With pristine waters, bountiful farms, and loads of passionate locals, it’s no surprise that the markets along the Sapphire Coast are packed with amazing produce and friendly faces.
The local Rotary markets in Pambula and Merimbula are always a hit, Bermagui’s markets shine with incredible freshness, and other towns in the region also light up the weekends with stalls full of goodies and fun.
Just like the towns and villages they’re in, these markets are totally unique, and there’s always something cool to find. We love how the local market organisers team up to make sure there’s a new market to check out almost every weekend, all year round, community connection at its best!
