The old harbor of Nanliao was built in the early 80’s to give the convenience to local fishermen. Due to the decreasing amount of fish loads over the years, the old commercial fishing harbor was replaced by a new, tourism focused Hsinchu Harbor. Not only it’s great for fishing, the new harbor also provides a weekend seafood market and a recreational pier to the public. The Direct sales Center of seafood stocks the freshest and well-priced seafood and it’s the main source to many fine restaurants around Hsinchu area.
