Hua Thanon Fish Market

The people in this market so kind and always smile. We just walk around and look at the fresh fish and buy some fruit. So nice to visit ☺️

Local catch of the day was available in the market like tuna, coral fish, golden threadfin bream etc. Some were seasonal. Other seafood like shrimps, prawns, squid, octopus and fish could be found there. Vegetables, eggs, snacks and some herbs were available too. Prices were relatively lower than those near the tourist area.

In Ko Samui, a market place like this is very rare to find. The market is not very big but you can get things like nuts and dry foods. My team mates bought white onions claiming that the quality is great. Nearby you can walk by the beach and take some photos. Not far from there you can reach the famous Hainan chicken rice shop.

The little fish market is nicely situated and there were plenty of seafood and veggies/spices vendors like any other wet market. I find the fish and seafood here pretty unimpressive. I’d probably get fresher seafood at Makro. I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here.

Hua Thanon Wet Market is a very small local market that is truly authentic. Hua Thanon is still a real fisherman's village, one of the oldest areas on the island, and what's caught off the coast here is still actually sold in the village. A few tourists come to visit, but it's nothing like the other more touristy markets around. I would definitely recommend a quick hour visit to the area to enjoy the beautiful ocean views in a real fisherman's village and see and enjoy the abundance of the market.

Small market with farm and sea fish, come 10 am to catch best offers.

I've been living on Koh Samui for 35 years and this market didn't change much since I was there first time.realy nice to find a place that still same as before and its a real fisherman market not just in name and the prices are not like falang prices.a real pearl.

Very interesting to see how local Thai people live and make a living. You could say this is the real fisherman's village. Plenty of local produce available. This is not at all touristy and aimed very much at local people, our tour man asked us if we wanted to see a quieter side to the island.
