Sydney Fish Market is a major tourist attraction for its abundance of fresh tasty seafood you can buy raw or cooked.
But it’s not a tourist trap, many locals go there to buy their seafood as well. My mum included. She loves buying fresh blue crabs here.
So here’s my guide for anyone who plays to go for the best possible experience.
HOW TO GET THERE
You can drive, but if driving isn’t an option then take the light rail from central station to “fish market”.
The market is just across the road from the station. It won’t be very obvious unless you go in the morning, and then you may see the crowds of people walking in the same direction to the market.
WHEN TO GO
Early.
Go before noon, because things start dying down after noon.
THINGS TO BE AWARE OF
BIRDS.
There’s so many birds that are use to humans at the market. A.K.A they’re going to steal your food at any chance presented to them.
The best way to avoid this is to not sit outside, however that’s easier said than done because most of the seating is outside.
…just keep you eyes out for birds.
THINGS TO TRY
There’s honestly so much to choose from, but I would say if you do come to eat, get the following:
- Sashimi, the fish sold at the market is always fresh which makes the sashimi deliciously sweet.
- Grilled fish and other Aussie classics. Anything traditionally eaten by Australians are going to taste really good. Such as a grilled barramundi.
I got a bunch of other things you can check out by watching the video above.
![AD | 3 Things You Gotta Try when you’re in Hobart, Tassie!
There’s honestly so much to eat here in Hobart, and if you’re heading there anytime soon, here are three things to help you start your list off.
1. Visit the Salamaca markets - there are over 300 stalls and the markets are on every Saturday. Come hungry!! @salamancamarket
2. Try the curry scallop pie - we went to Richmond Bakery and got a few of these pies. Also had a couple beef ones too and they were pretty good!
3. If you love oysters, make sure you leave some time for Bruny Island, and head to ‘Get Shucked’. One of the freshest oysters I’ve had 🦪😌 @get_shucked_oysters_
To get to Bruny Island you gotta take a ferry from Hobart, and to get to Hobart,
use @skyscanner to find the best flights with the best prices – and you can use the app to look for accommodation as well 😉
