Fish Market and Tuesday Bazar
About this place
The Fish Market and Tuesday Bazaar in Alanya is a great local destination that gives you a much more authentic taste of daily life in the city compared to the tourist-focused markets. You can buy fresh fish here from local vendors, and there are also a few vegetable shops and some restaurants nearby where the fish is prepared simply and fresh. On Tuesdays, the area transforms into a much larger open-air market where farmers and local producers sell vegetables, fruit, cheese, and other produce at prices that tend to undercut the supermarkets in Alanya. Our advice is to go with an open mind on quality — the fruit and vegetables are generally good, but it can vary, especially later in the day. The market is located in the Mahmutlar direction from Alanya city centre. It can get noisy and crowded on Tuesday mornings, but that's part of the atmosphere. A genuinely worthwhile thing to do in Alanya if you enjoy local food markets and want to shop like a local.
