The best seafood markets in Phuket showcase the island’s unique and popular cuisine. The island is naturally surrounded by the Andaman Sea, where you can find plenty of flavoursome seafood such as red snapper, prawns, cockles and the iconic Phuket lobster. Local fisherman land fresh supplies to these traditional markets every day – sometimes the catch is so fresh, it’s still breathing.
A creative quirk of many Phuket seafood markets is that you can buy seafood and immediately deliver them to an onsite restaurant, where you can have it prepared either to your taste or in a traditional Thai style. These great seafood markets are as much an attraction as a dining option in Phuket.
