| |
| Currents |
Green Island and Orchid Island both are on the path of the Japan |
| Current. The Current approaches directly to the Gueiwen, partly |
| touches the east of Green Island. That’s why the waves and tides |
are strong in Cape of Sail Boat, tough for boats to sail. In summers, |
| on the other hand, the southwest monsoon comes, the southern |
| Green Island has high tides and strong waves, causing the sea |
| turbid. The ocean condition is better in Jhongliao and Gongguan at |
| this time. On the contrary, it’s better in Nanliao and Gueiwan in |
| winters. |
