Hengmen Fishing Port in Zhongshan's Nanlang subdistrict on August 16 erupted in cheers as starting horns blared and fireworks lit the sky. Thirteen boats, carrying fishermen's hopes for bountiful catches, embarked on their voyage marking the end of the fishing moratorium.

In the daytime, the port transformed into a lively carnival. An entertaining crab-tying competition captivated onlookers, with participants' nimble hands and quick movements earning thunderous applause. Meanwhile, the seafood bazaar drew crowds, its air thick with aromas of freshly steamed crabs and local street food delights.

As dusk fell, the celebration shifted to a heartwarming seafood banquet where guests savored just-landed treasures from the sea. The most impressive part was the "Aurora Realm" light show, which bathed the fishing port in a kaleidoscope of modern LED artistry, creating a magical fusion of tradition and innovation under the starry sky.
