Cars 4 Rental Guide To Activities in  Taiwan

Watersports: Taiwan's best diving tends to be off the islands around the coast, where the water is clearer and strong sea currents have kept pollution to a minimum. The sites at Green Island to the east include Nanliao, with beautiful coral; Chungliao Submerged Reef (suitable only for advanced divers); and Tapaisha. Orchid Island is surrounded by coral reefs and features several recommended dive sites. The coral reefs of the south and the Pescadores Islands are considered good skindiving areas. Sharks and barracudas are rare in the waters around Taiwan. For further information, contact the Chinese Taipei Diving Association, No 34, Section 2, Chih Shan Road, Taipei (tel: (2) 2883 9466; fax: (2) 2883 9468). Rivers, lakes and the sea are ideal for swimming. The best time for swimming on the north coast is May to September; the south coast has warm waters all year round. Hot springs abound throughout the country. Some of the sites are easily accessible and provide baths, hot tubs and hotel facilities. Lakes, rivers, fish farms and the sea offer mainly unrestricted fishing. Near Taipei, there is good fishing at the Tamsui and Hsintien rivers, Green Lake and Shihmen Reservoir.
