i thot they have banned tourists from this market? the fishmongers complained that tourist obstruct their business and may even be exposed to danger from careless fishmongers swinging fish hooks.

there was actually an area cordoned off for the tourists to take photos. i don't think the tourists are banned from the area. but having to wake up at 5am to go to the market is a very large deterrent already. no need to ban :rolleyes1 :laugh5: :hat1:

those seafood is as fresh as u could get. i suspect they use dry ice to freeze the catch before the boat comes back to port. :)
