About this place

Operating from 4:30-8:00 AM, this market caters exclusively to local fishermen and salt farmers, featuring ultra-fresh seafood caught hours earlier. The highlight is pla ra (fermented fish) made using traditional methods passed down for generations. Most vendors don't speak standard Thai, only the local Pak Tai dialect, but pointing and smiling works perfectly. Bring small bills as many items cost under 20 baht.
