Dive-site story
Situated along the Northeast Coast of Taiwan, Longdong Bay Site 4 sits directly behind Hemei Elementary School. A concrete staircase leads straight down to the rocky coastline, making this one of the most accessible and heavily frequented training locations on the island. The underwater terrain transitions smoothly from shallow rocky shelves into open sand flats, with scattered boulders providing shelter for macro critters and schooling juveniles.
Convenient shore access with paved stairs leading down to the water
Expansive sandy patches and gentle topography suitable for skills training
Abundant macro critters hidden among scattered boulders and rock crevices
