Where to buy fresh fish

If you want to buy fresh local fish, hop over to the Municipal Fish Market in Riva delle Caorline from 8.30 to 11.30. Awaiting you is a feast for the eyes and the tastebuds… A truly unique experience is also watching the fishing boats slowly return to the harbour from the sea or the Lagoon, every day between 3.30 pm and 4 pm, then dock, offload the boxes of fish which is still flapping about and then perform an ancient, traditional ritual: the whispered auction. This ensures buyers that they get fish at the best possible price, fish that will then be served in one of the restaurants of the hamlet!
