Jibei Island Introduction
Jibei Island is located about 5.5 kilometers north of Baisha Island. It is the largest island in the northern seas of Penghu and a popular destination for water activities during the summer. The island features a topography that is high in the east and low in the west, composed of beaches and sandbars formed by marine accumulation, making it the most famous natural landscape on the island. The formation of the Jibei sandbar is the result of coastal erosion caused by ocean currents, waves, and tides, which transports fallen rock debris and gravel to suitable locations for accumulation, extending into the sea and creating beaches that stretch thousands of meters outward, covered in golden sand. The area not only borders a stunning azure coastline but also features green coastal vegetation, creating breathtaking scenery. From an aerial perspective, the color of the water transitions from light blue to deep blue, harmonizing beautifully with the golden sandy beach, attracting many water sports enthusiasts. Jibei Island is also known as the hometown of stone weirs, with over eighty fishing stone weirs built around the area, constituting one-seventh of the total in Penghu County. There is a Jibei Stone Weir Culture Museum located next to the visitor service center, which is divided into an outdoor stone weir art area and an indoor exhibition area, showcasing Jibei's stone weir culture in various forms. If you visit Jibei Island, you are welcome to have a look and enrich your travel experience.
