Sassoon Dock

A Wonderful place to visit in South Bombay and One time experience of visiting one of the largest fishing market in Mumbai. Beautiful street Art fishing boats are the main attraction of the place

One of the best place for the fish lover. From prawns to sword fish you will get varieties of fish here. There are auctions also for fish baskets which happen between 4.00 to 5.30 (only if you want it in a bulk quantity). I visited this place on Sunday at 5.30 but still there are a lot of rush. Remember one this if you want to negotiate, do the cold negotiation by showing your fingers (if you want it for ₹400 then show 4 fingers) that way they will give you without letting the price to others. Sunrise here is also amazing 🤩. Must visit this place.

Fresh seafood galore: You’ll find super-fresh fish and shellfish directly from the boats — great if you’re buying early morning. Wanderlog Authentic local experience: Lots of action, colourful fisherfolk, bargaining, and real Mumbai hustle you don’t see in malls or restaurants. Lonely Planet Photography & culture: The place is busy, vibrant, and often featured in street photos and culture projects (like the art murals nearby at Sassoon Dock Art Project). SceneLoc8

If you're up for exploring the place and have some pics then you'll find this place boring. I visited in morning 7am and nothing was there which could make me feel lively there. You can definitely get some good fresh seafood. This place stinks so bad and quite unhygienic.

The fish market is located at the Sasson Pier. The pier is named after the Jewish merchant and philanthropist David Sasson, who also built a large library, a synagogue, and more. The fish market is very busy, it is very difficult to walk on the pier due to the crowding. The fishermen bring their fish to the pier and merchants of all kinds buy and sell the fish. The hustle and bustle is very big. Very colorful and interesting. We arrived before six in the morning.

A must visit place to understand and see real life of Market and Fisheries

A thriving fish market and business centre for fresh seafish. The fish market (covered with a shed) is cleaned everyday after the sale is over. There is a police checkpost for constant vigil. 3 budget eateries are located just outside the dock for breakfast and lunch.

Came at 6:30 in the morning and was still considered late, awesome experience of authentic Mumbai, now I know where the expression "like a fish market" comes from. Must come for any visit to Mumbai . Can find all types of fish, crabs, shrimps, etc....be prepared to smell like fish afterwords :) 10/10 recommend!!
