Marche de la Darse (Pointe-a-Pitre Fish Market)

The fish market on La Darse, the old inner harbour at the heart of Pointe-a-Pitre beside Place de la Victoire, where the fishing boats land their catch.
Practical
Position: 'Marche de la Darse (poissons)' in OpenStreetMap (node 11115386550), at the head of La Darse (node 1793938131). The central covered market (OSM way 65837862, listed Mon, Wed, Fri 7am-5pm) and the spice market are a few blocks west. La Darse is a working harbour for fishing boats and ferries; no source we found confirms visitor berthing or anchoring for yachts in the darse, so most crews come by taxi or bus from Marina Bas-du-Fort (about 2 km). Go early for the best fish.
