Blue Sea Fishery is the leading supplier of Giant squid(Dosidicus Gigas) in China. Giant squid is a nutritious seafood product, characterized by high protein, low fat, and rich in a variety of nutrients beneficial to the human body.

Giant squid, mainly the Humboldt squid (Dosidicus gigas), also known as the Jumbo Flying Squid, is one of Peru's most important fishery resources. Giant squid’s fishing seasons, areas, and yields are significantly influenced by marine environments (such as the El Niño phenomenon) and fisheries management policies from local government. The key information is summarized as follows:

1. Giant Squid Fishing Seasons

Main Seasons

• Peak Period:       May to November each year, when giant squid gather in Peruvian coastal waters for foraging, suitable for large-scale fishing.

• Secondary Peak Period:       Fishing activities of giant squid may also occur from December to March of the following year in some years, but are highly affected by fluctuations in seawater temperature

Influencing Factors

Warm currents cause giant squid to migrate to more southern or deeper waters, potentially leading to a sharp drop in yields.

Cold-water conditions are favorable, possibly extending or      intensifying the fishing season of giant squid

2. Giant Squid Fishing Areas

Core Fishing Grounds

• Peruvian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ): Concentrated in the northern to central coastal areas (such as waters near Piura, La Libertad, and Ancash regions).

• High Seas Fishing Grounds: Some fishing vessels operate in the high seas of the southeastern Pacific Ocean (e.g., waters off Peru-Chile).

Depth Range

• Typically      in the mid-upper waters at a depth of 50–500 meters. Giant squid exhibit strong phototaxis at night, so fishing vessels often use fish aggregation lights for trapping.
