The Gaomei Wetlands are located on the south side of the Dajia River Estuary in Qingshui. Over 120 species of bird have been recorded here and it is an important ecological conservation area. It is not large but because it has both mud flats and sand beaches and is also connected to the estuary’s swamp area it contains a rich variety of flora and fauna. It also offers beautiful sunsets over a unique manmade landscape ─ Gaomei Lighthouse and wind turbines. A cycle track runs through the area on which riders may coast with the wind in their hair: the Gaomei Wetlands are one of the highlights of the shore.
