(CNA reporter Wu Sheng-hung, Singapore, 13th) Asia's largest dive expo has opened in Singapore, where the Taiwan Tourism Administration is promoting 'diving tourism.' Shih Chih-chung, Director of the Tourism Administration's Singapore Office, stated today that the participation combines Taiwan's advantages, such as being surrounded by sea and having convenient transportation, hoping to attract tourists from countries like Singapore and Malaysia to deeply explore Taiwan's world-class underwater landscapes.
ADEX BIG BLUE LEGACY, Asia's largest dive expo, was held in Singapore from the 10th to the 12th. The Ministry of Transportation and Communications' Tourism Administration issued a press release stating that this year's exhibition highlights Taiwan's strategic advantages as an island nation, including convenient transportation and an English-friendly environment, to attract travelers from Singapore, Malaysia, and across Asia to explore Taiwan's underwater scenery.
Shih Chih-chung told a CNA reporter today that Taiwan possesses an extremely diverse marine ecosystem, with coastal areas offering unique, world-class diving experiences. From charming macro marine life to spectacular schools of sea turtles and rich cultural heritage, Taiwan's diverse underwater environment has become an unmissable emerging destination for diving enthusiasts worldwide.
Shih pointed out that to provide professional travel advice, transportation information, and firsthand local experience, top diving operators from northern, southern, eastern Taiwan, and Penghu have set up in the pavilion to give visitors an in-depth understanding of each region's characteristics and to help plan future diving trips.
This time, the Tourism Administration's booth presents diving highlights from all over Taiwan. For example, northern Taiwan features sedimentary rock formations shaped by monsoons, nurturing a colorful 'underwater garden' with soft corals and seasonal green algae. Yilan's Guishan Island also offers exciting underwater hot springs and wreck diving experiences for advanced divers.
In southern Taiwan, diving highlights include Kenting's magnificent fringing reefs and varied underwater topography, while Xiaoliuqiu is world-renowned for swimming with green sea turtles, making it a world-class diving destination.
During the exhibition, the Tourism Administration held several diving seminars, inviting guests including ADEX Greater China photography ambassador Yorko Summer, Canon-affiliated photographer Chiang Pei-chi, and Chen En-ting, head of Penghu's 'Ocean Pathway,' to share their diving experiences in Taiwan through images and to showcase Taiwan's achievements in ecological conservation.
