Fishing is an important sector in India, providing jobs for millions of people and contributing to the country's food security. This research paper helps us to understand the post-covid impact of the tourism and fishing business and its sustainable development. A conventional idea of sustainable fishing is practised at a sustainable rate, where the fish population does not decrease over time due to fishing practices. Tourism and fishing business go hand in hand. Many tourists visit India to try Indian seafood cuisine and to study the fishing business and related communities. The recent pandemic has caused a decline in tourism and fishing industries. Developing countries like India are experiencing unbalanced burdens from the COVID-19 pandemic. Severe Covid infections and deaths have left countless devastated. But we must examine the economic and social impacts in the country's coastal areas, where setbacks are likely to erase years of development gains and push many of us back into poverty. Compared to other developing countries, India has suffered tons thanks to Covid-19. An unexpected surge in Covid cases within the second wave of the SARS-COV virus has resulted in a sudden number of deaths, causing a decline in the country's population and economic activity. The severe impact of COVID-19 on these economies is also the result of heavy reliance on fishing, which is a major source of coastal regions' marine wealth and provides much-needed public revenue. The COVID-19 pandemic crisis will jeopardize these income streams due to a slowdown in fishing activity. However, it is important to note that the COVID-19 pandemic may also create a small window for stocks to recover if it leads to a global slowdown in the commercial fishing industry.
