The beach is composed of sand and pebbles that slope steeply into the Pacific, creating a sharp drop-off near the shore.
The strong rip currents and unstable seabed conditions make the water strictly off-limits for swimming despite the inviting appearance.
The beach is widely referred to locally as Lovers' Bay due to its secluded and romantic atmosphere.
It is geographically nestled between the Cape of Su’ao and the rocky cliffs of Tofu Cape.
The surrounding Nanfang'ao area is one of Taiwan’s three largest fishing ports.
Neipi Beach, also known as Lovers' Bay, is a crescent-shaped coastline located in Su'ao Township characterized by its steep, pebbled terrain rather than fine sand. The beach faces the Pacific Ocean, resulting in strong undercurrents that make swimming dangerous and officially prohibited. It is situated adjacent to the South Fangliao Fishing Port and Nanfang'ao harbor. The shoreline features a mix of large pebbles and stones polished by the sea. Visitors frequent the area for coastal views, photography, and the selection of small cafes lining the adjacent road. The area serves as a popular sunset viewing location for locals and tourists alike.

Wear sturdy footwear as the loose, large pebbles are difficult to walk on in sandals or flip-flops.
Remain on the dry, upper portion of the beach to avoid being pulled into the ocean by unexpected waves.
Visit the small independent cafes along the road for a vantage point of the waves while protected from the sun.
Do not attempt to swim in the ocean; follow all warning signs regarding water safety.
Avoid swimming or wading, as the undertow is extremely dangerous even for strong swimmers.
