Sydney fish market

Seafood lovers, get ready! 🦐☀️ I hit up Pyrmont’s Sydney Fish Market—where locals and tourists happily mingle over epic ocean-fresh eats. The market sits right on the water (Corner Pyrmont Bridge Rd & Bank St), and it’s a feast for both the palate and the eyes.

Must-See & Eat:
Start early—doors open at 7am, and it gets busy fast! The huge dining area outside lets you soak up sunshine and sea breeze while you chow down. A hot tip: Go vendor-hopping for different styles of seafood. The prawns are an absolute MUST—crazy juicy, sweet, and fresh. Grab a platter, settle at a communal table, and dig in.

Wildlife watch: Seagulls and pelicans hang out for a reason, but do NOT feed them or you’ll be swarmed! Snap photos, not snacks.

Extra insider moves:
Do what locals do—mix and match plates from rival stalls, then compare with new friends at the communal tables. Perfect spot for solo travelers to join locals for banter.

Getting There:
Easiest hack is to take the Light Rail to Fish Market stop, or walk from Darling Harbour. No need for a car—parking fills up fast anyway.

Food Rec:
Try anything grillable—calamari, Moreton Bay bugs, oysters, sushi, sashimi. Skip fancy restaurants and build your own tasting adventure. And yes, that prawn again is non-negotiable.

Tips:
Bring cash (some vendors prefer it), wear sunnies, and come hungry. Weather’s usually sweet, just remember the market closes at 4pm sharp!
