Linshanbi Cape is a rocky area on the south side of Baishawan Beach. Here you can find great views of the surrounding area, volcanic rock formations, as well as a variety of marine life. It is a great place to connect with nature along Taiwan's North Coast.
Background: "Linshanbi is a cape located next to Baishawan (White Sand Bay) to the west of Fuguei Cape, which is the northernmost point of Taiwan. It rises about 30 meters above the sea. Kike Fuguei Cape, Linshanbi has an abundance of andesite, evidence of volcanic eruption in the distant past. A circular rock formation at the northern edge of the cape looks natural but is actually a fish trap built by fishermen in early times. Fish and shrimp that enter the trap at high tide are captured in the trap when the tidal waters recede, leaving a wide variety of marine life for viewing fish, shrimp, crabs, snails, chitons, and anemones. This is a veritable classroom for teaching children to know sea life." Price: Free Parking: There is paid parking nearby.

There are some steps leading up to Linshanbi Cape from the south side of Baisahwan Beach.
There is a fake chapel-like structure here that you can take photos with. You may notice similar church structures around Taiwan; apparently, Taiwanese people think it is a romantic place to take a photo. Like for giving off a wedding-type feel?
Some more fake backdrops for photos.
On the Southwest there is a paid parking lot and an abandoned building that was once a main bus terminal for Aloha Bus. Now it is being renovated into a restaurant. Now it is being renovated into a beach cafe?
The old bus station, including bus schedules and time tables.
Another place to shower and get some snacks on the southwestern side of the beach, next to the paid parking lot. However during my last visit in 2023 I noticed they were not in business. I am not sure if they are closed for good or not.
If you go a little further down the beach, you will run across the semi-abandoned Harbor City complex 海灣城市.

Author 作家I am an American expat who has extensive experience living, working, and traveling in Taiwan. In my day, I had to learn many things about Taiwan the hard way. But I have come to learn that Taiwan is one of the best places in the world for Foreigners to live. This blog does not represent the opinions of every foreigner in Taiwan. I am just trying to help others learn more about this beautiful country. Categories
