Getting There & Around

How to Get to Liang Island

Access generally requires a private boat or charter from nearby offshore ports; check current regulations and military restrictions before travel, as access to small islands in the Taiwan Strait can be controlled or limited.

Tips for Visiting Liang Island

  • Check access rules: some offshore islets near Fujian/Taiwan have restricted access due to military presence.
  • Boat trips can be rough; choose a skipper with local knowledge of currents and landing spots.
  • Bring a satellite-capable means of communication or inform authorities of landings; services are minimal.
