- Dasi
South of Cape Sandiao, the northernmost foothills of the Syueshan Range rise — sharply from the coast, creating a striking backdrop to the small towns that DASI, 4km south of Dali, is a once-tranquil town that is quickly being transformed into Taiwan's premier surf centre. Dasi is widely o considered to have the most consistent beach break in northern Taiwan, and the waves on the edge of town in Honeymoon Bay hold great appeal for experienced and novice surfers alike, with typically hollow faces yet enough power and speed to lend themselves to shortboards and quick take-offs. There is also usually plenty of gentle swell for novices, and due to Dasi's proximity to Taipei it can be choked with Taiwanese beginners on summer weekends - seasoned riders are better off going during the week, when they often have the beautiful stretch of black-sand beach all to themselves.
