Sagay Public Market
Description
Main public market serving Sagay and surrounding coastal barangays. In Sagay, a north-coast city with a large marine reserve offshore. Public markets here run hardest before 8am, when the night’s catch is in and upland produce has just come down; by late morning it’s mostly dry goods and leftovers. Prices are negotiable in the wet and dry sections. Worth a stop for muscovado, tablea and native sweets at market rather than shop prices — bring small notes and your own bag.
Tips
The marine reserve offshore is the draw; seaweed and fishing here connect directly to it. Boat trips to Carbin Reef leave from the port.
Stops
Northern Sugar & Seafood Corridor
How to get there
On the main highway route through this part of the island; Ceres buses and jeepneys serving the corridor pass through.
Best Times
Early morning — markets, landings and roadside stalls all run hardest before 8am.
