[2025 Pingtung Attraction] Travel Guide for Lambai Island (Updated Jan)

Arriving at Xiao Liuqiu in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, I specifically came to enjoy the sunset. I chose to go to 'Beauty Cave,' which is an excellent spot to watch the sunset. Riding an electric scooter along the winding path, the coconut trees swayed in the wind, and the waves gently lapped against the shore, giving me an unparalleled sense of relaxation. Upon arrival, the sun had already begun to slowly set, and the clouds on the horizon were dyed golden and orange, like a dreamy painting. Standing on the rocks, I quietly admired this spectacular view. The sun slowly sank below the sea level, and the golden shimmering sea surface was like a mirror, reflecting the changing colors. Watching the sun finally disappear below the horizon, I couldn't help but feel that such a beautiful scene is truly precious. 🌅🏝️✨

Little Liuqiu is a beautiful island in Taiwan, known for its clear waters and relaxed atmosphere. From Kaohsiung, it takes about an hour to drive to Donggang Pier, and then less than 30 minutes by ferry to Little Liuqiu, making it very convenient. **Transportation** First, it takes about an hour to drive from Kaohsiung to Donggang Pier. You can take a ferry to Little Liuqiu from either Lianchitan Pier or Caoya Pier in Kaohsiung. The ferry ride takes about 30 to 40 minutes, offering stunning sea views along the way. **Must-Do Activities** Upon arriving at Little Liuqiu, it's recommended to rent a scooter or an electric bike (if the scooter needs to carry two people, one must have a driver's license). This makes it easy to explore the island's beautiful spots. Start by visiting the famous "Flower Vase Rock," known for its unique natural rock formations, perfect for photos. Next, head to "Beauty Cave," where you can marvel at the spectacular sea caves and the stunning blue waters. **Food Recommendations** Don't forget to try the local cuisine in Little Liuqiu! Hong Mama's Breakfast Shop is famous for its popular queue-worthy dish, Acacia Noodles. Coffee lovers must visit Sunset Coffee, and don't miss the limited-edition Tadpole Cheese Pancakes.

#closetonature #100waysoftravel #taiwan I recently had an incredible diving experience at Lambai Island that truly connected me with nature. The underwater world was breathtaking, filled with vibrant coral reefs and a diverse array of marine life. Swimming alongside a graceful sea turtle was a highlight; its serene movements made me feel completely at peace. The clarity of the water allowed me to appreciate the intricate details of the coral formations, each teeming with colorful fish. Being surrounded by such beauty was both humbling and exhilarating. This experience reaffirmed my love for the ocean and deepened my appreciation for marine conservation. If you’re looking to immerse yourself in nature, diving in Lambai Island is an unforgettable adventure that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and inspired. #diving #sea #world #nature #love_nature

#100 Ways to Travel Address: No. 5-20, Zhongshan Road, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan 929 Atmosphere/Facilities: Very crowded, air-conditioned, cash only Features: Xiaolongbao, fried rice, fried pork ribs Price per person: 90 yuan Rating: When I first visited the store, I was a little hesitant to eat Xiao Long Bao in such hot weather. But I arrived just in time and there was a seat just as the doors opened. Although the store does not have exquisite decoration, it is clean and bright overall, and the seats are not too crowded. The walkway is also quite spacious. After placing the order, only cash is accepted for payment at the counter. When placing the order, it feels similar to the meal ordered at Din Tai Fung. But the price is very affordable. Signature soup dumplings, 90 yuan, 7 pieces per box, normal soup dumpling size. The soup is very full and hot right out of the oven. It's delicious, but be careful not to burn your mouth when eating. Scallion and egg fried rice 90 yuan This is a personal preference. The simple egg fried rice is sprinkled with salt and chopped green onion. The overall seasoning is moderate and not greasy. The rice retains moisture and is not too dry. You can taste the original flavor of the eggs and chopped green onion. It's the most delicious dish. Fragrant Pork Ribs NT$100. I don’t know when I started eating egg fried rice and fried pork ribs as a combo. The fried pork ribs performed generally and tasted dry. The kimchi next to it performed better. Shrimp in Red Oil Chaoshou 100 yuan, five pieces in a portion, each one has a large shrimp. The filling is very filling and the portion is generous. However, the wonton wrappers were overcooked and the seasoning was not focused. You had to go to the seasoning section to adjust your taste. It's the worst performer. Seasonal side dishes 45 yuan. Take them from the refrigerator after checkout. I chose cucumbers, which are refreshing and garlicky.

