A fish market is a place where fresh fish and seafood are sold to the public. These markets can be found in coastal areas, where fishermen bring in their daily catch, or in urban centers, where seafood is sourced from various suppliers. Customers can buy a variety of fish, shellfish, and other marine products, often at competitive prices. Fish markets are not only about selling seafood; they also serve as social hubs where people gather to shop and interact. Many markets offer a lively atmosphere, with vendors displaying their products and sometimes providing cooking tips. Popular fish types include salmon, tuna, and shrimp.
