Nearby Attractions

Three unmissable Penghu sights are all within a 20-minute drive of the homestay:

• Penghu Great Bridge: The iconic 2.5-kilometer cross-sea bridge connecting Magong Island and Xiyu Island offers unbeatable coastal views. Walk or bike along the path at low tide to see dramatic volcanic rock formations and watch fishing boats glide across the bay.
• Central Street (Magong Old Street): Penghu’s oldest commercial street, just 10 minutes from the homestay, is lined with century-old shrines, traditional snack stalls, and blue stone alleyways. Don’t miss trying local specialties like crispy cactus ice cream and oyster omelets here.
• Whale Cave: A natural sea-eroded arch on the north coast of Xiyu, this dramatic geological formation offers spectacular views at sunset, when golden light filters through the arch to illuminate the turquoise water below.

Travel Tips

Since the homestay does not provide Wi-Fi, download offline maps and attraction guides before you arrive. If you’re traveling in peak summer (June to August), book your room at least one month in advance, as family rooms fill up quickly. Book your paid massage at check-in to secure your preferred time after a day of sightseeing. Finally, Penghu’s best weather is from April to October, but be sure to pack sunscreen and a hat to protect against strong coastal sun, even on cloudy days.