Taiwan is a beautiful place, and Xiaoliuqiu has become my favorite in recent years. I love its nature and marine life. There are very large green sea turtles, as well as starfish, sea hares, corals, and a rich variety of fish, including everyone's favorites, Dory and Nemo! I didn't see them when I snorkeled at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, but this time I was able to witness them with my own eyes. It was my first time visiting a Taiwanese island like Xiaoliuqiu, and I had no idea how beautiful their ocean was. Of course, I don't know how to dive, but snorkeling and joining the coastal ecology tour were also a lot of fun. I started my journey from Kaohsiung to Xiaoliuqiu, first taking a car to Donggang Wharf and then a thirty-minute boat ride. If you're like me and don't know how to ride an electric scooter or bike, you'll have to rely on the island's only taxi. However, staying at a B&B near the pier is also very convenient. Besides playing with green sea turtles and fish, the island also has romantic beach bars and high-quality coffee shops to choose from. Additionally, Xiaoliuqiu has various attractions like Vase Rock and the lighthouse. If possible, watching the sunrise and sunset is also very romantic. Spending two or three leisurely days in Xiaoliuqiu is a great choice.

#myhiddengems Amazing view resort-style decoration and super nice staffs, you can order a nice cup of coffee or any drinks you like, and have a good spot sitting and viewing the sea. The quality of the meals and drinks we ordered was very good. Both the appearance and taste of this cafe are of a very high standard. It is definitely worth to go if you are in Xiao liuqui, it is very suitable for people who are used to putting their mobile phones first yet also for photography lover having great time taking photos as the area are well decorated! #island #100waysoftravel #cafe #afternoontea #taiwantrip

Little Ryukyu is very suitable for renting a battery car, or a motorcycle, but my main purpose is to dive, so I didn't rent it. Overall, its really appropriate to have a small Ryukyu arrival fee, and its really beautiful as the only coral reef in Taiwan, and you can see the green turtle at close range, because there is a reef for it. Seaweed, so it is not easy to see it at close range. Small Ryukyu is a small island of bullets. It is not only geologically poor, but also has a lack of water. In the past, it was a wild land, and the forests were devastated. The development of the small ball, the movement of the Han people, and the activities of the fishermen are concerned. Because of the Taiwanese fishing industry in the Ming Dynasty, the livelihood of the coastal residents of southern Fujian is more profitable.

#newyearnewtrip #travelanywhere #seascapes I stumbled upon Liuqiu, or Lambai Island, during a spontaneous getaway and quickly discovered why it’s a well-kept secret in Taiwan’s travel scene. Nestled in Pingtung County, this quiet, remote island offers everything you need for a serene retreat—pristine shell-sand beaches, charming villages, and hiking trails that weave through lush landscapes. My personal highlight? Kayaking along the crystal-clear waters and spotting sea turtles up close! If you’re looking to escape the crowds, Liuqiu is the perfect sanctuary. It’s small, but the tranquility here is unmatched. For an unforgettable experience, rent a scooter to explore hidden spots like the Black Devil Cave and the stunning Vase Rock. My tip: bring comfortable shoes for the hikes and swimwear for spontaneous dips in the turquoise waters! Trust me, this is a place where nature’s beauty unfolds at every turn.

After eating a delicious lunch, they were riding on the island when they suddenly saw someone in front of them. Two young women, visually estimated to be about 20 years old (tourists from Hong Kong), were not very good at riding electric bikes... One of them, a younger sister, actually fell down while riding the bike in front of us... So we quickly got off the car to help. Originally, my name was Geng Ge Dai. The lady went to the health center to apply medicine, and I rode her electric bike there. His brother shyly said to me at the scene: I dare not wear that lady’s, and she was also wearing a white skirt, so our roles were reversed. I took the sister, and then Brother Geng followed us on his sister's electric bike. Afterwards, I said to him: Aren't you an ambulance worker? Also, it doesn’t matter the patient’s age and clothing... Will this have any impact on the rescue? I also told him: If the patient today was a handsome young man, I would take the initiative to drive him to the hospital and ask him to hold his sister's waist... Haha...

#100 Ways to Travel Address: No. 1, Xinyi Road, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan 929 Atmosphere/Facilities: Small round area on the first floor, dining tables on the second floor, open air-conditioning, small dining seats Features: Aiyu, fruit ice Price per person: 70 yuan Rating: The famous ice cream shop in Xiaoliuqiu is famous for its turtle-shaped jade. The decoration is common in online beauty stores in island countries. The second floor of an independent building is decorated in pure white and decorated with local turtle patterns. The minimum purchase is NT$70 per person, and the main items are Aiyu Ice, drinks, and sparkling drinks. Cash only is accepted. On the first floor, in addition to the open work area for ordering food, there is also a row of small round tables that are perfect for taking photos and checking in. The location is very cramped. There is a slightly larger table and chair area on the second floor, but it's not that big. Improved table turnover rate and shortened waiting time when seats are full. The rushed feel is at odds with the interior of the store and the laid-back atmosphere of the place. Pink Round Lemon Aiyu 80 Yuan Special turtle-shaped Aiyu, tastes just like Lemon Aiyu. Sweet and sour taste, slightly sour and low in sweetness. Small pink balls. Mulberry Aiyu 90 yuan is also a turtle-shaped Aiyu. The taste of mulberry jam does not match the syrup and Aiyu very well.

