Hengchun White Sand Bay Beach

　　Hengchun National Park’s White Sand Bay is a shell beach composed of marine organism shells. Its uniformly fine, glistening sand makes it suitable for swimming, diving, sailing, and riding jet skis year-round. On land, you can have barbecues, go camping, or enjoy cycling along the bike paths. In autumn and winter, you can watch the sunset sink into the sea, and the night sky here is perfect for stargazing.

　　After watching *Life of Pi*, you’ll surely never forget the stunningly beautiful floating sea island and the Mexican beach — those were actually filmed at White Sand Bay.
