Yu-lin Chiang (18°11'N., 109°31'E.) (World Port Index No. 57765) is a large bay indenting the coast between Jinmu Jiao and Luhuitou Jiao. Yu-lin Chiao, supporting a signal station, is the S end of a small peninsula that divides the N part of the bay. The bay is free of dangers beyond 0.3 mile offshore with the exception of a 3.6m patch which lies 2 miles E and a 7m shoal lying 1.8 miles ENE of Luhuitou-Ling (18°10'N., 109°34'E.). To the E and N of this peninsula is the naval port of Yu-lin. The port area is nearly landlocked, but is reported to be able to accommodate vessels with a draft of up to 9.7m; however, it has also been reported that the port is closed to foreign commercial vessels.
