The fish market has begun crowded early in the morning. It's because the buyers want to get the fresh fish that directly unloaded from the fishing boat. The fishermen usually docked back to the beach at the morning, after a night at sea to catch fish and seafood. The fish market is open from 08.00 am or perhaps even earlier, and closed up at 10.00 pm.



Here you can obtain marine catches such as prawns, lobsters, squids, scallops, crabs, oysters, octopus and types of marine fish with various sizes. The prices are very influenced by the seasons and also during the celebration of New Year's Eve. During the rainy season with strong winds blowing, the fish prices will rise because fishermen did not dare go to sea and leads to reduce the fish supply. Likewise, when New Year's Eve, so much demand for fish and seafood, decreasing the supply and prices are rising.
