A clean, white sandy beach so big it never feels crowded…Cool breezes coming off the water, a perfect temperature for swimming in the summer. Kinmen has many beautiful beaches, but Houhu is the only one where you can swim, as the others are affected by strong currents and rip tides. Between mid-June and mid-August, lifeguards are on duty here from 2pm to 6pm.The annual Music Festival, usually in July , is held here. (Please see Events page for details.)
