## Langyu Qianxing Introduction

Langyu Qianxing Introduction

Langyu Qianxing was founded by a group of partners who "wandered" to Penghu from different counties across Taiwan, drawn together by the ocean. Their shared longing for freedom and the deep blue inspired them to stay in Penghu and start a business together, giving rise to the brand story: "Arriving on the island with the waves, exploring life in a different way."

Since its inception, Langyu Qianxing has evolved from developing Penghu Diving sites to offering a diverse range of activities, including freediving, SUP, mermaid experiences, certification courses, and island exploration tours. Beyond helping travelers capture unique underwater photos, the venue prioritizes water safety, adhering to high standards in instructor qualifications, equipment management, and actual tour leadership. Twosevenths joined their "Dive 'til You Drop" one-day Penghu Diving experience to see if even those who fear water or can't swim can participate, how beautiful the "Lavender Forest" truly is, and how Langyu Qianxing balances fun, stunning photos, and safety.

### ✦Safety is paramount, with rigorous standards applied at every step, from instructor qualifications to the in-water process.

Water activities inherently carry risks, so for Langyu Qianxing, "safety" isn't just a point of caution during the activity. Every instructor at Langyu Qianxing holds a lifeguard certification recognized by the Sports Administration, and they possess professional certifications for freediving, snorkeling, SUP, and other relevant activities, depending on what they lead. These high standards are meant to ensure travelers have a basic safety awareness even before booking. When choosing water activities like freediving, snorkeling, or SUP, beyond comparing prices, itineraries, and photos, we recommend actively confirming the following:

*   Professional qualifications of the lead staff: Verify that the instructors actually leading the activity hold the corresponding professional water certifications and are qualified lifeguards.
*   Validity of certifications: Completing rescue training doesn't automatically grant lifeguard certification, and lifeguard certifications also have renewal and expiration requirements. You can further confirm if the certifications are valid.
*   Activity-related insurance: Confirm whether the venue has purchased relevant water recreation activity insurance based on the nature of the activity, and whether the coverage period includes your actual experience date.

Langyu Qianxing's safety management begins the moment you complete your reservation. Guests are required to fill out relevant information in advance to finalize insurance and confirm wetsuit and fin sizes. On the day of the activity, the instructor arrives early to check the wave conditions and reconfirm the actual water conditions with the boat operator or local partners.

Before entering the water, in addition to basic equipment instruction, guests are guided through relaxation techniques, treading water, and diving methods. They also learn how to use their equipment for self-rescue, such as using the life vest as a floating aid. This ensures a strong sense of security before moving on to the next stage.

All equipment is inspected before departure and after the activity, and the team always prepares 2–3 extra sets of backup gear for on-site replacements, with regular rotation of equipment in use. Langyu Qianxing also carries insurance for water recreation activities, ensuring safety management is implemented at every stage of the experience.

For first-time participants in water activities, it's worth proactively checking important details before booking, such as whether the lead instructor has the appropriate qualifications, if the activity is insured, and whether safety procedures are truly implemented on-site—rather than just comparing prices, itineraries, or photos.

### ✦You can experience the ocean even if you're afraid of water or can't swim, thanks to small-group, step-by-step guidance.

"Can I join if I don't know how to swim?" is a common question Langyu Qianxing often receives. For travelers who are afraid of water or have no prior diving experience, Langyu Qianxing offers small-group instruction, gradually guiding participants. The student-to-instructor ratio for freediving experiences is a maximum of 1:4, and 1:1 arrangements can also be made upon request. If there are more participants, assistant instructors or additional coaches will be brought in as needed.

There's no need to rush into challenging a deep dive on your first time in the water. The instructors will first understand the reasons for any fear of water, then provide buoyancy aids like life vests and swim noodles. You'll start in areas where you can touch the bottom, getting comfortable with the equipment and the water, before gradually practicing floating, breathing, and finally, diving. Approximately 1 to 2 hours are reserved for the actual in-water experience, ensuring every participant has ample time to adapt.

Langyu Qianxing has guided students who once needed life vests to enter the water all the way to earning their freediving certifications. Their students have ranged in age from third graders to 67-year-olds. The team also offers instruction in English and Japanese, ensuring that travelers of all skill levels and language needs can find their ideal way to experience Penghu Diving.

