Wushi Harbor Introduction
If you love surfing challenges, enjoy the thrill of racing on the sea, or want to feast on seafood and taste fresh catches, come to Wushi Harbor! The name "Wushi" comes from the large black rocks in the harbor. This fishing port located in Toucheng Township not only serves traditional fishing purposes but also holds significant historical and cultural value. It was once the largest port in the Lanyang area and an important gateway for Toucheng, where many merchants and various daily necessities came and went. The term "Shigang Chunfan" describes the bustling scene of merchant ships gathering and the continuous flow of vessels at that time. However, in 1878, a flood caused massive sediment accumulation, and in 1883, an American ship ran aground here, leading to the decline of Wushi Harbor and affecting the prosperity of Toucheng. After the harbor was rebuilt in 1991, Wushi Harbor transformed into a popular recreational fishing port loved by many today. The old Wushi Harbor site is now designated as a conservation wetland, while the harbor features a tourist fish market called "Wushi Fishing Harbor Direct Sales Center" and a yacht port, allowing visitors to enjoy delicious seafood while admiring the beautiful scenery of the harbor and its vessels. Wushi Harbor not only captivates the hearts of many foodies but is also a paradise for surfers! With its flat and wide beach along with spacious surfing areas, you can always find skilled surfers riding the waves during holidays. The beach also has simple volleyball courts where kids and adults alike can enjoy their fun, with the soft sand making for a safe and comfortable experience! It is recommended to visit nearby tourist centers and the well-known Lanyang Museum during your trip to Wushi, where you can get close to the ocean, savor delicious food, and learn about the cultural beauty of the Lanyang people!
