Markets Mauritius

Covered, it stands just in front of the bus station and the bay of Mahébourg, in a hall open to the outside and exhaling exotic scents. Even if the place is not huge, it is a change of scenery pleasure to shop there and stroll along its well-ordered fruit and vegetable stalls. You can buy fish, various spices, handicrafts, clothes and other objects of everyday life... Nearby, the stalls of the many street vendors and street vendors - fresh coconuts, freshly squeezed juice... - are lined up.

As in most markets of this type, prices are not fixed and are discussed directly with the fisherman, taking into account a number of criteria: whether or not the catch of the day is abundant, the season, the species offered for sale, the weight etc. Schedules vary, so it's best to find out the day before to avoid finding yourself in front of an empty stand - usually in the late morning or afternoon. In any case, the sale is the main attraction and, whether you buy or not, gives you the opportunity to discover the species of fish cooked in Mauritius.
