貓鼻頭公園

墾丁有兩個寶藏級的地質景觀，一個是「船帆石」，另一個就是「貓鼻頭」。貓鼻頭為台灣海峽與巴士海峽的分界點，並與鵝鑾鼻形成台灣最南之兩端。貓鼻頭距白砂約3.5公里，其外形狀若蹲仆之貓，因而得名，它是一塊從懸崖上滾落的珊瑚礁岩。貓鼻頭旁邊是典型的珊瑚礁海岸侵蝕地形，俯瞰像女孩子的百褶裙，所以有「裙礁海岸」之稱。海岸受到長時間的波浪侵蝕、反覆乾濕、長期鹽粒結晶、沙粒鑽蝕及溶蝕等作用，產生崩崖、壺穴、礁柱、層間洞穴等奇特景觀。

在祖國的寶島台灣，貓鼻頭公園位於恆春半島西南頂端，其外形狀如蹲伏的貓，因而取其名為“貓鼻頭”。這裏冬天適合藻類的繁殖，海岸邊處處可見到各式繁茂的藻類隨波搖曳，與蔚藍清澈的海水、五彩繽紛的熱帶魚和猙獰的珊瑚礁岩相襯極富觀賞之美。附近的後壁湖是墾丁國家公園內最大的漁港，一年四季都可見到不同的漁獲。每當黃昏時，常可見本地人和遊客爭購海鮮，極為熱鬧。而至傍晚時刻，夕陽染紅了整個海面，景緻十分壯麗，早為恆春八景之一。

這裏了有非常棒的海灘，是台灣人的度假聖地，曬太陽的，玩帆船的，游泳的，戲水的，各種遊客都有，海水顏色非常棒，除了海灘，這裏還有懸崖峭壁，邊上的雷公石非常有名，慕名而來的遊客都會上去轉一圈，這裏常年擠滿了遊客，想要上去拍張人少的照片都非常不容易。

肯館處旁的貓鼻頭公園確實值得一去，自然的景觀，藍藍的天空，自成一幅畫！

Cat's nose is exactly a park, where you can enjoy the coastline of Taiwan Strait, reefs like cat's nose, flying fish from snack shops in the park and that fish are local characteristics. You must try them. China on the tip of tongue has also introduced flying fish. Cat nose and goose nose are the southernmost two ends of Taiwan, but cat nose is far less famous than goose nose. But actually the cat's nose is more spectacular than the goose's nose! Standing on the viewing platform of the park, you can have a panoramic view of Taiwan's Bus Strait, which is very magnificent. Then the ecology along the coastal area of Maotou Cliff is very good. The green mountains and countryside are very eye-catching. It is the place where you really experience the sea and sky. There are two observation decks in the park. Walking up the trestle road, we recommend the observation deck on the left-hand side, which is much higher. The viewing platform on the right is relatively small. The wind is very strong here. Remember to bring an extra coat. My hair blew so messily that I couldn't even find my eyes. The sea here is also beautiful, blue and blue! Cat Nose Park is located at the southwest tip of Hengchun Peninsula, free of charge. Because of the park management, the opening hours are limited: 8:30-18:30 (April 1-October 31) and 8:30-17:00 (November 1-March 31). If it is self-driving, there is a parking lot in Maobitou Park. The charge is NT$60 for large cars, NT$40 for small cars and NT$10 for locomotives. If you take an operating bus, transfer to Kenting Street Bus (Blue Line) at Hengchun Transfer Station until Cat Nose.
