Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area Introduction
Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area is an ecological recreation site located in Beimen, Tainan. The park features a mangrove observation area that houses four precious native mangrove species in Taiwan: Kandelia obovata, Aegiceras corniculatum, Bruguiera gymnorhiza, and Rhizophora stylosa (also known as five-leaf mangrove), making it suitable for families with children to learn about Taiwan's unique ecology. Before becoming a recreational area, this location primarily focused on fish pond farming and was known as Yongchun; later, the area expanded into two parts, Inner Yongchun and Outer Yongchun, giving rise to today’s "Shuangchun." The Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area features two wooden boardwalks extending north and south, situated between the mangrove forest and windbreak forest, allowing visitors to closely observe wetland ecology. In addition to the mangroves, the charming sights of mudskippers, fiddler crabs, and water birds contribute to Shuangchun's allure. The mangrove ecological boardwalk immerses visitors in a green tunnel; unlike the Sicao Green Tunnel, Shuangchun's green tunnel is land-based, allowing travelers to leisurely stroll through and experience the romantic atmosphere embraced by lush greenery. Besides the mangrove ecological trail, the Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area also boasts beautiful golden sandy beaches, where many travelers enjoy the spectacular sunset scenery at dusk. There is also a water starry sky camping area, with pure white tents set along the seaside, creating picturesque views.
