智慧海灘（Smart Beach）是指利用現代科技手段提升海灘活動的安全性的一個系統。它是結合人工智慧技術、大數據、物聯網和自動監測技術的一個整合系統。智慧海灘通常包含有安全監控、環境監測、即時資訊展示與救助系統。透過智慧攝影機、環境傳感器和即時數據傳輸與分析，智慧海灘能夠即時地監控人流、海況、水質、天氣變化等資訊。智慧海灘系統也能夠偵測海域遊憩活動的類別與人數，以及偵測遊客的安全，包含是否超越警戒線、是否有潛在溺水可能性等。透過智慧海灘的建置，可以讓遊客安心享受海灘之美，享受安全水域遊憩活動。智慧海灘可以為遊客和管理者帶來更好的體驗與效益。

臺南市的智慧海灘整體規劃案與示範站建置是由海洋委員會補助，由市政府觀光旅遊局指導，國立成功大學近海水文中心執行與建置。研究期程自113年6月至11月。

Smart Beach refers to a system that utilizes modern technology to enhance the safety of beach activities. It is an integrated system combining artificial intelligence, big data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and automated monitoring technologies. Smart Beach typically includes safety surveillance, environmental monitoring, real-time information display, and rescue systems. By using smart cameras, environmental sensors, and real-time data transmission and analysis, the Smart Beach system can monitor information such as crowd flow, sea conditions, water quality, and weather changes in real time. It can also detect the types and number of recreational activities in the coastal area and monitor the safety of visitors, including whether they have crossed warning lines or are at risk of drowning. The implementation of Smart Beach can allow visitors to safely enjoy the beauty of the beach and engage in recreational activities in safe waters. Smart Beach provides a better experience and benefits for both visitors and beach managers.

The planning and establishment of the Smart Beach demonstration site in Tainan City is funded by the Ocean Affairs Council (OAC), guided by the Tainan City Tourism Bureau, and implemented by the Coastal Ocean Monitoring Center (COMC) of National Cheng Kung University. The project period is from June to November 2024.
