Bergen, Norway
Fish Market, Bergen

A lively fish market that boasts reindeer meat, lamb meat, and cloudberry amongst the wide array of fresh seafood.

Despite having the most generic name that a fish market could ever have, the Fish Market in Bergen is an absolute must to visit. Made up of a neat cluster of bright red tents, the Fish Market features an open-air concept like most fish markets around the world, but it also features shiny, modern facilities that make the Fish Market in Bergen a classier rendition of the typical fish market anywhere else. As you stroll around the premises, soak in the bustling atmosphere, the hubbub, and of course, the curious seafood. Here, you can fill your bellies with the freshest seafood possible, without having to catch the fish by yourself. Other than the standard selection of shrimp, lobster and salmon, you will also find yourself knee-deep in whale meat, which is technically not a fish, but smells the same sadly enough, as well as other non-seafood choices. An invigorating treat for your eyes and ears, this is one place where you won’t leave empty-handed – or empty-stomached.

Tips Before You Go
Check out the opening hours online so that you won’t end up visiting when the fish market is closed. If you cannot stand the smell of fish, then perhaps you might want to wear a face mask. It might not be of much help, but it will definitely make the smell a little less overpowering.
