Diving in Green Island

Michella Jade Weng, Presenter:Hi, I��m Michella and this is my friend Sascha!
Even if it means staying up all night, you won��t want to miss the sunrise at Green Island. It��s an amazing sight and you can always go back to bed after you see it.

Or you can go snorkeling!
The fourth largest island of Taiwan, Green Island used to be known as a place where political prisoners were held in exile during the martial law period. These days, it��s mainly a diving destination and you can see why.

Partly because of the coral reefs, many different types of fish gather here. Anemonefish, damselfish, parrotfish, trumpetfish and clownfish to name a few.

Sascha Florian, German Expat:
It was amazing. We only went out 5 meters and it was full of fish everywhere. Huge corals and they were just all over us.

I don��t know about you Sascha, but I��m ready for lunch. What do you say to some nice seafood? No Nemo, I promise.

You can leave your diet plans in Taiwan, because the seafood here is quite delicious. Fried flying fish, steamed squid, fried egg with seaweed and fried octopus rolls come highly recommended.

Michella Jade Weng, Presenter:
What did you think of Green Island?

Sascha Florian, German Expat:
Very refreshing and it definitely deserves the name. Everything is green, covered with plants. It��s very nice.

Yeah, and the sunset is also something else.

Michella Jade Weng, Presenter:
It��s beautiful, isn��t it?

Sascha Florian, German Expat:
Very nice. Perfect ending for a perfect day.
