Dido Bank

Dido Bank consists of marine sediments and shallow waters situated at coordinates 16.816667° N latitude and 112.883333° E longitude in the South China Sea.

The establishment of Xisha District in April 2020 marked a new administrative structure for managing the maritime territories and resources of the Paracel Islands.

Maritime activities shape the daily life of local communities, with fishing operations constituting the main source of sustenance for residents in the Xisha District.

Access to Dido Bank requires navigation through marine routes, as the area lacks direct land connections and maintains restricted entry protocols.
