Fresh seafood remains the order of the day at this market, as it has for almost three centuries. Everything from Alikan oysters (their pink pearls since removed) to jigsaw sharks shows up here over the course of a week.

Additionally, many fishing boat captains sell off other wares they uncover in the course of their work, as their wide fishing nets and bottom-scraping crab cages occasionally drag up something of exquisite value or unique rarity. As such, ancient artifacts, giant squids, curious deep-sea growths, and other assorted and sometimes dangerous jetsam occasionally makes it way into the market’s stalls.
