The Charlestown Market Place In Nevis
This Lil’ Piggy went to Charlestown Market!
It’s a wee bit hard to find, but cab driver’s will know the way, as will the friendly locals. The Charlestown Market is located between the waterfront and the main road down a small side street in Charlestown. It’s not at all impossible to find on your own either.
On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays the Market fills up with fresh produce, crafty island goods and friendly locals. Farmers and vendors come into town to sell their home-grown and home-made items.
Wether you are strolling through intending to buy or not, it’s an interesting delight to witness a market style way of sale. This was a new custom to see as I went on my first Nevis Vacation.
On the side of the Market, often times there are thrift-store-type items on sale, from which the proceeds go to one of the Nevis non-profit organizations. Here you can purchase some fun island knick-knacks to take back home with you for keep-sakes.
Oh and remember… If you want to take a picture or two of the goods or locals while on a Market stroll, be sure to ask permission… Simply out of Respect 
At the Market you can see home-grown Caribbean vegetables and fruits, some varieties of which are unfamiliar and exotic to European and American visitors.
