The institution started in 1958 as a fisheries college serving the local maritime community. Over time it grew and merged with other schools, eventually becoming part of Zhejiang University's marine education network.

The college sits within the Zhoushan Islands, a region where fishing and maritime work have deep roots in local life. This location shapes how students experience their education, connecting them directly to the ocean economy that surrounds them.

The campus is located on an island, so reaching it requires ferry access or boat transportation from the mainland. Visitors should prepare for ocean conditions and bring weather-appropriate clothing for their visit.
