Once a prison for political enemies of the KMT, it is now a tourist hot spot. It is one of the best places to snorkel and dive in Taiwan, one of only three saltwater hot springs in the world, and it also includes amazing volcanic rock formations and scenery all around the island.&nbsp;In this blog, we will explain how to get there, what to do, where to go, and how to enjoy this island. <\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id4958_08f0ae-7e .kb-table-of-content-wrap{padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-right:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-left:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id4958_08f0ae-7e .kb-table-of-contents-title-wrap{padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id4958_08f0ae-7e .kb-table-of-contents-title{font-weight:regular;font-style:normal;}.kb-table-of-content-nav.kb-table-of-content-id4958_08f0ae-7e .kb-table-of-content-wrap .kb-table-of-content-list{font-weight:regular;font-style:normal;margin-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;}<\/style>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Background:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Green Island is the remnant of a volcano that formed millions of years ago and is part of the Luzon Volcanic Arc. Today you can see lots of volcanic rock all along the shoreline.<br>Green Island is the seventh largest Island in Taiwan.&nbsp;<br>Green Island became inhabited hundreds of&nbsp;years ago by the Tao indigenous people (\u9054\u609f\u65cf) (aka Yami people \u96c5\u7f8e\u65cf, which is a name coined by the Japanese, but the native people prefer Tao), which are thought to have traveled from the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Orchid_Island\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Batanes<\/a>&nbsp;Islands in the Philippines, and then to Orchid Island. It was called Jitanasey by the Tao people.&nbsp;It was also known to be inhabited by the Amis Tribe (\u963f\u7f8e\u65cf) who reside today in Taitung. It was known by the Amis people as Samasana Island.&nbsp;<br>The Island was first settled by Han Chinese fisherman from Xiaoliuqiu Island in&nbsp;1813, who called the island Huoshandao (\u706b\u71d2\u5cf6) or Bonfire Island. More Han settlers from Donggang arrived in 1850.<br>In 1937 the American Steamship SS President Hoover ran ground at Green Island and all aboard were saved. To thank the people of Green Island, the US donated to build the Green Island Lighthouse which was designed by the Japanese and finished in 1938, at 33.3 meters or 109 feet high.&nbsp;<br>Green Island also served as a penal colony for political prisoners&nbsp;during the martial law era of Taiwan, which lasted from the late 9140s to the late 1980s. Some prisoners went on to help form the Democratic&nbsp;Progressive Party. The prison is now open to the public.&nbsp;<br>Currently, the Island is powered by one diesel generator. It also includes an airport.<br>Currently, about 4500 people live on the island, and the main industries are tourism and fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Weather and Climate:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The island has a tropical rainforest climate, with average high temperatures between 20 and 30 degrees year-round. The rainy months are in summer, especially due to Typhoons, but the most sunny days are also in summer (expect a lot of sun), and the most rainy days are in winter. Summer is the tourist season, but spring and fall are also popular times to visit. Winters are said to be dreary, and cold, and have constant northeastern winds that can stop airplanes and ferries from departing to the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When to go:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best time to go they say is around May when it is not too hot and there are no northeasterly winds or typhoons which can cancel your transportation to the island.<br>The typhoon season lasts from around June to October. The busy season is during summer break from June to August, during which time it can be hard to book a hostel or airplane ticket. Winter is the less crowded season, but the water will be colder, there will be constant wind (which could cancel transportation), and it will rain more often.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rules to Consider:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Do not go snorkeling or diving during bad weather, low tide, or big waves.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not trespass private property or government property that is off limits (such as military base, weather station, reservoir, or garbage dump)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Always snorkel or dive with a buddy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Have fun<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to get there:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Plane:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The only planes to and from Green Island come from Taitung City in Southeastern Taiwan.

The chloride sulfate spring is maintained at around 60 to 70 degrees Celsius within the pool but may reach up to 93 degrees Celsius at its outlet. These characteristics also point to an active volcano. Sea water penetrates the fault beneath and emerges after it has been heated and pressurized to reach the surface, causing its high density in salt lack of sulfur odor, and tacky touch. We have a complete hot spring facility to satisfy all your needs that includes an indoor spa, a semi-outdoor hot spring, a large pool, an outdoor hot spring, an egg cooking area, and three more hot springs by the ocean that let you enjoy the stars, waves, and sunrise all while inside our hot spring.&#8221;<br>The indoor spa was also closed when we were there. Hopefully, the entire facility will open soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading \u201cwp-block-heading\u201d\"><strong>Fanchuanbi Grassland \u5e06\u8239\u9f3b\u5927\u8349\u539f<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<figure><a><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: auto; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.foreignersintaiwan.com\/uploads\/5\/4\/3\/2\/54326073\/greenisland11-305_orig.jpg\" alt=\"Picture\"><\/a><\/figure><div class=\"wsite-image wsite-image-border-none\" style=\"padding-top: 10px; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0; margin-right: 0; text-align: center;\">\n<div style=\"display: block; font-size: 90%;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Another amazing place near the hot springs is Fanchuanbi Grassland.

The ferry journey back to Fugang Harbor was worse than the way over. We put our luggage on some seats downstairs and moved upstairs, and by the time we came down all our luggage was strewn all over the place. Then we drove 5 hours back to Taipei. Compared to other Islands, Green Island was much easier to explore. There is pretty much nothing stopping you from jumping into the ocean anywhere, and tourists can go pretty much anywhere on the island. Green Island probably has the most amazing natural scenery and rock formations of any other island I have seen in Taiwan. It also has great snorkeling and lots of places to dive. Zhaori Hot Spring is world-class, and going there alone is worth the entire trip. But there are no nice fine sandy beaches, and the journey there is rough and bumpy unless you take a place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Places and things we missed:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/24844?cid=9223\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Blue Cave<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=729984&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F53629-scuba-diving-green-island%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3D2e3c23f27d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Diving<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=729984&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F72286-stand-up-paddle-green-island%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3D5d12c45edd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SUPing<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/118402-semi-submarine-glass-boat-experience-green-island-taiwan?cid=9223\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Submarine\/Glass Boat Ride<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kkday.com\/en\/product\/142305-green-island-nighttime-squid-fishing-offshore-island-fishing-experience-taiwan?cid=9223\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Night Squid Fishing<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading4958_019c1c-c6\">There are many companies offering <a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=729984&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F19952-snorkeling-experience-xiaoliuqiu-kenting%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3D589a3898ad\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">snorkeling<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=729984&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F53629-scuba-diving-green-island%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3D2e3c23f27d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">diving<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate.klook.com\/redirect?aid=33635&amp;aff_adid=729984&amp;k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F72286-stand-up-paddle-green-island%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3D5d12c45edd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SUPing<\/a>, and other tours on Green Island.
