Fulong Beach, Taiwan
From series “Top Beaches for Surfing on Huge Waves”
Fulong is one of the largest and most attractive beaches for surfers in Taiwan. It is located near the capital. The beach is covered with soft golden sand. Several hotels and restaurants are located in the immediate vicinity. The presence of constant strong waves attracts surfers to this beach. But there are also many fans of the usual beach holiday here.
The relatively short beach period can be considered the main disadvantage of Fulong Beach. Constant rain can ruin your vacation in the summer. The water is too cold for beach activities in winter. September is considered the best time to relax on this beach. The beach was opened to tourists in 1975. Its main value was originally considered golden sand. It is very rare in Taiwan. The current of the Shuang River divides the beach into two parts – external and internal. The width of the beach has significantly decreased in recent years. This is due to the construction of a new power plant on the river.
