The ocean has endowed open and shared spaces to coastal cities. The marine culture brought by marine landscapes affects the development and dissemination of culture and art in coastal cities and is an important source for the unique regional cultural landscapes of coastal cities. Based on the development of regional marine culture, this study aims to explore the role of marine landscapes in the cultural and artistic design of coastal cities and proposes corresponding strategies for cultural construction and development. The research results show that a beautiful marine landscape can be created in each coastal city; the basic elements of marine landscape design include conceptual elements, humanistic elements, natural elements, and artificial environment elements. The cultural and artistic design process in coastal cities must not only meet the requirements of urban development strategy, resource allocation, industrial layout, spatial pattern, and city image, but also adapt to the marine cultural atmosphere. This study provides a theoretical basis for accelerating the integration of marine culture into the cultural and artistic design of coastal cities.
