I come to Fuding several times every year. Yes, I go to eat Fuding seafood. Fuding seafood is more affordable and the products are fresher. I ordered several special seafood, including mantis shrimp, lobster, oysters, etc. I was very satisfied after tasting it.
When eating seafood, one must pay attention to the word "fresh". We entered the restaurant and ordered a few plates of Lao Fuding's specialties, including lobster, mantis shrimp, taro rice, nine-segment shrimp, king crab, etc. After the chef finished cooking and served the dishes, I tasted that the seafood was meaty and plump, and the meat was particularly delicate.

Xiapu Travel Guide: A feast of light and shadow between the mountains and the sea
I. Recommended attractions that cannot be missed
1. Classic route of light and shadow mudflats
Beiqi mudflats (first choice for sunrise)
Features: Geometric lines formed by arc-shaped mudflats, fishing boats, and bamboo poles, and distant mountains looming in the morning mist.
Best time: April-June (seaweed season), September-October (autumn harvest)
Tip: Check the tide table in advance, the scenery is better at high tide; arrive at the observation deck before 4 am to reserve a seat.
Xiaohao Beach (Colorful Tidal Flats)
Features: The sandy mudflats reflect gold, red, purple and other colors in the sun, and the fishermen's labor scenes are vivid.
How to play: You can go down to the mudflats to experience picking shells at low tide, pay attention to safety.
Dongbi Village (the best place for sunset)
Features: A fishing village surrounded by mountains and the sea, the sunset dyes the sea surface golden, and the picture of fishing boats returning to the port is healing.
Hidden ways to play: The stone steps behind the village lead to the viewing platform, with a wide view and no one to disturb you.
2. Exploring the original ecological islands
Silu Islands (a niche secret)
Transportation: Take a boat from Jishi Pier (about 1.5 hours), it is recommended to charter a speedboat (150-200 yuan per person).
Highlights: Honglu Island (volcanic rock landform), Bird Island (seagull habitat), Nanlu Island (pebble beach).
Tips: You need to reserve a whole day and bring enough dry food; drone aerial photography is shocking.
Yishan Island (Heavenly Lake on the Sea)
Features: Ten thousand acres of meadows and large and small lakes on the top of the mountain, like the scenery outside the Great Wall.
Money-saving tips: Camping is available (you need to bring your own equipment), and stargazing is excellent at night.
3. Cultural experience
Banyueli She Village
How to play: Visit the She Folk Museum, taste black rice, and listen to She songs (the most lively on the third day of the third lunar month).
Yangjia Creek (Rongfeng Park)
Classic scene: old farmer leads cow oxen through maple forest (artificial fog in the morning), red leaves in autumn are like fire.
2. Xiapu on the tip of the tongue
1. Must-eat seafood list
Sword clam: Xiapu specialty, recommended fried with scallion oil or iron plate (40 yuan per person).
Kelp seedling soup: fresh and refreshing, more authentic with local sour bamboo shoots (about 25 yuan/portion at the food stall).
Broken snail: Spicy fried wine artifact, paradise for snail lovers.
Minnan paste: paste snack made of sweet potato flour, the first choice for breakfast (5 yuan at the street stall).
2. Cost-effective restaurants
Seafood on the tip of the tongue (Taikang Road): clearly marked prices, recommended pepper and salt mantis shrimp, fried rice noodles.
A Zhong Seafood Food Stall (Sansha Town): near Sansha Wharf, fresh ingredients, 60 yuan per person to eat until full.
Beiqi Village Fisherman's House: After shooting the sunrise, you can enjoy freshly caught seafood porridge (20 yuan/person).
3. Snacks check-in
Xiapu meat swallow: The skin of the swallow is as thin as paper, and "Agu meat swallow" on Fuding Street is the most famous.
Rice cake: The perfect combination of brown sugar and glutinous rice, the best is the mobile stall near the old bus station.
III. Money-saving accommodation guide
1. County economy (convenient transportation)
Xiapu Chenxi Hotel: 1 km away from the train station, clean and tidy, standard room 120 yuan/night in the off-season.
Home Inn (Longshou Road): Walking distance to the food street, member price is often less than 150 yuan.
2. Around the photography spot (convenient to get up early)
Beiqi Photography House B&B: The farmhouse is simple and clean, including breakfast 80 yuan/bed, the owner knows the tide time.
Dongbi Village Haishang Renjia: Sea view room is 200 yuan in the off-season, and the rooftop can directly take pictures of the sunset.
3. Characteristic youth hostels
Xiapu Shanhaijian Youth Hostel: A gathering place for backpackers, beds are 40 yuan, and you can form a team to share a car to play.
4. Practical Information Package
Transportation:
The train goes directly to "Xiapu Station", and the starting price of a taxi in the county is 7 yuan.
Charter price: County-Beiqi is about 50 yuan/car, and a tour of various attractions is 300 yuan/day (4 people can be grouped).
Tickets: Most tidal flats are free, and Yangjiaxi Rongfeng Park is 18 yuan.
Avoid pitfalls:
Be careful when choosing "sea fishing raft restaurants" as they are prone to being overcharged.
It costs a fee to take pictures of fishermen posing (usually 20-50 yuan), so communicate in advance.
Seasonal tips:
April-June: Seaweed harvest season, with rich labor scenes.
July-August: Pay attention to typhoon warnings and prepare rain gear.
November: Yangjiaxi red maple and ginkgo enter the best viewing period.

This restaurant is very popular in the local area. The whole environment looks very good, clean and of good quality. The waiter's attitude is also very good. He introduced several dishes to us based on our number. The taste is very good and we all like it very much.
The store is quite large, with a rich variety of seafood, and the cooking methods also cater to all kinds of cuisines, including raw, stewed, stir-fried, and steamed. The taste is quite good, and it goes great with beer. The portion of each dish is very large, and the price is very affordable. I ate so much that I had to lean on the wall. Ha, come and try it!

Address: Yuchi Lu
Highlights:
A must-visit Fujian cuisine restaurant for tourists, where the specialty seafood keeps you coming back for more
Verified user reviews
When you arrive in Fuding, seafood is a must-order. The ingredients are fresh and the taste is naturally not bad. There are private rooms in the restaurant, which are suitable for gatherings, but the sound insulation is not very good.
