儽巧! I was just looking at this event. Thinking of where to take my mom who will be here April and May. Wondering what else there is in Penghu besides this.

Seems a couple of days/nights should be enough.

Comfortable swimming starts in May.

I think the ā€œMoses Roadā€ (Google Maps) that goes to Chi Yu Islet (čµ¤å¶¼) is pretty cool. It only appears at low tide. You used to be able to walk to and explore the entire islet, but Iā€™ve heard most of it is off limits now, although I think you can still walk the road.

I also like the Tongliang Great Banyan Tree Temple (Google Maps), Whale Cave (Google Maps), and Zhuwan Dayi Temple (Google Maps) with its weird underground sea animal grotto. These three areas are right on the way to Erkan Old Village mentioned above.

A couple of days is good on Penghu. If you scooter it, prepare for relentless wind.
