Bisha Fishing Harbor is one of Keelung's main fishing harbors, equipped with a fish direct-sales center and a zone of seafood restaurants. Fishing boats unload their catch each morning. The direct-sales center sells the day's catch and is the go-to place for Keelung residents purchasing fresh seafood — and a spot to observe the everyday operations of a working harbor.
What to See at Bisha Fishing Harbor
Bisha Fishing Harbor remains an active working port, with boat operations most concentrated in the early morning. The fish market stalls sell the day's catch, with the variety depending on the season and what was caught; pricing is similar to a traditional market. Some restaurants around the harbor offer a cook-your-own-purchase service, which is a popular option for some visitors.
The harbor retains the character of a working port. From the waterfront, you can observe the everyday sight of boats moored and nets being tended. Compared with more heavily touristed harbors, Bisha preserves more of a genuine fishing-industry atmosphere. The smells and sounds are part of the harbor environment — worth keeping in mind before you visit.
