Frequently Asked Questions

Cape Eluanbi is a scenic landmark located at the southernmost tip of Taiwan, featuring a historic lighthouse, expansive coastal grasslands, and walking trails. It offers visitors stunning panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and the Bashi Channel.
Visitors to Cape Eluanbi can expect to explore the iconic white lighthouse, walk along well-maintained coastal boardwalks, and enjoy striking views of the surrounding coral reef landscapes and ocean. The park provides a peaceful environment for photography and nature walks.
Travelers typically take the High Speed Rail from Taipei to Zuoying Station in Kaohsiung, then transfer to the Kenting Express bus or a taxi for the two-hour drive south.
Most visitors spend between one to two hours walking the paved coastal paths, viewing the lighthouse, and exploring the surrounding coral reef formations.
Admission requires an entrance fee that grants access to the Kenting National Park managed area, including the lighthouse grounds and coastal boardwalks.
The main pathways leading to the lighthouse and the primary viewing platforms are paved and relatively flat, making them generally accessible for wheelchairs and strollers.
Arriving early in the morning right after the park opens or visiting in the late afternoon provides the most comfortable temperatures and optimal lighting for photography.
Visitors should bring sun protection, including hats and sunscreen, as well as comfortable walking shoes and water, since the coastal area offers very little natural shade.
The well-maintained paths and minimal elevation changes make it a manageable and safe excursion for both young children and older adults.
The southernmost tip of Taiwan experiences strong seasonal winds, particularly during the winter months, so bringing a windbreaker is highly recommended.
Most third-party guided tours to the cape require at least 24 to 48 hours notice for a full cancellation refund, though exact terms depend on the specific tour operator.
The coastal trails feature unique coral reef limestone formations, and visitors frequently spot wild macaques, land crabs, and various migratory bird species.

About Cape Eluanbi

The best time to visit Cape Eluanbi is during the dry season from November to April, when weather is clear and comfortable. Early morning or late afternoon visits offer the most stunning lighting for photography and fewer crowds.
A typical visit lasts around 2-3 hours, allowing time to explore the lighthouse, trails, and exhibits. Visitors can extend their stay by enjoying nearby beaches or local dining in Hengchun.
Cape Eluanbi is located at the southernmost tip of Taiwan in Pingtung County, rather than Taipei, and is a protected area within Kenting National Park. Visitors should prepare for strong coastal winds and intense sun exposure, as the terrain consists of open grasslands and exposed coral reefs. Reaching the site from Taipei requires a multi-hour journey via high-speed rail and local transit, necessitating careful scheduling or an overnight stay in the Hengchun area.

The Cape Eluanbi Lighthouse, hailed as the "Beacon of East Asia," boasts geological, ecological, and cultural-historical significance. During the Japanese colonial period, it was voted one of the "Eight Views of Taiwan," and a monument was erected to commemorate this honor. In December 2022, CNN listed 18 underrated attractions in Asia, including Kenting in Taiwan. CNN recommended must-visit spots in Kenting, such as Wanlitong Beach, Cape Eluanbi, and Longpan Park.

It has now become part of the scenic attractions of Kenting National Park. Located on the left by the Pacific Ocean and facing the Bashi Channel, it stands opposite Luzon Island in the Philippines. With rolling waves, sailing boats, and the sky blending seamlessly with the water, the natural scenery is breathtaking and refreshing, earning its place as one of the Eight Scenic Wonders of Taiwan. The lighthouse faces southwest, backed by mountains and overlooking the sea, and is built in the form of a fortress. The walls feature shooting loopholes, and the surrounding area is fortified with defensive structures, making Eluanbi Lighthouse a uniquely armed lighthouse.
