About

Daqiu Island (Ta Chiu/Tachiu) (pinyin: Dàqiū Dǎo; Wade–Giles: Ta4-chʻiu1 Tao3; Foochow) is an island in the East China Sea, part of Beigan Township, Lienchiang County (the Matsu Islands), Fujian Province, Republic of China (Taiwan). The island has been uninhabited; it is open to the public. The smaller Xiaoqiu Island is located to the northeast of Daqiu Island.

In October 2020, a bridge between Daqiu Island and Beigan Island was under construction.
