Dive-site story
Located along the scenic coastal cliffs of Ruifang on Taiwan's northeast coast, Bat Cave is a popular rocky shore dive. Divers enter from the rocky shoreline below the coastal park, navigating shallow reef flats that give way to submerged boulders, sandy patches, and sloping reef structures harboring diverse macro life and schooling reef fish.
Rugged underwater topography with massive rock formations, crevices, and swim-through channels
Rich macro biodiversity including numerous nudibranch species, flatworms, and juvenile reef fish
Accessible shore entry platform popular for training and night dives during calm summer months
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
The northeast monsoon brings heavy surf and unsafe conditions from late autumn through early spring, making summer the optimal diving window.
