(Central News Agency reporter Tsai Meng-yu, Kaohsiung, 15th) To allow more travelers to experience the charm of Kaohsiung's coastal fishing village tourism, the Kaohsiung City Government Tourism Bureau is implementing the "Coastal Tide Travel" group tour subsidy program. From now until June 30th, any group meeting the formation conditions can apply for a transportation subsidy of NT$4,500.

The Tourism Bureau announced today in a press release that in addition to Love River Bay and Cijin, Kaohsiung's five coastal districts—Qieding, Yong'an, Mituo, Ziguan, and Linyuan—also boast unique cultural customs and rich agricultural and fishing village cultures. The Tourism Bureau is dedicated to promoting coastal tourism and welcomes travel agencies nationwide to organize groups to experience Kaohsiung's coastal scenery.

The Tourism Bureau stated that Ziguan, in addition to Ouziliao Fishing Port, is also a production and distribution center for rice and vegetables; the Linyuan Mangrove Ecological Zone offers views of natural ecology such as fiddler crabs, Kandelia obovata, and Avicennia marina, combined with the Linyuan Old Street, which carries local historical memories, showcasing multi-layered tourism charm.

Yong'an is known as the "hometown of grouper," where visitors can taste the delicious and collagen-rich diamond water grouper. In addition, there are attractions such as the Nanliao Fishing Port Coastal Corridor, Ouziliao Marine Fishery Parent-Child Hall, and the culturally rich Linyuan Cingshuei Temple.

The Tourism Bureau stated that starting immediately, travel agencies organizing groups to visit designated attractions in the five coastal districts and dining locally, with each group having 15 or more people, can apply for a NT$4,500 transportation subsidy per group. The subsidy is for tours conducted until June 30th, and applications will be accepted until July 15th or until the subsidy quota is exhausted.

Furthermore, during the event period, visitors who tour attractions such as Qieding Xingda Harbor Tourist Fish Market, Yong'an Salt Field Painted Village, Mituo Luodishan Nature Park, Ziguan Ouziliao Fishing Port, and Linyuan Ocean Wetland Park, and collect stamps from all five locations, can participate in a lucky draw for a chance to win limited edition Kaohsiung Bear merchandise.