#100 Ways to Travel Address: No. 172-6, Zhongzheng Road, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan 929 Atmosphere/Facilities: Roadside BBQ, takeout only, cash only, business hours vary Features: Fried first and then grilled, recommended Qilixiang, chicken wings, handmade rice blood. Price per person: 200 yuan Rating: This roadside barbecue is open only in the evening and will be closed from time to time. Only one elusive barbecue restaurant has earned the title. The opening time is around 6pm. We met this time around seven o'clock. As soon as we arrived at the stall, we heard a young man complaining that he had sold out twice and had to buy it this time. Later, he was followed by an old man who came to replenish some. He felt that he was a nearby resident. The ordering method is very simple. Since everyone is waiting in line for the barbecue, the boss will inform you of the waiting time before ordering. After selecting the skewers, leave your phone number at checkout. When you can pick up the meal, you will be notified by phone without waiting on site. The average price of kebabs ranges from 20 to 50 yuan, although there are also kebabs with a slightly higher unit price. The price is not much different from ordinary barbecue stalls, but the meat portions are large and thick. Especially the chicken wings are quite plump with Qilixiang. The various types of meat skewers are also very large. The barbecue is first fried and then grilled. The sauce is fresh and sweet with a hint of lemon juice, which is very suitable for the hot Xiaoliuqiu. Personal recommendations: Qilixiang, chicken wings, handmade sweet and spicy.

#100 Ways to Travel Address: No. 58-1, Zhongshan Road, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan 929 Atmosphere/Facilities: Air-conditioning, self-service drinks, decorated hot stir-fry shop Features: Honeycomb shrimp, boiled shrimp, fried ghost head knife Price per person: 400 yuan Rating: Xiaoliuqiu’s old hot stir-fry restaurant, known as the state banquet chef’s menu. The signboard is clearly opposite the T-intersection of the FamilyMart convenience store on Lao Cai. The air-conditioned open environment in the store is very clean and the dining environment is good. The tabletop retains the round table with hot stir-fry characteristics. Most of the dishes are available in small and large portions and are cash transactions. Honeycomb Shrimp (Small) NT$300 Gaoji’s signature dish, it is said to be the originator of this dish. The honeycomb part consists of plump and large shrimps wrapped in meringue, served with tempura dipping sauce. The overall taste is very similar to eating fried shrimp tempura, but the difference is that the meringue has an extra egg flavor and is crispier in texture. The store recommends eating it while it's hot. Since we were taking takeout to the hotel, the store gave us an outer packaging like a pizza box. Fortunately, Xiaoliuqiu didn't have much time to go back to the hotel and it took about 20 minutes before we started eating. It still tastes crispy and hasn't gone cold. Boiled shrimp (small) 250 yuan. There are about 12 large white shrimps, each one is big and plump. The shrimp meat is fresh and sweet. Affordable and fresh. Salt and pepper ghost knife (small) 200 yuan. The portion is quite large, filling a lunch box. The fried fish nuggets have a solid texture similar to chicken but not dry, and the taste is fresh and sweet from the fish. Stir-fried seasonal vegetables (cabbage) NT$100. Ordinary cabbage stir-fried quickly over high heat, but the heat gives it a full flavor. The seasoning is not too salty either. Although these dishes were taken to the restaurant to eat, they were not discounted because of the take-out taste. Recommend a menu that is not confusing.

#100 Ways to Travel Address: No. 10-42, Fuxing Road, Liuqiu Township, Pingtung County, Taiwan 929 Atmosphere/Facilities: Outdoor barbecue, charcoal barbecue, beer at your own expense Features: All you can eat, fresh seafood, fresh vegetables Price per person: 390 yuan/person Rating: The most common thing to do at night in Xiaoliuqiu is the seafood charcoal grill buffet. The all-you-can-eat buffet at 390 yuan per person is considered the most cost-effective. The venue has no decoration, no air-conditioning, only many industrial fans blowing constantly to circulate the air. There are fixed plates on the table and what ingredients you want to eat go to the refrigerator. The atmosphere of the on-site charcoal barbecue is very good. It feels like having a barbecue with your neighbors in your own arcade. A group of people are noisy. And you don’t have to prepare food and clean it yourself. Personally, I think the oysters are not too big but are fresh. The meat has been marinated in advance and it has a good flavor without adding barbecue sauce. The most recommended ones with high CP value are fresh squid, shrimp and corn shoots. The ingredients are fresh and delicious without barbecue sauce. The deli section also has rice, fried noodles, and toast for barbecue. Drinks are at your own expense, but the prices are very affordable.
