Green Island, Volcanic island in Pacific Ocean, Taiwan

Green Island spans 15 square kilometers with coastal cliffs, meadows, and caves along its perimeter, situated 33 kilometers from Taiwan's eastern shore point.

The island functioned as a detention center for political prisoners during Taiwan's martial law period from 1947 to 1987, housing numerous opposition figures.

The native Amis people inhabited this land before British sailors discovered it in 1864 after their ship encountered difficulties near its shores.

Visitors reach the island via regular ferry services from Fugang Harbor or flights to Ludao Airport, with electric scooters available for local transportation.

The Zhaori Hot Springs presents one of three oceanic geothermal springs worldwide, where mineral-rich waters emerge directly beside the Pacific Ocean point.
