Golden Coast

Golden Coast is a WSW-facing beach break in Tainan, Taiwan. It picks up swell from S to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 63% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ENE: light winds or ENE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WSW onshores chop it up.
