Baqi Viewpoint
芭崎眺望台
A coastal lookout on the northern stretch of Highway 11 overlooking the crescent beach of Jiaoqi Bay and the Coastal Mountain Range, a classic stop on the Hualien–Taitung coastal road.
Baqi Viewpoint is located at about kilometer 46 of Provincial Highway 11, on the north side of Jiaoqi Village in Fengbin Township. The viewing platform perches on a sea cliff and looks down on the crescent-shaped Jiaoqi Bay, its gradient of pale blue water, and the Coastal Mountain Range stretching into the distance. It is one of the most photographed views along the Hualien–Taitung coastal highway. The lookout has a pavilion and colorful decorations, and there is a small parking lot nearby. Plan to spend about 20 minutes here. In summer, you can go down to the Jiaoqi beach for swimming or water sports. Admission is free, but check road conditions during typhoon season.
