The Journey

Seven days, one coastline.

A likely rhythm, not a rigid schedule. Sequence changes with swell, weather, and the day’s local conditions.
Optional add-on

Three days deeper into Taiwan

Extend the journey with Jiu Fen — the mountain town that inspired Spirited Away — Beitou Hot Springs, the National Palace Museum, and a Taipei night market.

01

Arrival and first taste of Taiwan

Group meets on the East Coast. A quiet first dinner and time to settle into the island pace.

02

First surf and orientation

A light morning session to find our feet. Afternoon on the local rural roads.

03

Surf, regional food, and coastal exploration

A longer surf session followed by a trip to a nearby town for regional specialties and coastal vistas.

04

Surf and natural hot spring

Early session in the water, then a natural geothermal spring deep in the jungle.

05

Rivers, waterfalls, or swimming holes

Salt swapped for fresh water — an afternoon in one of the East Coast's inland detours.

06

Final full surf day and special dinner

The last long day in the water. A shared meal chosen for the group to close the trip.

07

Closing morning and departure

A slow morning together before the group heads home.

“A likely day” — not a promise. Surf, weather, and local conditions shape the actual schedule.

Optional three-day Taipei & North East extension

Three days deeper into Taiwan

Stay on after the surf journey for a guided three-day inland extension. We travel from the East Coast into Taiwan’s mountain towns and thermal valleys, ending in Taipei with museums, markets, and the city’s layered energy.
