Berbera Fish Market
Bedste tid at besøge
Come at 6:00-7:00 AM, when the boats are just returning and the liveliest auction begins. By 10:00 AM most of the fish has already been sold, and the market calms down.
Budgettips
Free entry. You can buy freshly grilled fish for 2-5 dollars. Locals haggle, so feel free to negotiate the price down by half.

Om
Hurtige fakta: Hver morgen losses op til 50 tons frisk fisk, som lokale fiskere bringer ind med traditionelle både. Handelen begynder før daggry og foregår som en auktion: den der råber højest, får den bedste fangst.
Højdepunkter: Her kan man for første gang i sit liv smage hajkød, stegt direkte på gløder ved kajen. Lokale kokke tilbereder det med stærk chili og lime. Fiskerne lader en klatre op i deres både og tage billeder med tre meter lange hammerhajer, mens de stadig ligger på betongulvet.
Insidertips
- Wear shoes you don't mind getting dirty: the concrete floor is wet and slippery from scales and water.
- The best photos are taken from the pier, where you can see boats unloading sharks right onto the concrete.
- Try "sambusa" (fish pie) from the grandmothers at the entrance; they fry them right in front of you.
- Do not photograph the vendors without asking: smile, ask for permission, and they won't refuse you.
