The Fish Market just off the Salwa Road

The Fish Market is situated just off the Salwa Road and is a couple of roundabouts up from the Ramada Junction heading out of town.

You need to get there early, and my wife and I went there at about 7am one Friday morning and it was OK to park but this was probably considered late.

The fish market is a fascinating place but it is not for the feint hearted. The floor is wet so wear some suitable footwear. The traders appear nice and want to show you the fish that they have for sale. A man with a box will attach themselves to you and carry your fish for you.

Once you have got all of your fish you go to the room (see picture) where they will gut your fish for you as required.

Unsurprisingly the entire place smells of fish! Next door is the fruit and vegetable market too.

If you are going to the fish market, get up early.
