Typhoon Meranti, a powerful storm, recently hit Taiwan, bringing strong winds and heavy rain that whipped up 10-meter-high waves in Taitung. These caused the red lighthouse at Fugang Fishing Port to break and fall into the sea, and also obstructed the shipping routes of the Fugang–Green Island and Orchid Island ferry lines. To serve travelers and local residents, the Taitung County Government has coordinated with ferry operators to add one extra round-trip service between Chenggong and Orchid Island as well as Green Island on September 21 and 22. Travelers are advised to stay informed.
Additional ferry schedules for Orchid Island and Green Island:
September 21
08:00 Chenggong Fishing Port – Orchid Island
14:00 Orchid Island – Chenggong Fishing Port
September 22
12:30 Chenggong Fishing Port – 14:00 Green Island – 15:00 Orchid Island – 18:00 Chenggong Fishing Port
