascends along steps. Along the way, you can enjoy breathtaking cliff views of the sea and catch a glimpse of the unique scenery of "Keelung Sea Cliff." On clear days, even Taipei 101 can be seen clearly! If hiking isn't your thing, you can take a leisurely walk along the coastal trail to capture beautiful photos, experiencing different views from approaching, circumnavigating, and reaching the top of the island. Professional guides will explain the beauty of Keelung Islet. - Recommended Activities - Keelung Islet is only open for landings in specific months each year, so it is advisable to arrange your itinerary and book boat tickets in advance to successfully witness the island's beauty. The main activities on the island include "island landing," "island circumnavigation," and "tower climbing," with an estimated time of 2.5 to 3 hours depending on physical fitness and preferences. Itinerary A - Keelung Islet Three-in-One: landing on the islet + circumnavigation + tower climbing, completing the entire island trail, offering a 360-degree view of the sea and harbor, is the most popular route. Itinerary B - Keelung Islet + Blue Highway: landing + Tidal Blue Highway (landing + circumnavigation + Elephant Trunk Rock + Chieftain Rock): combines the Tidal Blue Highway itinerary, allowing for visits to Elephant Trunk Rock, Chieftain Rock, and other coastal erosion landscapes in the northeastern corner. Itinerary C - Keelung Islet Three-in-One + Tidal Blue Highway (landing + circumnavigation + tower climbing + Elephant Trunk Rock + Chieftain Rock): a deep exploration plan that includes a full-walk of Keelung Islet along with the Blue Highway route, capturing both offshore beauty and geological wonders at once. Regardless of the chosen activity, don't forget to apply sunscreen and bring enough water. The onboard guide will share natural and historical stories about the island along the way, enriching the journey.
