Live: China's fishing season starts! Thousands of boats head for 'fresh' catch

The three-and-a-half-month summer fishing moratorium comes to an end on Saturday, and fishermen are setting sail to embark on a new round of sea harvesting.

Our livestream spotlights four fishing ports: In Yangjiang Hailing Island, located in south China's Guangdong Province, thousands of boats are heading out for fresh catches, showcasing the abundance of the "Guangdong Marine Granary" and the local fishing traditions. At Qisha Port in Fangchenggang, Guangxi, also in southern China, the opening feast begins, offering a taste of the "first fresh seafood." On Dongshan Island in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, situated on the southeast coast, the first net is cast to welcome "seafood surprises" and explore the charm of fishing villages. Meanwhile, at Tanmen Port in Qionghai, Hainan, the southernmost province of China, new possibilities for "fishery+" are being unlocked as wisdom in "living off the sea" is sought.

Join CGTN for an exciting send-off as the boats depart, marking the beginning of a new fishing season!
