Hillsborough Public Market

12° 29.0′ N · 61° 27.4′ W

The fruit-and-vegetable market in Carriacou's small capital, a short walk from the jetty. It's the anchor of a provisioning run that also takes in the town's supermarkets, deli and fish market.

Practical

Coordinate is the OpenStreetMap 'Hillsborough Public Market' node. Ade's Dream says a local fruit and vegetable market sits behind its building on Main Street. From Tyrrel Bay, flag down the No. 10 minibus on the road (Noonsite), or anchor off Hillsborough and land at the jetty. Shopping nearby is listed separately: Patty's Deli, Ade's Dream supermarket, John's Unique supermarket, Matheson's, Kim's Plaza, the Marketing Board (MNIB) and the fish market. Noonsite also lists Bullen Vena & Sons; carriacou.biz lists Bullen & Sons drugstore in Hillsborough. Banks, the tourism office and the fuel station are separate entries. Hurricane Beryl hit Hillsborough hard in 2024, so stall days and hours may have changed. Ask locally which days are busiest.
