Yeah, not a priority right now. If there are neighbours by land then fish city is in the wrong direction. If you're on an island of your own then its settling can be sped up a bit as productivity matters more, but seafood cities like this come online so much quicker with a work boat already in place, so it shouldn't be the first coastal city. Getting a wb in a coastal city with food resource on land is normally the way to go.
Just compare settling this with fish in 1st ring already waiting to be improved by wb --> chop granary with 1st ring forest --> whip granary size 2 to not having wb in place nor seafood in first ring. That's why I'd prefer 1E. Finishing Moai is a headache 1E if that's its role (could also go full GPP), but there are workarounds.
