The fish market
  • Tip Rating:


  • What To Buy: Being considered the most popular fishing village and with most of Malta's fish supplies caught by local fishermen, it is obviously that a fish market couldn't miss in Marsaxlokk.

    Every Sunday there is a fish market where tourists can buy fresh fish caught by local fishermen: swordfish, tuna and the popular "lampuki".

    On weekdays, the catch is taken to the fish-market in Valletta, but on Sundays fish is sold in Marsaxlokk's fish market.

  • What To Buy: Beside the famous Sunday fish market, a daily tourist market is also held in Marsaxlokk.

    This market is the perfect place where one can find almost anything and can also bargain: hand-made knitted crochet table-cloths, clothes or souveniers, things to remind the wonderful time spent in Marsaxlokk.