### ✦Explore the "Underwater Lavender Forest" for an unforgettable and photogenic experience.

Langyu Qianxing has been developing Penghu Diving sites since its brand's inception, aiming to offer more than just popular spots. They seek out locations better suited for freediving, exploration, and underwater photography. Unlike common routes to the Southern Four Islands or Qimei, Langyu Qianxing has chosen the area around Jiangjun Island as its primary diving spot for the "Lavender Forest." This site boasts a vast area with high coverage of purple antler corals. The round trip from Magong takes approximately 100 minutes, significantly less than the 180 minutes required for some popular outlying island routes. This reduces travel time, allowing more of your itinerary to be dedicated to the actual underwater experience.

Beyond the dive sites themselves, underwater photography is a key focus at Langyu Qianxing. The instructors aim for photos that go beyond simply capturing people and coral, instead showcasing both the diver and the stunning underwater scenery of Penghu. Before the shoot, they'll discuss your diving experience and desired shots, and you can even bring example photos to share with your instructor. Once in the water, they'll guide you through each movement—from descent and horizontal swimming to stretching and ascent—adjusting to the day's sea conditions, lighting, and your personal abilities. Even if it's your first time freediving and you're unfamiliar with underwater posing, the instructors will provide guidance and assistance tailored to your skill level. There's no need to push yourself beyond your limits for a perfect shot.

### ✦Explore Penghu's diverse activities, from freediving to island escape games.

There's more than one way to connect with the ocean, and that's the core philosophy Langyu Qianxing wants to share. Beyond freediving, the team has expanded to offer a variety of activities including snorkeling, SUP, underwater scooters, and mermaid experiences. They also design half-day, full-day, and land-and-sea combo experiences to suit travelers' schedules and needs.

The popular "Dive 'til You Drop" package lets you explore multiple dive sites and try various water activities in a single day. The "Half Dive, Half Land" package takes the marine experience further by combining it with an island-based escape game developed by the team, integrating Penghu's local culture into game missions. This allows travelers to get to know Penghu in many different ways, from simply enjoying the water to deeply exploring the islands.

### ✦Pets can join you at sea, creating a pet-friendly water experience.

For pet owners who love to travel with their furry companions, a trip to Penghu doesn't have to mean leaving your pet behind at the guesthouse. Langyu Qianxing has recently begun developing pet-friendly marine experiences, giving pets the chance to join their owners out at sea! There's no extra charge for pets to come along, and the team provides pet floats, treats, and even pet life vest rentals, considering all the potential needs pets might have on the water, from gear to activity arrangements.

Currently, Langyu Qianxing has hosted up to four pets on a single trip, and they plan to continue developing more pet-friendly water activities in the future. If you're used to traveling with your pet, this offers a unique opportunity to not only explore Penghu's land attractions together, but also to create special memories of feeling the sea breeze, taking a boat ride, and even playing in the water.

## Langyu Qianxing Services

Langyu Qianxing Services

Langyu Qianxing offers a variety of ocean activities, including freediving, snorkeling, SUP, mermaid swimming, and underwater scooters, with different combinations of these activities forming unique itineraries. If you enjoy the experience and want to learn more, you can also enroll in international certification courses for freediving or mermaid swimming. If you're unsure which to choose for your first time, start by considering how long you want to play, whether you want to take a boat, and if you prefer just water activities or a land-and-sea experience.

### ✦Freediving Experience

This experience is perfect for first-timers to Penghu Diving, especially those who are nervous about water or unsure if free diving is for them. Langyu Qianxing offers various arrangements, including shore and boat dives. The experience begins with an introduction to basic equipment, underwater relaxation, and diving techniques, so no prior free diving experience is necessary. If you already have free diving experience, you can spend more time on actual dives, exploring the underwater environment, and taking photos.

