The native villagers of Guihai Village make a living by fishing, which is the traditional life of people on the sea. In 1954, under the call of the government, a mutual assistance group for Tanka fishermen was established. They went ashore to participate in socialist construction and settled in shacks by the sea. After that, the village gradually formed, and in the early 1990s, the whole village moved to the current West Coast Pier business district.

The main folk activities in Guihai Village are the Guishan Tin Haobao birthday festival and fishing prayer, which was included in the municipal intangible cultural heritage list in 2015.

The honors of Guihai Village include: Guangdong Province tourism Village, Guangdong Province health Village, etc.
