Due to coastal defense considerations, Taiwan has not allowed golf courses along its coasts. The regulations governing golf courses issued in 1982 prohibited their construction on high-yield farmland, but placed no restriction on private woodland, and this pushed the golf courses up the hillsides.
台灣由於海防顧慮，因此球場無法進入海邊，民國七十年訂立的「高爾夫球場管理規則」，限制生產量較高的農田設球場，但並未限制私有林地，因此將高爾夫球場推上了山。
