Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions are all within a 30-minute drive of the homestay:

• Hengchun Old Town: Just 5 minutes away, this is Taiwan’s best-preserved 19th-century walled town. Wander intact historic gates, browse local handicraft stalls, and sample street food classics like crispy oyster omelets and fresh mango shaved ice for an authentic taste of local life.
• Baisha Bay: 15 minutes from the homestay, this quiet stretch of powdery white sand and calm turquoise water is far less crowded than central Kenting Beach, ideal for swimming, sunbathing, or casual coastal picnics.
• Eluanbi Lighthouse: 25 minutes away, this iconic landmark marks Taiwan’s southernmost point. Walk the cliffside coastal trails, photograph the striking white lighthouse against the Pacific, and catch a golden sunset for an unforgettable Kenting memory.

Travel Tips

Additional towels and bed linens incur an extra charge, so pack your own if you’re staying multiple days. Non-Chinese speaking travelers should download a translation app before arrival. The homestay fills up quickly during peak season (June–August, major Taiwanese national holidays), so book at least two months in advance. Renting a scooter or car is the easiest way to explore Kenting, and Beileye’s free parking makes this incredibly convenient.
