南寮漁港The 130-kilometer coastline from Hsinchu County to Changhua County offers rich coastal landscapes and cultural characteristics. Nangliao Fishing Port in Hsinchu is a seafood paradise, where fresh catches arrive in the morning from the previous day's fishing trips. Visitors can shop at the port market or enjoy Taiwanese seafood cuisine at local restaurants. Next to the fishing port, a 17-kilometer coastal bicycle trail awaits exploration of nature and designed landscapes.

Changhua's coastal oyster fields produce plump and delicious oysters. "Sea buffaloes," specially trained to walk in the intertidal zone, are used for oyster transportation and can only be found in Fangyuan. Travelers can take a buffalo cart tour to explore the oyster fields' ecology and savor grilled oysters and seafood porridge. At the Wanggong Story House, artists have created sculptures of characters and birds using oyster shells as artistic materials. Oyster shells and fishing nets are employed in eco-friendly creations, and you can participate in workshops to showcase your creativity.
