Jiangmei Coast Guard Station Introduction
Located in Jiangmei Village, Baisha Township, Penghu, there is a mysterious outpost in the sea next to Pingzhi Islet, where a simple square cabin stands in the middle of the ocean. During low tide, a cement path of about 300 meters connects the outpost with Jiangmei Fishing Port, but at high tide, the path is submerged and, depending on the waves, the outpost appears like an isolated island. It is said that before the construction of the Chung Cheng Yong'an Bridge, the land transportation between Baisha Township and Huxi Township had to pass through this location, and the residents needed to pay attention to the tidal schedule to cross when the tide was low. During the early days of the post-war period, when political sensitivity was high, this outpost was established to station troops responsible for checking the identification documents of passing villagers. As transportation infrastructure developed over time, the outpost lost its function, and by the 1950s, the coastal defense troops had withdrawn, leaving the outpost standing alone in the sea. In recent years, Penghu has become a popular destination for secret spots, and this location has become a hot photo spot for Instagram. However, since this secret location changes with the tide, visitors need to be mindful of the tidal times to capture the best photos. Caution is also advised when heading to the cabin, as the rapidly changing tides can lead to being trapped during high tide. 【Recommended Stay Time】 0.5 hours
