Donggang Fish Market Introduction

Donggang is one of the important fishing ports in southern Taiwan, where the port is the most frequently visited place for local fishermen. The departure times of fishing boats vary daily and depend on the working conditions of the boats. If you want to observe the spectacular scene of fishing boats returning to port and unloading their catch, you might inquire about the arrival times from local fishermen and share in the excitement of waiting for the large boats to arrive. After the boats return and the fresh catch is unloaded, it is displayed in the fish market, sprinkled with crushed ice to ensure freshness. The sounds of vendors calling out create a lively atmosphere in the market, attracting many tourists who come to experience the joy of bargaining and see a variety of fish, often giving a thumbs up in admiration, saying, "The fish are huge and incredibly fresh." This scene unfolds daily at the Donggang Fish Market, and it is highly recommended to visit in person to experience the local fishing village culture. Donggang Guangfu Road Seafood Street: Located near Section 3 of Guangfu Road in Donggang Township, there are numerous seafood shops lining both sides of the road. Due to its advantageous location, fresh seafood is easily obtained, with a wide variety at affordable prices, earning it the reputation of "Donggang Seafood Street." When in Pingtung, one must visit Donggang to taste the uniquely flavored seafood dishes. Linbian Seafood Street: The seafood in Linbian mainly comes from Donggang, Dapeng Bay, and aquaculture ponds along the coast. Its rich fish products and geographic advantages have led to numerous seafood restaurants lining both sides of Zhongshan Road in Linbian Township, known throughout Taiwan for their focus on freshness and reasonable prices.
