On a visit to the market, do carry your own carry bags and avoid coming in cars, as it is very difficult to park the cars because the lanes are too narrow and congested. It is better and safe to go to the place on a two wheeler or you can hire an auto.

Since it is a fish market, water will be clogged/flowing in the streets. Wear footwear that doesn’t absorb water as it absorbs that water and that smell will not go easily. Avoid wearing clothes that touch the ground.

Prices are generally fixed, but if you want to buy in bulk, they will reduce. As the market is a wholesale place to buy fishes at a reasonable price, people come here to make a purchase in bulk, if there is a party or function at their place.
