Part wet market. Feels like its a bit more for locals.

The inside of the market is generally clean and organized. Fresh seafood, beef, pork and poultry. Vegetables and fruits are also fresh. Local seafoods like the parrot fish and groupers are common. Some lobsters and squid is also available. Awesome experience just roaming around and see locals doing their daily activities.

A really fun place to visit for some authentic Filipino character in Coron. This market sells the catch from the local fisherman and lots of fresh vegetables (not so much fruits). It is interesting to see all the stalls and the products that people are selling. It is not too crowded with tourists. We did not buy anything as there is a strong smell in the whole market and the hygiene is not very good. Still, a nice place to visit!

Sanitary conditions could definitely be improved, and the smell inside is terrible. But there is a great selection of fish, seafood, and fruits and vegetables.

There is an incredible variety of food here, from pork, to chicken, to every kind of seafood, to every kind of fruit and vegetable! If you want it, you can probably find it here. It's all fresh and ready to cook. Check out the pictures and videos.

This place is worth a visit. It has so much character that I found it a little mind-blowing.
The staff of all ages are all very polite and helpful.
We went here to purchase items for a BBQ.

It's the typical public market. It's close to the boulevard /Lualhati Park where tourists come and go for their island hopping tours.

Meats and seafood are open quite earlier than the rest. Other stalls usually open at 6 or 7 in the morning and close at 6 in the evening.

On Sundays, they operate half days only.

It's hard to find pechay here.

Before going to an island tour we bought our foods from the market. What I can say is that their prices are a bit higher than in Manila co'z as per the store owner their goods (fruits and vegetables) are from manila and from neighboring provinces. The prices of seafood are okay. They also have scarcity of ice because of rotational brownout. Most of the stablishments have their own generator.

Nice market to grab some fruits and fish before heading out for island hopping. The fish/meat odour is quite unpleasant but partly to be expected, I guess, when visiting a market like this in the high heat.

The market is one you’d expect from a far flung island destination. You see fishermen bringing their catch at about 7 AM and they come and go. We’d wait for a good catch, and ask for the restaurant that can cook for you. At about 200 pesos a dish, they’ll cook it simple and nice. Just make sure you buy the veggies and condiments from the stall close by. I’ll post some photos of Tita who said yes to have our fish, shrimp, crab cooked for us. Just show a photo of sauteed or fried in case of communication probs….. we had to buy fresh fish and tons of veggies because we’re traveling with the old folks . They need low sodium fish diet….oh, and that stall we found is the oldest food vendor there. It’s not a glamorous stall but you buy all the ingredients (even oil) from a stall next to it and you know you’re getting the good stuff. He can also roast baby eggplants and fish. We are happy we found a great deal here and my parents are happy. No stomach issues. We are simply pleased…..

Each day fisherman will bring back what they got, if you are lucky enough, you’ll find live fish/crab/lobster. Live seafood usually sales within minutes.

It's a very local Market!Full of fresh fish meat, fruits and vegetables!Everything is outside, there are no fridges apart of the Ice cubes on some of the stuff! We have bought some fish, prawns and mussels for the boat tour we had the same day, everything was fine!
It's a very dusty area as it's nothing around the market apart of red soil tricycles running around!

A place of good commerce, fresh catch from the sea, local products and wonderful native people. The market gives you a feel of simple life in Coron, and the amity of locals.

You can buy a variety of goods, from fish, fruits, vegetables, native delicacies and yes, Cashew! Coron has a special recipe of roasted and flavored cashew nuts.

People in the market are honest and fair, never abusive of their guests. There are also indigenous people selling shells and sea weeds who are very friendly, gentle and kind.
