What does it mean to open the sea?

Opening the sea means that the fishing season is over and you can go fishing formally.

Due to China's 1995, the fishing season is generally three months. However, from 20 17, the closed fishing season in Bo Huang was extended to four months, mainly covering the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea north of 35 degrees north latitude. The system of closed fishing in summer is implemented, and the regulations for opening the sea are implemented according to the time nodes. The departments of sea surveillance, fishery administration, border inspection and agriculture strictly check and enforce the law, which ensures the healthy development of marine fishery.

In Beibu Gulf, fishermen spontaneously hold a ceremony to worship and open the sea every year to express their awe and gratitude for the sea. The fishing season in the South China Sea (including Beibu Gulf) is from May 1 day to August 16 12. After the fishing season is over, the sea will be officially opened.
