Wushi Harbor Introduction

Wushi Nose is located in Nanfangningpu Village, Changbin Township, extending into the sea as a cape. It is named for its resemblance to a person's nose protruding outward when viewed from a distance. The charming Wushi Nose features the largest columnar basalt formation in Taiwan, an exposed dark rock mass that is a product of volcanic activity and lava eruptions. The area surrounding Wushi Nose possesses a diverse intertidal ecosystem and coastal erosion topography. With rich plankton and fish in the nearby waters, it has become a paradise for rock fishing and diving along the east coast. Especially during February, the fishing season for white hair fish attracts numerous anglers lining the coast, each enjoying the pleasures of fishing.
