Golden Beach in Taiwan is a famous sandy beach attracting many people because of a wide sandy beach and beautiful sunset. In recent years, however, this beach has been eroded. As a measure against beach erosion, groins were constructed as well as the beach nourishment on the beach. Despite these efforts, their effect was insufficient in recovering sandy beach. In this study, the beach changes in a widespread area including the Erren River, Golden Beach, and Anping Harbor were investigated using the satellite images and bathymetric survey data. Field observation was also carried out on May 25, 2018 near Anping Harbor and Golden Beach. On the basis of these field data future measures were discussed.
