Private Keelung Island and Heping Island Park Day Tour from Taipei

Keelung is a nostalgic city full of stories. Surrounding a natural harbor, in addition to the salty air and the abundant supply of fish, there are many stories and secret places waiting to be explored in Keelung.

On this tour, you will visit two secret places in Keelung—Heping Island Park and Keelung Islet, exploring the unique landscapes and rock formations that will blow your mind.

Besides the natural attractions, you will make a stop at the city’s most Instagrammable place—Zhengbin Fishing Harbor, a fishing harbor that features a row of rainbow-colored houses.

Since you are in a harbor city, of course, you will not miss out on the freshly cooked seafood. You will have lunch at an indigenous restaurant, enjoying a special seafood meal cooked with local seafood and indigenous spices, savoring the flavor of the sea, and the mountain.

Meet your tour guide and driver at the hotel lobby, and then head off to Keelung City. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery from the windows during the 60-min drive to your first stop, Heping Island Park.

Heping Island Park is a tourist spot that has been very popular in recent years, and has become an iconic landmark of Keelung. The island preserves many historic remains such as Dutch Cave, Sheliao East Fort, and the relics of the Ama diver culture, Yuanshan Culture, Iron Age, etc, witnessing different eras passing by.

The unique rock formations of coastal erosion are also the unmissable highlights in Heping Island, such as the wave-cut platform, the mushroom rocks, the chessboard rock, and many more, as if the sculpture works by the God. Besides, the diversified natural environment results in abundance of species and ecosystem diversity, which are worth discovering.

The next stop is the most Instagrammable spot in Keelung—Zhengbin Fishing Harbor, which is only a 20-min drive from Heping Island Park.

This small fishing harbor goes viral on the Internet because of a row of the colorful houses along the shore, attracting countless social media influencer, bloggers and media to visit. In fact, it was once a prosperous fishing harbor during Japanese colonization, but declined as time goes by. However, the tranquil harbor never loses its charm. The white fishing boats lined along the dock, the brightly painted houses and the water reflection and the sea sparkling in the sunlight, creating a picturesque scene, as if you are in Burano Island.

Agenna Shipyard Relics is just nearby, an abandoned shipyard built during Japanese colonization. If you look from afar, it looks like a modern industrial architecture. Its exposed reinforced concrete conveys a sense of decadence through the lens, making this place become a famous spot for photography. The Hollywood actor, Chris Evans, best known for playing “Captain America”, has been there to film a commercial.

After the morning tour, enjoy a special indigenous meal at Agenna Aboriginal Restaurant in Keelung City Indigenous Cultural Hall, giving you an opportunity to know about the aboriginal people in Keelung.

After lunch, visit the mysterious Keelung Islet by boat. On the way to Keelung Islet, you can clearly see an ocean current called “Keelung Sill”.

Keelung Islet is a volcanic island surrounded by towering cliffs, and there is barely any plain on it. After landing on the islet, there is a vast platform, where you can slowly climb to the top of the islet along the trail. Most of the time you have to walk uphill along the way, so you must pay attention to your physical condition and drink more water to prevent dehydration. After you reach the top of the islet, the snow-white Keelung Lighthouse and the vast blue ocean is right before your eyes, enjoying the feeling of being surrounded by the endless ocean. Here you can also take a look at the main island Taiwan from afar, appreciating Taiwan from a different angle.

After that, you will head back to downtown Taipei around 17:30 and arrive in your hotel around 19:00.
