Welcome to Surfing China! I recommend you enjoy this blog over a strong cup of espresso or a cinnamon latte ... but it will also go great with a cold beer!
I am Olga Patseva, originally from Vladivostok, Russia. For the last four years I've lived in China, currently Shanghai. In 2007 I got addicted to surfing after I first stood up on a board in San Diego, California, one of the world's nicest cities, and also one of the best for being a surfer.
The idea for this blog came to me when this question arose: "Where would I practice my surfing if two, or maximum three, short visits a year to the world's surf meccas are just not enough?" That's how I decided to find the most suitable waves here in China. But there is so little information on surfing in the Celestial Empire, and it is not quite clear if surfing exists here at all! This is what I'm going to discover.
In this blog we explore the surf potential of the Chinese coastline and its islands; we ride Chinese waves and we share our experiences. Of major interest to us are both expat and native surfers in China and their impressions here, surf events, travel adventures, and surf discovery.
If you live in, travel to, or have previously been to China and would like to learn more or share information about Chinese surfing, simply join China Wave Search.
Happy surfing! ![]()

My name is Olga Patseva (aka Dara), I was born in Vladivostok, but the 5 th year of living in China at present - in Shanghai. I'm addicted to surfing in 2007 when I first got on the board in one of the prettiest towns Peace, San Diego (California). The idea for this site came from me, when the question arose, where to practice your surf, if 2-3 visits per year in the reserves of surfing is not enough. A pro surfing in China until very little is known and not even entirely clear, but whether he was there at all? That's me and be seen.
