Kenting, located on the Hengchun Peninsula and often referred to as "The Southernmost Point of Taiwan," is renowned for its stunning beaches, exciting water activities, hidden mountain trails, national parks, and fresh seafood.
Most travelers reach Kenting by taking a bus or renting a car from the Zuoying High-Speed Rail Station in Kaohsiung. For our trip, we drove from the station to Kenting, which took approximately 2.5 hours.
Travel Season
From October to April, Kenting enters its off-peak travel season. The “Luoshan Wind,” essentially the northeast monsoon, sweeps through during this period. The wind forms a channel and sometimes can reach speeds of 10 to 17 meters per second, comparable to the strength of a mild typhoon. During this time, please be very careful if you travel by bike or scooter. As a result, fewer tourists visit during this time. However, if you prefer to avoid crowded places or excessively hot weather, October to November is the ideal time to visit Kenting.
