There is an ancient volcanic crater formed 20 million years ago on the southeast side of the island. The two volcanic islands are 2-8 kilometers offshore. The park is equipped with small yachts that can go out to sea and land on the islands. However, the volcanic landscape is greatly affected by the rise and fall of the tide. When the tide rises, the lava will be completely submerged, making it impossible for ships to dock. When there is wind on the sea, for safety reasons, you must not go to sea. Under normal circumstances, there are only about 30 days in a year suitable for visiting volcanic islands. It requires the right time, place and people. Going to Linjin Island is 64 yuan per person, while Nanding Island is more expensive, and the boat leaves for more than 8 people.

It has the boldness of singing and beating the pulp, and the excitement of riding the waves and flying in the boat. This is a near-miss voyage. The various shapes of strange rocks in the stream, the lush forests and bamboos on both sides of the stream, the chirping of birds and the mountain flowers can give you a feeling of being integrated into nature. Professional water safety officers guide and protect you throughout the entire process, making the entire rafting process safe and sound.

The construction of two dams on the upper stream has allowed the waterway to still be turbulent in winter, making it the first in China to realize whitewater rafting in all seasons.
