MARCHÉ AUX POISSONS
Read moreJust a few steps from the center of Boulogne-sur-Mer, the fish market is a unique place: along the Gambetta quay, the stalls, held by the fishermen's families, offer live fish and shellfish just off the boat. At the rhythm of the tides, the fishermen unload their fish and shellfish on the quays and sell them directly under the small shelters provided for this purpose. Stalls are open every day, freshness is guaranteed, you can't go wrong. You will find everything!
