Destination: Taiwan

Taiwan is an emerging surf paradise that blends raw natural beauty with a deep-rooted cultural soul. With year-round swell, warm Pacific waters, and a coastline framed by jungle-covered mountains, it offers an inspiring backdrop for every type of surfer. Its unique geography and exposure to typhoon-season swells mean Taiwan delivers everything from gentle peelers to solid, challenging reef breaks—perfect for those looking to explore something new beyond the usual surf destinations.

The east coast is where Taiwan’s surf scene shines, with laid-back surf towns like Dulan and Donghe offering consistent waves and a welcoming local vibe. Beginner and intermediate surfers will find friendly beach breaks and long rides ideal for progression, while more experienced riders can head to spots like Jinzun, especially during the autumn typhoon season, when conditions line up for heavier, more powerful sessions. The lineups are blissfully uncrowded, and the scenery-towering cliffs, tropical forests, and volcanic black sand beaches-adds a touch of magic to every paddle out.

Ocean Fever’s Taiwan surf experience goes beyond the waves. Stay in carefully selected coastal guesthouses or boutique stays just steps from the surf, and enjoy the warm hospitality of local hosts who live and breathe the ocean lifestyle. From airport transfers to tailored surf guiding, every detail is handled so you can focus on the ride. Between sessions, explore lush mountain trails, unwind in natural hot springs, and dive into Taiwan’s unforgettable street food scene-with dumplings, noodles, and bubble tea becoming post-surf staples.

Whether you’re chasing uncrowded waves, cultural richness, or simply something different, surfing in Taiwan with Ocean Fever is where true adventure meets island soul. It’s a journey of surf, scenery, and story-crafted to leave you stoked and inspired long after the last wave.