### ✦Dive into the Deep｜Explore multiple Penghu dive sites in one day

If you're coming to Penghu and want to dedicate an entire day to the ocean, Langyu Qianxing's "Dive 'Til You Drop" is a signature Penghu Diving itinerary. This 8-hour journey takes you to various dive sites depending on the day's sea conditions, combining freediving, snorkeling, underwater scooters, SUP, mermaid tails, and underwater photography. Compared to single-site experiences, the biggest draw is seeing a variety of underwater landscapes in one day, with more time to practice your diving skills.

### ✦Langyu Qianxing｜Dive in for underwater photoshoots

If the main goal of your Penghu trip is to witness the "underwater lavender forest" formed by vast purple staghorn corals, you can opt for a small-group boat dive focusing on the Jiangjyun Island dive sites. Compared to "dive-till-you-drop" packages that include multiple water activities, the lavender forest boat dive allocates more time to actual diving, freediving, and underwater photography. You also won't need to gather a full group to meet a minimum headcount; it's possible for even a single person to join!

### ✦Semi-Submersible, Semi-Land｜Ocean Activities + Island Escape Room

If you don't want to spend your entire day at sea but still want to experience both the underwater and land scenery of Penghu, a "half-sea, half-land" itinerary is an excellent choice. Langyu Qianxing combines marine activities with their self-developed island-based escape game, transforming local culture into a series of games and missions. This allows travelers to explore the island while solving puzzles, making it a rich and varied option for first-time visitors to Penghu with limited travel days who want to combine water activities and island hopping in one trip.

### ✦Mermaid Experience / International Certification Course

If you love underwater photography, or have always wanted to try swimming in a mermaid tail, you can also join Langyu Qianxing's mermaid experiences. In addition to single-session experiences, Langyu Qianxing also offers PADI mermaid certification courses, perfect for those who want to further their skills after an initial experience, or who are already hoping to obtain an international certification.

### ✦Freediving International Certification Course

If you discover a true passion for freediving after your initial experience, you can take it to the next level by enrolling in a freediving certification course. This will provide systematic training in breathing, breath-holding, diving techniques, and safety knowledge. We've even had students who initially needed a life vest to enter the water go on to complete their freediving certification through continuous learning — a truly rewarding experience for our team.

### ✦SUP, underwater scooters, and other marine activities

Beyond freediving and mermaid experiences, Langyu Qianxing also offers various other ways to enjoy the ocean, including SUP, underwater scooters, and snorkeling, all available in different package combinations. If you're not looking to challenge yourself with a deep dive, you can still enjoy the Penghu waters through these other activities. And if you already have freediving experience, these different pieces of equipment can add a new dimension to your adventure.

## Langyu Qianxing Experience Review

Langyu Qianxing Experience Review

Susan joined Langyu Qianxing's "Dive 'Til You Drop" one-day tour, an 8-hour adventure that visited three diving spots and included freediving, snorkeling, underwater scooters, SUP, mermaid tails, and underwater photography. The boat itself was very comfortable, and it was stocked with drinking water, sports drinks, and snacks. After the third dive, everyone had burned a lot of energy, so seeing the instructor pull out a huge bucket of cookies was a truly blissful moment!

### ✦First Dive｜Submerge into a Dreamy Purple "Underwater Lavender Forest"

The first dive site is the highly anticipated underwater lavender forest. Vast expanses of purple coral stretch out underwater, looking incredibly dreamy even from the surface. When sunlight pierces through the clouds and illuminates the seabed, it creates beams of light dancing among the purple corals, a sight even more beautiful than imagined.

However, the first dive was also the most challenging for Susan. Although she had previous diving experience, it had been a while since her last dive. When she re-entered the water, she struggled several times with ear discomfort, preventing her from reaching her desired depth. Yet, she really wanted to capture a closer shot of the lavender coral, so she had to adjust and try again and again.

Throughout the process, the instructor never rushed her, patiently accompanying her through repeated attempts until she finally captured the shot she wanted. For fellow travelers with no prior diving experience, the first dive was clearly a period of adjustment to the ocean. Aside from Susan and one other experienced diver, many were initially a bit scared, which made the progress at subsequent dive sites even more noticeable.

### ✦Second Dive ｜ Everyone suddenly learned to dive to touch the soft corals!

The second dive site became Susan's favorite stop of the entire trip. She had initially been a bit afraid of sea creatures and never imagined she'd actively approach them, but that day she not only touched soft coral but even felt a sea cucumber — a miracle in her book!

