[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] A marine fishing park where about 300 people can fish simultaneously will be established in the sea near Deokjeokdo, Incheon.

On the 7th, Ongjin-gun, Incheon announced plans to create a marine fishing park near Jinri Port in Deokjeok-myeon with a budget of 4.5 billion KRW.

The marine fishing park will be a floating facility measuring 2,658㎡ on the sea, allowing about 300 people to fish at the same time. Ongjin-gun plans to start construction in March next year and complete it by the end of the same year.

A 173-meter-long pier will also be installed on the nearby beach. Tourists can enjoy the West Sea scenery while walking on the pier.

Marine fishing parks have already been established in Taean-gun, Chungnam, Yeosu-si, Jeonnam, and Gangjin-gun, Jeonnam, attracting many fishing enthusiasts.

Ongjin-gun expects that once the marine fishing park is established, about 15,000 anglers will visit Deokjeokdo annually.

An official from Ongjin-gun stated, "Out of the 4.5 billion KRW budget, 3 billion KRW has already been secured from the county funds," adding, "We plan to complete administrative procedures such as shared water surface usage permits as quickly as possible and begin construction next year."
