In addition, there are also lobsters, crabs, and king prawns. The most eye-catching items at the Dubai Fish Market are the blue lobsters from Fujairah and the small sharks, which attract quite a bit of attention. The seafood here is extremely fresh, all caught directly from the sea, so you can shop with confidence. The best times to visit the market are in the early morning and evening. Aside from sightseeing, you can also enjoy authentic and delicious seafood. Near the fish market, there is a specialized seafood restaurant where you can try local specialties after your visit.
