【Tips for Viewing the Fluorescent Sea:】
▪️ The fluorescent sea is also called the "Blue Tears Galaxy."
▪️ The best viewing period is from May to September, and the chances of seeing it now are still pretty high—though luck plays a part, haha.
▪️ Try to avoid rainy days, typhoon weather, and the tidal periods around the 1st and 15th of the lunar month.
▪️ You might spot it at South Pier, Foshou Rock, or the beach bathing area.
▪️ If you’re taking photos, remember to bring a tripod—otherwise, shaky hands will blur your shots.
