Thursday Food market

About

The Thursday Market rotates locations around Koh Lanta so everyone on the island has easy access to fresh produce. Located near Saladan on Thursdays, it's the same stalls and vendors each week, just in different spots—locals joke it helps them keep track of the day. Expect abundant vegetables, tropical fruits cheaper than you'd find back home, fresh seafood on ice, and Thai curry pastes and spices. Skip the meat here; stick to early morning for the freshest shrimp. It's an authentic, no-frills wet market where healthy eating is genuinely affordable.
