Located in Tainan, Yiguang Island is a small independent islet in the southwest of Annan District, connected to Annan by the Yiguang Bridge. This tranquil beach was once a hidden gem known only to a few—just cross a bridge and you feel as though you’ve entered another world. In recent years, with the rise of the internet and the popularity of installation art, Yiguang Island, also known as Crescent Bay, has transformed into an open-air outdoor exhibition space.

With breathtaking sunsets and spectacular installation art, Yiguang Island attracts not only many social media influencers, bloggers, and photography enthusiasts but also an increasing number of surfers. Many have praised it as “Tainan’s Kenting.” Every summer, it becomes one of the hottest spots in Taiwan.
