The nature of the coastline.
Indented coastlines with sheltered inlets and estuaries form ideal sites for fishing village and ports. They are also the best sites for fish breeding because of the calm waters.
Relief
The mountainous landscape of various countries in the temperate regions like Norway hinder the development of other economic activities such as agriculture. As a result, people engage in fishing to enrich their diet and earn income.
Convergence of cold and warm Ocean currents.
When a cold ocean currents meets a warm current, the temperature of water is regulated. This is ideal for the survival of fish. The convergence of cold and warm currents improves the circulation of oxygen and dispersal of nutrients for the fish. Thus fish are found in plenty where there is a convergence of such currents.
