Most of the islanders who are at least of middle age, in addition to dreading floods, have strong emotions about coming into contact with water. One Fuan Li resident says, "When I was young, loved 'catching clams and washing my pants' with my companions on the banks of the river."
中年以上的本地居民，除了不喜歡水患外，多數都有濃厚的親水情感。一位福安里民回憶：小時候，最喜歡和玩伴在河邊「摸蛤兼洗褲」；漲潮時，連大人都加入來洗澡，兼做里民社交。
