Shuangchun Coastal Recreational Area Introduction
Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area is an ecological recreation site located in Beimen, Tainan. The park features a mangrove observation area that encompasses four precious native mangrove species found in Taiwan: Kandelia obovata, Avicennia marina, Aegiceras corniculatum, and Sonneratia caseolaris (also known as five-leaf plums), making it suitable for families to visit and learn about Taiwan's unique ecology. Before becoming a recreational area, this location was primarily engaged in aquaculture, known as Yongchun. Later, the area expanded into two regions, inner and outer Yongchun, leading to the present "Shuangchun." The Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area is equipped with two wooden boardwalks that run between the mangroves and windbreaks, allowing visitors to closely observe wetland ecology. Apart from the mangroves, mudskippers, fiddler crabs, and waterfowl are also part of Shuangchun's charming scenery. The ecological wooden boardwalk through the mangroves creates a green tunnel atmosphere, different from the Sihcao Green Tunnel, as Shuangchun's green tunnel is land-based, allowing visitors to leisurely stroll while experiencing the romantic ambiance enveloped in greenery. Besides the mangrove ecological trail, the Shuangchun Coastal Recreation Area also boasts beautiful golden sandy beaches, where many travelers come to enjoy the spectacular sunset over the horizon. Additionally, there is a water-based stargazing camping area with pure white tents located by the seaside, offering picturesque views.
