यात्रा का सर्वोत्तम समय

In the morning between 6 and 9, the harbor is at its liveliest, as the catches arrive onshore and the auction begins. Dry season mornings are the most reliable, as the rainy period can make the roads to the harbor muddy.

बजट सुझाव

The harbor itself is free and open to the public. A small amount of cash is enough to buy freshly grilled fish, but bargain cheerfully, as the initial price asked from a tourist is inflated.

के बारे में

त्वरित तथ्य: Up to around twenty hand-hollowed wooden pirogues land here in a single day, each one made from a single tree trunk. The fish market reaches the shore by six in the morning, before the sun heats up the concrete dock.

मुख्य आकर्षण: The tidal range here reaches several meters, so the same shore is full of water at one moment and dry mud the next. What is worth watching is the moment when fishermen push the pirogues back into the water and the nets slap against the water's surface as the sea comes roaring back.

अंदरूनी सुझाव

  • Wear closed-toe shoes, as wood splinters and muddy edges hide in the cracks of the pier.
  • The golden morning light shines best from the end of the piers, where the boats are lined up in a row.
  • Avoid going during the lunch break, as the harbor is then empty and the auction is already over.
  • Ask the fishermen about boat trips, as some take visitors out to see the sea for a fee.
