Daguoye Columnar Basalt

A wall of exposed basalt columns at Daguoye reveals Penghu’s volcanic past. The regular stone forms are visible at close range beside the coast.

Why go

The columns were uncovered during Japanese-era work on a nearby landing place. Their repeated vertical shapes make the geology easy to read without a long hike. It is a compact outdoor stop on Xiyu, distinct from the Great Bridge and the island’s other coastal scenery.

What to look for

  • Exposed basalt columns
  • Penghu volcanic geology

Useful to know

  • Look from a safe standing point; the value is in seeing the pattern across the whole rock face.
