Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions are within a 20-minute drive of the homestay. First, Waiao Beach, just 10 minutes away, is Yilan’s most popular spot for beginner surfing, with soft sandy shores and consistent gentle swells that draw water sports enthusiasts year-round. Second, the iconic Turtle Island (Guishan Island), visible from the homestay on clear days, offers whale watching tours and volcanic hiking trails that depart from Toucheng Harbor, 5 minutes from 6007. Third, the historic Toucheng Old Street, 10 minutes away, is lined with century-old traditional shophouses selling Yilan specialties such as scallion pancakes, peanut ice cream rolls, and handmade mochi.

Travel Tips

Book your stay in advance, especially during summer surfing season and Yilan’s annual autumn festival, when rooms fill up fast. The homestay only accommodates Chinese speakers, so non-Chinese speaking visitors should arrange for a translator when booking. Pack layers: Yilan’s coastal climate can be cool and breezy in the evenings even in summer, and sudden afternoon rain showers are common year-round. Bring reef-safe sunscreen if you plan to go snorkeling off the coast, and don’t forget to stock up on Yilan’s famous green scallion snacks to enjoy a barbecue at the homestay’s facilities during your stay.
