I rarely wade into water deeper than my ankles. I know how to swim, but I’m not crazy about the other stuff, like fish, that can swim too. However, there’s an undeniable magic in the sound of the waves, the aroma of the sea, and the texture of sand beneath my feet and between my toes. I’m drawn to a serene beach atmosphere, one without towering skyscrapers, opulent hotels, or bustling crowds. A casual beach walk is my kind of activity, regardless of the season. The option to stroll along the boardwalk, experience a glass-bottom cable car, or go for a mountain hike while keeping the ocean in sight is pure joy.

Despite my dislike for group tours, I decided to book it because I didn’t want to spend more money that could be used for another trip. It wasn’t ideal, but I had to go with it. So I booked the tour to Yehliu Geopark, Jiufen, Shifen, and the Golden Waterfalls for the day after tomorrow.
