Floating Market

Tourist attraction ā€¢ Market

šŸ˜ For a couple of months there was no floating market due to Venezuelan embargo on export of fresh fruits and vegetables. In the meantime the embargo has been lifted and the boats with produce from Venezuela are slowly coming back. So please stop by to see the floating market for yourself. Enjoy!

    Fresh fruits and vegetables from Venezuela. We actually purchased a few mangoes here, the mangoes was delicious, there was a language barrier but we had fun with it. They accept USA dollars.

    It's not a floating market anymore Before buying anything here - compare prices with supermarket

    It's exactly what the name says. A market with fruits and vegetables with boats supplying the goods directly behind the stands. Plus there are a few souvenir shops in close proximity of the market.

    As the name suggests, this is fruit and vegetables market on small boats at Punda side Willemstad Venezuela folks brings fresh fruits and veggies from mainland. You need to bargain for better price. Nice people and place. Other side of the market, you can buy seafood. A must see place in Curacao.

    A "floating" vegetable market is along the southwest side of Waaigat, a bay in Willemstad, CuraƧao.

    Itā€™s no longer a floating market, apparently it was up until before COVID, now itā€™s simple tables under tents, a couple fruit stands and a couple souvenir and thatā€™s all
