Atuona Produce Market

9° 48.2′ S · 139° 2.6′ W · approximate

Atuona's new market sells island fruit and vegetables, fresh fish and local crafts, the best source of fresh produce between supply ships.

Practical

The 2026 brief lists a 'brand-new market: fresh fruits and vegetables, fish, and local crafts' in Atuona but gives no address. The position is the village tohua square (Tohua Pepeu, OpenStreetMap), near the artisans' fare, so ask locally for the market building and days. In 2019 food trucks sold produce and eggs in the mornings near the post office, behind the bank and opposite the hardware store (bring an egg box). Markets are busiest on Aranui days, when a craft fair runs about 9 am to 2 pm in the town centre (Noonsite).
