Green Island is a small volcanic island located about 33 kilometers (21 miles) off the coast of Taitung, Taiwan. It takes a while to get there from Taipei, so if you travel from there to Green Island, be sure to prepare 3-4 days to visit it!
Transportation
Because Green Island is in the east of Taiwan, Taiwanese sometimes go there by plane. If you want to take it easy and slowly enjoy the scenery of eastern Taiwan, you can also drive to Taitung and then take a boat to Green Island from Fugang Fishing Port in Taitung.
Drive to Taitung with some friends to share a good time and make more great memories. Slowly driving down to the east coast slowly one can see more scenery, sit more comfortably, feel more freedom, and have more convenience.
After driving or taking the train to Taitung, if you want to go to Green Island, you must take a boat. It usually takes 50 minutes to take a boat from Taitung to Green Island. From the ferry, you can watch the Pacific Ocean and feel its sea breeze, which is super comfortable.
