For a country with such an extensive coastline, it's a little strange that surfing is not more widely taken up. This makes it attractive for a traveling surfer, crowds are still pretty much unheard of. However, China is developing a thriving surfing scene, one that is expected to boom in the coming years. The country is just starting to host international surfing events, such as the Swatch Girls Pro China 2011 - http://www.swatchgirlspro.com . This will only serve to cement surfing as a popular sport for the Chinese people. Here's a look at some of the waves that you could expect on a surf trip to China, taken at the Swatch Pro at Riyuewan beach.
