Keelung Islet

Keelung Islet is a small, volcanic island just off Keelung’s coast, known for steep green slopes, sea cliffs, and panoramic views of Taiwan’s north shore. Accessible by seasonal boat tours (typically spring to autumn), it offers a short but moderately steep hike from the landing pier to a lighthouse lookout. Birdlife, coastal flora, and clear ocean vistas attract nature lovers and photographers. Facilities are limited, so bring water and sunscreen. Weather and sea conditions can affect landings; check schedules in advance. Ideal for a half-day excursion paired with Keelung Harbor and Miaokou Night Market.
