The floating Market... Curacao


















The floating market is where the Venezuela boats tie up to sell their produce that they bring across. It’s 26 miles from here to mainland Venezuela and these boats cross over then stay here until their fruit is sold. It did seem as though some boats were a little more permanent and supplied by a second boat. The council have built stalls along the front where they can pack their fruit and veg with the boat tied up just behind it. As their stuff has not been refrigerated and of good quality we prefer to buy fruit and veg here when we can, as the supermarkets refrigerate theirs and it goes off very quickly.
