The Central Market, or Bazaar, in the heart of Port Louis is the beating commercial heart of Mauritius, a vibrant covered market trading since Victorian times. Its stalls overflow with tropical fruit and vegetables, spices, herbal teas and remedies, handicrafts and street food, reflecting the island’s rich cultural mix. Lively and colourful, it is a feast for the senses and the best place to shop for local produce, souvenirs and a taste of everyday Mauritian life.
