Sail Rock, Coastal rock formation in Hengchun Township, Taiwan.
The coral reef stone formation rises 18 meters from the ocean surface, displaying a natural shape that mirrors the profile of a sailing vessel.
The area near Sail Rock housed a whaling station in Banana Bay during the previous century, marking a significant period in local maritime activities.
Local fishermen and residents consider this geological formation a symbol of their connection to the ocean, incorporating it into regional maritime traditions.
Visitors can access Sail Rock through a newly constructed coastal road, located 4 kilometers south of Sheting Park with designated parking facilities.
The geological formation consists of hard coral reef stones that rolled down from higher plateaus, maintaining their position against ocean currents.
