The Siangshan Wetland is rich in ecological resources and boasts a thriving crab population with a grand variety and quantity. These include the soldier crab, the Telsidathelphusa (long-eyed) crab, the arcuata fiddler crab, and the milky fiddler crab, as well as the Taiwan fiddler crab, which is an endemic species to Taiwan. Every day during low tide, a massive number of crabs emerge to forage and active themselves, forming a spectacular "sea of crabs." It is a must-visit attraction for observing wetland ecology in Hsinchu City.
The Crab-Watching Boardwalk is approximately 250 meters in length. It is a curved and winding boardwalk that extends deep into the heart of the wetland. On the boardwalk, visitors can clearly and conveniently observe the activities of benthic organisms like crabs while minimizing human interference, ensuring that human visits do not disturb the lives of wetland creatures. The service center of the Siangshan Wetland serves as the Marine Conservation Education Center, providing guided commentary and basic service facilities for visiting citizens.
