About

Mimi's is a beautiful place to surf if you catch it on. The water is clean, the sky is blue, and the mountains are green. Nobody's going to come bother your peaceful session.

Atmosphere:
This is a remote spot along some rugged mountain coastline. If other spots are closing out, Mimi's is worth a check as the reef can provide some shelter and a rip current to make the paddleout managable. You're a long way from help, so bring friends.

Additional Info:
Mimi's Reef is a jagged lava reef that juts out from a black cobblestone beach. You'll see it whitecapping on small days, but it really gets going during big winter storms or Typhoon swell when size gets DOH and above. The beach is surfable at most any size, but nothing special.

To access the break, walk along the guard rail until you find the wooden ladder the fishermen use. If that's gone, look for a spot to climb down the seawall, but make sure you can get back up first! The shorey can be rough, and the whole spot tends to be really drifty, so experienced surfers only on days with any size.

Location

Access

Mimi's Reef is located along a stretch of the 11 about 30 mins south of Jici Beach and 15 mins north of Bashiendong. It is just north of Shiti Harbor. There is a turnout at a point just south of the reef where you can check the reef and beachbreak.

This is all about 90 minutes south of Hua-Lien by car depending on road conditions.
