Citou Village Introduction
According to surveys, the intertidal zone of the Shanyuan Sea area is home to over a hundred species of reef fish such as the drum fish and the grouper, along with many mollusks and crustaceans, making it a highly biodiverse marine area. It also boasts one of the highest coral coverage rates in Taiwan and has the largest algal reef in the eastern region. If you visit in the summer, be sure not to miss the chance to roll up your pants and stroll barefoot along the fine sandy beach, chasing the waves or enjoying the fun of building sandcastles. Visitors planning to explore this area should consider booking a guided tour in advance to systematically learn about the intertidal zone and various underwater organisms, including their names and habits. The Citao Tribe is the first Amis community along the coastline to hold a Harvest Festival. Friends wishing to experience the Harvest Festival here should pay attention to the tribe's announcements in early July to avoid missing out. 【Source: Tribal Backpacker, Taitung Tribal Tourism Guide】
