East of Taitung County and 18 nautical miles offshore, Green Island is a 15,034 square meters islet. It is the fourth largest island in Taitung County after Penghu Island, Lanyu Island and Hai-on Island. The population on this island is only about 4,500 people. Most of the attraction sites on Green Island are scattered along the 16.3 km round island road. These include the Nanliao Bay, Green Island Light house, Green Island Park, General (Chiangchin) Rock, Pagoda Rock, Kuanyin Cave, Yuzhi Lake, Haichang Platform,Green Island Hot Springs, Sail Rock (Chuanfanpee), Horse Shoe (Matee)Bridge, Lobster Cave, Neokui Cave etc.

Snorkeling and submarine rides, underwater viewing on the boats with a transparent glass floor are popular aquatic activities on Green Island. Snorkeling and submarine rides in particular, appeal the biggest crowds here. Currently, in the north, the Chungliao Beach Resort on Chungliao Bay, has expansion works that are in progress in areas such as the cruise harbor and diving parade. This will further develop the tourism business on this small island.

The peak tour season is from March to June when the weather is mild and the sea current is relatively calm. It is truly an exciting tour spot for sea enthusiasts and beach lovers.
