Where the fishing boats come in every morning and the catch is sold on the spot at low prices
Long Hai Market lies in the centre of Long Hai commune, Ho Chi Minh City, one of the long-established fishing villages of the former Ba Ria - Vung Tau, and the fish market here shows that rhythm of life clearly: the boats come in to the landing every morning and the seafood is sold right there at the market. According to many local travel sites, seafood prices at Long Hai Market are usually noticeably lower than at other seaside destinations in the region, because this market mainly serves fishermen and local residents rather than acting as a retail outlet for tourists.
