With a gentle slope and mild waves, the No.1 Bathing Beach is the best choice to spend the summertime. Visitors can sunbathe here and swim near the coast, relax by playing volleyball or running on the sand, and even dining on the beach.
In Magong, the island's Mazu temple was erected in the late 16th or early 17th century. Under Japanese ruling, the settlement was renamed Makō and organized as a subprefecture of Hōko. The settlement's temple honors the Chinese Goddess Mazu, the deified form of Lin Moniang from medieval Fujian province generally considered the oldest in Taiwan and Penghu. So if you’re looking for peace and quiet, you can check out Dadonghai Bay or Yalong Bay, this is a private section of Sanya’s pristine beach.
