What kind of vibrant world lies beneath the waters of Huangyan Dao?

A total of 165 species of reef-building hard corals, 184 species of fish and more than 2,700 marine species together form a vibrant marine ecosystem beneath these blue waters.

From scientific surveys and ecological monitoring to maritime patrols and law enforcement, China is taking concrete action to safeguard peace and stability in the South China Sea. By continuously improving the ecological protection system around Huangyan Dao (Huangyan Island), China is building a stronger shield for this blue maritime home.
