    Calm sea season

    1 Apr – 30 Sep · usuallySea warm enough

    The water here is warm all year; what changes is the wind. From April the swell drops, the dive boats run out to the reef off Houbihu, and the beaches are actually usable.

  • Holiday

    1 Jul – 31 AugSchool holidaysCrowdedBook early

    Beaches, the Kenting Street night market and every room on the strip run at capacity most weekends. A weekday in June or September buys the same sea for half the money. Source ↗

  • Hazard

    Typhoon season

    1 Jul – 15 Oct · usuallyClosures

    The southern tip of Taiwan takes storms head-on. Everything on the strip boards up, the buses from Kaohsiung stop, and being stuck for two days is a normal outcome. Source ↗
