Pointe-a-Pitre Market (Marche Saint-Antoine)
16° 14.2′ N · 61° 32.2′ W · approximate
Pointe-a-Pitre's covered central market in the old town: spice-sellers in madras headscarves, vanilla, rum punch mixes, fruit and vegetables, with the fish market on the Darse waterfront nearby.
Practical
Coordinate: the covered market mapped in OpenStreetMap as 'Marche central couvert' (way 65837862), next to the spice market (way 41158105); OSM gives opening hours Mon, Wed, Fri 7am-5pm - confirm locally, as stalls are busiest early in the morning. The fish market (Marche de la Darse, node 11115386550) is on the harbour by the ferry quay. About 3 km from Bas-du-Fort: taxi or bus. Noonsite: provisioning is of a very high standard, with several fresh produce markets in town.