Even more interesting was watching the other beginners. Everyone was visibly nervous during the first dive, but by the second, their desire to explore the underwater scenery and get closer to the marine life spurred a sudden leap in their learning speed. Practicing together and overcoming their fears as a group made for a truly memorable experience on this Penghu Diving trip.

### ✦Dive 3｜Slip into a mermaid tail for an underwater photoshoot among rose corals

The third dive was a completely different experience: we changed into mermaid tails for an underwater photoshoot. I was a little worried about my stiff movements and not knowing where to put my hands and feet underwater, but thankfully the instructor gave direct suggestions on how to pose. Before each pose, the instructor would confirm if I was willing to try it, then explain the next steps. So even with no prior underwater photography experience, I didn't have to guess at poses in the water. The instructor adjusted my movements and angles based on the actual situation, so we didn't need to do many repeated dives to get beautiful mermaid photos.

### ✦What truly stands out, even more than the photos, is the paramount importance placed on safety throughout the entire experience.

After a full day of firsthand experience, one of the most striking features for Susan was the sense of security, something not always evident in photos. Even with a mix of beginners, experienced divers, couples, and solo travelers on the same day, everyone's needs were still well-attended.

When an instructor was focused on one student or group, other participants were directed to a relatively safe area. Before using equipment like underwater scooters or SUPs, which can easily take you away from the boat, the activity boundaries were thoroughly explained, and throughout the process, the instructors continuously checked that everyone remained within sight and a safe range.

If anyone breaks the rules, the instructors really do get serious; they won't turn a blind eye to safety regulations just because everyone's out to have fun. From instructor qualifications, on-site flags, and water regulations, to actual personnel control once you're in the water, you can feel Langyu Qianxing's emphasis on "safety first."

### ✦Unexpected bonus: Our first time diving with a dog!

Finally, there was an unexpected highlight: Levi, the venue's dog! Although Susan had dived many times before, this was her first time taking a boat out to sea with a dog. During surface intervals, she could relax on the boat with Levi, enjoying the sea breeze and sunshine. It became an unexpected and therapeutic memory from her trip, and it helped her understand the appeal of Langyu Qianxing's pet-friendly tours.

If you're planning a trip to Penghu with your furry friend and don't want to leave them behind every time you enjoy ocean activities, taking them out on the boat with you will create truly unique travel memories.

#The Best Penghu Diving Packages

REVIEWED BY Diving enthusiast Susan

Susan recently tried Langyu Qianxing's "Dive 'Til You Drop" full-day Penghu Diving tour, visiting three different dive sites in one day. She explored a dreamlike underwater lavender forest, got up close with soft corals, and even donned a mermaid tail for photos with rose corals, experiencing freediving, snorkeling, SUP, underwater scooters, and underwater photography all in one go. Although Susan has prior diving experience, it had been a while since her last dive. During her first dive, she struggled to equalize and descend comfortably, but her instructor patiently helped her adjust and try again until she successfully captured close-up photos with the lavender forest.

Beyond the distinct beauty of each dive site, what impressed Susan most was Langyu Qianxing's commitment to safety and detailed instruction. Before every activity, the instructors confirmed participants' willingness, clearly explained, and demonstrated each step. When using equipment like SUPs and underwater scooters, they repeatedly reminded everyone of the activity boundaries and continuously monitored their positions. Many first-time divers in her group went from being hesitant to enter the water on the first dive to actively practicing descents to get closer to the soft corals on the second, a testament to the instructors' progressive guidance.

If you're visiting Penghu for the first time and want to experience a variety of marine activities, or if you're particularly keen on seeing the underwater lavender forest and capturing stunning underwater photos, the "Dive 'Til You Drop" tour offers a remarkably rich experience. Even if you're afraid of water or have no freediving experience, the instructors will guide you at your own pace. For those with prior diving experience, you'll have more time to explore different dive sites and take underwater photos. Whether you're a beginner, a couple, a solo traveler, or even someone looking to bring your furry friend out to sea, you'll find a suitable way to enjoy the waters of Penghu.
