The Selwyn Market is a large market located at the centre of Victoria, the capital of Seychelles. The market, built in 1840, is the main market in the whole of Seychelles. This market almost serves as a landmark and is the best place to buy fresh items. The market is set up in the central yard of Victoria surrounded by several small shops and financial services laid out along narrow streets. It is a relatively large colourful marketplace featuring varieties of items including fish, vegetable, fruits, spices, handicrafts, souvenirs and local products. Comparatively the Fish market takes a large space offering the catch of the day. Varieties of small fish including Calamari, Tuna, Barracuda, and Groupers are sold individually or in packs. However, larger fishes, including Shark, are offered as portions/ slice.

This is a must see landmark in the center of Victoria. Lots of ppl and many things to see and explore. A bit smelly b’cause of the fish but I’m sure you can stand it. Also the area around the market is worth seeing.

This is one of those old style markets so typical to sea nations and so unusual to standard inland european. For me, first time seeing such live and of course it cannot be compared to any documentary movie. Fish, herbs, spices, fruit, vegetables, essential oils and all kind of local products in one place. So colorful to the eye, so rich to the smell :) Did not have chance to visit early in the morning, yet it was very nice experience. Small market but definitelly has the spirit.
