A method for preserving aquatic products at sea includes the following steps: an on-board refrigeration system is used to refrigerate the antifreeze solution, and the antifreeze solution is used as a main cold source, and temperatures at centers of fish bodies drop rapidly to achieve rapid cooling and reduce activity of endogenous enzymes and inhibit proliferation of microorganisms by direct or indirect heat exchange with captured catches. The antifreeze solution contains edible alcohol, propylene glycol, glycerol, calcium chloride, sodium chloride, amino acids, Antarctic krill protein hydrolysate with average molecular weight of 50-100 KDa, surfactant and water, and the mass percentage of each component is as follows: edible alcohol 15%-30%, propylene glycol 10%-30%, glycerol 2%-15%, calcium chloride 1%-10%, sodium chloride 3%-10%, amino acid 0.1%-0.15%, Antarctic krill protein hydrolysate 0.01%-0.3%, surfactant 0.005%-0.5%, and the balance is water.
