2 Fushan Fisheries Resources Conservation Area Eco-Tour

Fushan Fisheries Resources Conservation Area 富山漁業資源保護區

This conservation area was established more than a decade ago in response to overfishing in the surrounding waters. Protecting the marine ecology and maintaining the area’s value for tourists were pitted against the economic needs of local fishermen. Despite some protests from fishermen the area has remained a no-fishing zone since 2015 and marine life in the local habitat has seen a steady increase year on year. The tour introduces many of the local sea creatures and plants, along with the ecology and history of this beautiful spot on Taitung’s east coast.
