Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm excited to show you the market I'm going to turn the camera around okay so we're just by the shipyards as well and so this is the Saturday Morning Market it is the most popular Market of all

the bread on this island is insane um it's all fresh uh you have to watch out because the moisture in the air it does tend to go off fairly quickly but if you want a fresh roll this is the place to get it it's absolutely delicious

the mushroom sauce I asked the lady at the Pacific fish and chip shop which we've been to I've been to there probably four times um it's really close to the house that we've rented and uh the fish is really fresh and delicious

the people here are very friendly very clean Island uh We've noticed there's literally no trash or Garbage anywhere and the people who live here are very proud um and happy to share

Today, we’ll take a walk through the amazing Saturday market. Popular with tourists and locals like this place is often very very busy. They have everything from crafts and jewellery to clothing and souvenirs as well as some really delicious treats. This market takes place every Saturday from 830 until 1130 and offer something for everyone. There is also a night market near Muri Beach and that offers hot cooked food options and is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sunday nights from 5 PM onward. Pro Tip: arrive early for either of these markets as the most popular items will sell out quickly!
