澎湖地名之旅Part57 員貝島 大貝殼
白沙鄉員貝村，先民取這個地名最適當，因為員貝島的形狀像一個「員形的貝」，「員」與「圓」諧音，因此古代人都將「圓」寫成「員」。
自清朝到日據時期，都叫「員貝」，未曾加上「社」或「鄉」，到了光復後才稱為員貝村。
員貝是個小島嶼，面積只有0.2776平方公里，人口外流緩和，民國四十六年有居民三百九十人，民國七十六年有三百二十三人，是澎湖人口外流較緩慢的村落。
員貝的北端豎立一支玄武岩石柱，由於形狀像一支毛筆，人們都稱它「石筆」，相傳會出名人，因為會受到石筆的庇蔭。
員貝的特點是每當乾潮時，人們可以從員貝走路到湖西鄉的沙港村，彼此相距約二公里，但是在漲潮時就被海水隔開了。
近年來由於大家喜愛戶外休閒，澎湖旅遊業者於是推出所謂的「踏浪」，就是在乾潮時帶領著觀光客從沙港走到員貝，因為沿途遍地都是珊瑚礁，可以捉到螃蟹、貝螺、石斑魚等，叫做「員貝踏浪」。
員貝島與沙港村之間有一條水道，長久以來每年農曆新年前後，就會有大群海豚自太平洋洄游而來，當員貝村民發現後，會立即與沙港村漁民出動數十艘漁船進行聯合圍捕海豚，成為澎湖一項相當有名的活動。近年因已禁捕海豚，該圍捕海豚活動已不復見。
