For those who lack climbing experience, extra caution should be exercised to ensure personal safety when visiting this beach. Although the sea cave is truly remarkable, it is advisable to avoid wearing athletic shoes and proceeding recklessly due to the road's collapse. To access the beach, a small wooden ladder to the left of the cliff fork can be used. It is important to note that one of the steps on the ladder is damaged. Additionally, the beach is sparsely populated, providing a serene and peaceful environment.

Unfortunately, the trail is currently closed for renovations on June 19th, which is a bit of a shame. However, the scenery is absolutely stunning and breathtaking. The view is so beautiful that it can take your breath away. This beach is an amazing place to relax and unwind, allowing you to forget all your worries and just enjoy the moment.

The beach is a stunning and immaculate crescent shape, with a sea cave that can hold up to 50 individuals. It's important to exercise caution when exploring the cave, as the upper rock layers may come loose. The cave is filled with sand and boasts a high ceiling, while the exterior is relatively low.

I truly wish that visitors who desire to visit the beach would take the necessary precautions to preserve the natural environment and its inhabitants. The path leading to the beach seems abandoned and cautionary markers obstruct the entrance, located in an open area north of the Taroko Boundary Monument. The entrance is also overrun with overgrown weeds, making it a challenging trek for inexperienced hikers. While a wooden ladder has been constructed at the site of a previous collapse, it is steep and requires careful footing and the use of a rope for stability. It is imperative that visitors exercise caution and respect for the natural surroundings when visiting this beach.

Although the trail has been neglected, it's still manageable to walk. It's not a lengthy path, but there are some elevation changes. The final set of stairs may require some hands and feet for support. While there is a slight risk, the beach below is absolutely stunning, offering a serene setting to admire the crystal-clear waters and pristine white sand.
