Great place to buy fruit and veg. Can't get fresher. Plus flowers veggie chips etc. Food section at back large servings for really cheap price. Real local fare. Curries, fish meat stews with cassava etc. All friendly and just remember to bring your bag.

Not to be missed. Wander through this colourful, vibrant fresh produce market. See the local fruit, vegetables and flowers. Buy some fresh fruit to take back to the hotel or for a day trip. And on the bay promenade side there are little food stalls cooking to order some hearty meals at a great standard low price. I enjoyed several lunches here. There is a limited selection but they were all tasty, and a treat to eat the local produce at the markets. Tried the beef brisket, beef steak, beef curry and fish curry. All the meals I had were served with rice, root vegetables and salad. Being a country of islands I expected the seafood to be always good but in Vanuatu the beef is special and I often found it to be more reliable (i.e. the fish I had at two places was rather hard/rubbery/bland but there are seafood restaurants where it would be better). These wonderful markets are also a place to meet and talk to locals.

A must visit when in port villa, the market is the heart of this town and you can see and try all the beautiful produce there is. I recommend the taro chips as a snack. You can also try local cuisine that the mamas are preparing at the waterfront side of the markets.
