The world's first fishing-themed park, "Baoxiong Fishing Leisure Dock," was established by the global fishing tackle brand "Okuma." It continues the company's mission of "creating the joy of fishing leisure life," offering fishing knowledge, tackle introductions, and integrating tourism, making it the most educational and enjoyable fishing hall. In May 2020, it passed the Ministry of Economic Affairs' Industrial Development Bureau's International Highlight Tourist Factory selection, becoming the most representative international tourist factory. The "Baoxiong Fishing Leisure Dock" area covers 1,800 ping and focuses on four main themes: exhibition, experience, dining, and shopping. The exhibition content includes the history of fishing, fishing grounds and fish species, marine education areas, fishing tackle products, fishing gear, production lines, testing rooms, and more, combining cultural preservation with knowledge transmission. There are various interactive facilities, including a giant fishing machine, virtual fishing ground, multimedia fishing in Taiwan, 3D ocean films, DIY courses, and more, suitable for children, youth, families, and seniors to experience.

Baosheng Fishing Port Introduction

The founder of OKUMA has loved fishing since childhood and hopes that one day "fishing" will become a mainstream leisure activity for people in the country. He invested hundreds of millions to create a fishing-themed amusement park that combines a story museum, shopping street, and gourmet restaurants, providing visitors with picturesque scenes and recreational areas. In 2019, the "Treasure Bear Fishing Paradise" was born in the Taichung City, Tanzi District! It aims to teach everyone fishing knowledge and introduce fishing gear, passing on correct fishing and marine concepts to each visitor. Let’s join North Bear BO in protecting this beautiful ocean. The exotic outdoor plaza filled with coastal style features a blue and white marine-themed archway, which has been compared by netizens to "Little Greece in Taiwan," attracting a lot of visitors and becoming a hotspot for taking pictures. It has the world's only giant fishing machine, which enlarges the childhood fishing arcade game to a diameter of 7 meters! Besides being a great photo opportunity, visitors can also take up a fishing rod and take on the challenge! The fishing machine turns with the music, and fish float to the surface and open their mouths in time with the melody. Having started with fishing gear, OKUMA doesn't compromise on amusement equipment either; they use professional "deep-sea fishing iron rod" that can bear a great weight, and the hooks use Japanese "Owner treble hooks," which are sharpened and come with protective covers. These thoughtful safety measures allow both seniors and children to play安心 (recommended for children under 6 years old to wait a bit longer before challenging). The 1st-floor pier shopping street is free to enter and visit! It is designed in the style of an American fishing village. In addition to the OKUMA fishing gear direct store and fishing gear outlet, there are also Korean Busan grilled squid, BO Bear egg cakes, ice cream, popcorn, and other snack shops, as well as various comforting products and souvenirs available for purchase. Dan Tea Coffee is the most beautiful Dan Tea coffee shop in Central Taiwan, with spacious and comfortable dining spaces, creating a relaxing environment suitable for family gatherings, sister afternoon teas, and business meals, featuring a variety of items including brunch, light meals, set meals, coffee, beverages, desserts, and more. The Fishing Carnival is an American-themed amusement park where you can also enjoy fairground attractions in Taichung! There are many amusement machines not available in Taiwan waiting for you to challenge, including: lobster hammering champ, little fishing genius, ace pitcher, Bingo Bingo, and the clanging cup, giving you a chance to win huge stuffed toys! With its unique machine equipment, it has also become a new hotspot for television program filming. The gift shop offers exclusive cultural and creative products from Treasure Bear Fishing Paradise, as well as a collection of various specialty products from Taichung centered around the ocean theme. These are developed in three major aspects: cultural creativity, education, and gourmet gifts, where you can find everything from stationery to Taichung's famous souvenir gifts, perfect for visitors of all ages to explore and shop. If you are struggling with what to bring back for friends and family when visiting Taichung, this is definitely a place you shouldn't miss! The OKUMA fishing gear flagship store is known as a paradise for anglers, where you can buy professional fishing gear, reels, and apparel. On the 2nd floor, there is the Fishing Story Museum, offering guided tours to learn about fishing activities and fishing gear knowledge, as well as an opportunity to ride on a speedboat imported from the U.S., becoming a small marine environmental protector! The 3D Ocean Theater is suitable for everyone aged 0 to 99 to watch underwater world films, utilizing 3D visual effects where familiar marine creatures swim by, creating a surprising and exciting experience. The virtual fishing ground features a scene design that makes you feel like you're fishing on a boat deck, with projection screens on the walls showing fish at the water's surface, allowing you to experience fishing in a virtual setting without seawater! The DIY classroom is set in a medieval ship cabin-style classroom, where you can use sponges lightly dipped in ink to create your own fish print postcards to send to distant friends and family; there are also painting bear piggy banks, fake baits, and rod DIYs available, making it perfect for families, groups of friends, and multigenerational visits to take beautiful memories home.
