　　Product Introduction: Sanmen oysters are large, plump, and have a tender, crispy texture with a delicious taste. Known as the "milk of the sea," they are one of the local specialties. The main production area is Tiejian Beach upstream from Jiantiao Port. This beach features a mix of fresh and saltwater, moderate salinity, vast tidal flats, and a gentle slope, making it an ideal location for oyster farming in the county. Since 1983, the county has cultivated oysters on 172 acres. It produces 650 dan (approximately 32.5 metric tons) of fresh oysters annually, which are sold not only in the local market but also transported to Ningbo, Shanghai, and other areas.
