The Crescent Moon-shaped Liyu Bay is a natural small cove and was the earliest port for fishermen in Qimei Island to engage in nearshore operations. Today, a small area on the south side has been developed into a simple "Liyu Port." The beach of Liyu Bay, made of white coral fragments, is not only the only bathing area in Qimei but also highly suitable for snorkeling activities. The nearby basalt terrain is well-developed, featuring spectacular and diverse arrangements of columnar basalt in horizontal, radiating, and interlaced formations; coastal erosion landforms are visible everywhere.

Yueyawan Recreation Area Introduction

The crescent-shaped Yue Li Bay is a natural small cove and was the earliest fishing port for fishermen from Qimei Island’s coastal operations. Currently, only a small area on the south side has been developed into a simple "Yue Port." The beach at Yue Li Bay, made up of white coral fragments, is not only the only swimming area in Qimei but also offers excellent conditions for snorkeling. The nearby basalt terrain is exceptionally developed, featuring spectacular and diverse formations of columnar basalt that are horizontal, radial, and interwoven; coastal erosion features are also commonly seen. Recommended activities include stargazing at night, evening barbeque, and snorkeling in the afternoon to admire the stunning coral formations. These are the three main activities in the Yue Li swimming area, complemented by complete facilities for camping, including pavilions and restrooms, making it the best camping area in Qimei.
