It is an international port for foreign fishing vessels to land their fish catch. It serves not only as a docking and bunkering base for foreign fishing vessels operating in the Indian and Pacific Ocean, but also as a marketing and distribution centre for fresh fish.
It operates 24 hours a day, all year round, except for marketing and distribution activities, which are closed on Monday mornings between 0200 hours and 0600 hours.
To enter the port all visitor had to change the Identity Card to the visitor pass. If you are driving in the port, need to pay for the car-parking fee.
How many eyes does a sotong has?
When step in the selling area, fishy stench smell was all over the air. But it was not that unbearable as I expected. The stores in the area were not fully open as the time I was there was about 12am. I expected lot of shouting but did not seem like it. The area was calm but busy.People were push carton of seafood to their store. Many of them were separating the seafood into grades as different grades of seafood were sold at different prices. Placing the seafood properly so that buyer can see it.

It is a male dominated place, very few female counterparts. But, I saw many family around, maybe is a public holiday. It is a good place to learn.
I felt like back in school times, school brought us to places for excursion. Saw much type of fishes where I do not know how to name it. But I do know how they were cook and served on the table. It is another type of experience.
