Waiao Service Area Introduction

On a hot summer day, if you're looking for a beach getaway to cool off, you might want to visit the Wayaou Service Area. This bright yellow building, designed by renowned architect Yao Renxi, resembles a parachute and a large ship at the same time, showcasing a very modern aesthetic with multiple interpretations. Feel free to use your imagination and experience the uniqueness of this structure in person. The yellow facade against the backdrop of the blue sky and ocean faces Turtle Island, offering a private wetland beach along with a beautiful coastal path. Every morning and evening, as sunlight hits the surface of the sea, the playful silhouettes of visitors are captivating, harmonizing with the sunrise over Turtle Island and the picturesque sight of a turtle wearing a hat. In addition to stunning scenery, Wayaou Beach is also a haven for surfers, with shops nearby providing surfing lessons where beginners can enjoy the thrill of riding the waves, as well as thrilling water activities such as banana boating. On the nearby mountaintop, there is a paragliding base where you can take off into the sky and overlook the coastline of Wayaou—it’s beautiful and spectacular. The rich range of activities across land, sea, and sky attracts many tourists seeking adventure. The service area features a free foot washing station and a paid shower area. Café No. 9 inside offers coffee, light meals, and inquiry services, with large floor-to-ceiling windows that provide a view of the beautiful Pacific coastline and Turtle Island. It's said to be the closest café to the beach, where travelers can enjoy a meal while taking in the beautiful scenery and relax after swimming and playing in the water.
