Sanbaimen Port springs to life annually as the summer fishing ban ends. Fishermen conduct final checks on gear before hundreds of vessels surge toward South China Sea fishing grounds at the departure signal. Voyages span days to a month, with tea sets packed as essential companions, transforming idle sea hours into meditative rituals steeped in centuries-old seafaring heritage. 

Location: Sanbaimen Fishing Port, along Provincial Highway 222, Haishan Town, Raoping County, Chaozhou City
