Offshore Dive Site - Hejie Wreck ship
This dive site is located on the west coast of Hengchun Peninsula, along the 4-1 Scenic Road, which can be reached by going south through the highway next to the Hau Wan Hoi Sang Museum and passing through the Red Chai Hang. For shore dive, you can park your vehicle by the roadside and go into the water, because you need to pass through a rugged and difficult section of the coir reef bank to the entry point, which is steep and sharp, and has the reputation of Paradise Road, so you should pay attention to it. After passing through the coral reef, you will enter the water at the shallow reef, you have to be very careful when you get on and off the shore, when the waves are pushed from the deep water to the shallow water, due to the influence of the terrain, it produces a strong energy of the breaking waves, there are usually a lot of waves at the shallow paddock, please pass through as soon as possible to avoid stopping in the area of the waves, if you are not familiar with the entry and exit points, you'd better give up this dive point, and it's not recommended to go down the dive in bad weather or strong wind and waves. The weather is not favorable or the dive is not recommended when the wind and waves are strong.
About Hojie Wreck Boat
We used the boat dive method to dive, so the direction of travel was slightly different. Since the average depth on the way was about 23 meters, the time was very tight, and the amount of air needed to be kept in mind, the strong south current of the ebb tide in this area would easily deplete a lot of air, and at the same time, it would be easy to deviate from the target, so please be careful.
Walking westward, after crossing the slope to a depth of 28 meters to reach the sandy bottom, kicking into a flat and large gentle slope, with only the remains of the shipwreck in sight, and then kicking for about 38 meters to reach the shipwreck. The wreckage area is about 32 meters deep and you can only stay in the wreck for a short time if you are not using oxygen cylinders. Only the bones of the shipwreck are left, and the "ribs" are like an oasis in the desert on the flat and gentle slope, and it is really admirable to see how many fish can gather in such a small piece of land! The red and white three-spined jacks, including the five-spined snapper, geranium snapper, golden perch, guanjiao, and pine cone fish, guarded the area near the wreckage of the ship like the god of the gate. In addition, there are traces of a special coral called "sea pen" in the vicinity of the wreck, so it is worthwhile to keep an eye out for it, as it can be an unexpected catch.
Offshore Dive Site-Dingbaisha Drift Diving
The dive site is located on the west coast of Hengchun Peninsula, between Hepjie and Baisha, locally known as Ding Baisha. If you are traveling from Hepjie to Baisha, you will find a clear red marker pointing to the Wan Ying Gong Temple on the right side of the road, and the vehicle should turn into the alley from there. If you are going by shore dive, you should drive straight to the parking lot at the bottom of the road, and then finish assembling your equipment in the open space. This is also a popular spot for sea fishing, so please be courteous when getting on and off the shore as there are fishing activities on holidays, and ask the anglers about the sea conditions and the direction of the flow of the sea. Since we use the boat dive method, it is much easier and more fun, and it is also safe.
Dingbaisha Dive Ecology
- At a depth of 28 meters, you will reach the main landscape area of this dive site, where large groups of sea fans and willow corals are distributed. The main coral species are red whip coral, tough whip coral and cork soft willow coral etc. Other corals to look for are orange blunt coral and red fan coral, it is worth noting that one of the sea fans is obviously not attached to the sea lily, so you can observe it carefully, the tiny pea seahorses may be hidden in it. Please pay attention to the residual air pressure at all times, do not stay too long at this depth, photographers should be more careful with the time control, 31 meters to the west to see the return trip, this point is not easy to return to the point of entry in case of a strong ebb tide south current, so please observe the direction of the sea water flow at any time during the dive.
- On the way back to the northeast, you can see a continuous reef with a gentle upward slope at 24 meters. Five-lined snapper, geranium snapper, golden perch, kanji, and pine cone fish are common fish along the way, and those who like macro photography can look for sea slugs, anemone shrimp, and clown fish at 24 meters and 18 meters, which will be different from the other species found in the other dive sites.
