Get a glimpse of the fresh produce in Dubai away from the hustle and bustle of central Deira at the Fruit & Vegetables Market, located in the recently opened Deira Waterfront Market.

Sprawling with the largest array of fresh fruits and vegetables, this open-air hub houses plenty of the usual, as well as some of the most exotic and colourful flora in the city. Although the market is primarily wholesale, vendors will still let visitors buy in smaller quantities.

What to expect at the Fruit & Vegetables Market

The market is free to visit during opening hours, and while you're there you can also enjoy browsing around and trying samples from vendors who will happily let you taste some of their delicacies. Don’t forget to try the variety of local dates along with the more exotic fruits like mangosteens, rambutans, guavas, yams and Omani bananas.

Make the most of your time here with a splendid meal at one of the nearby creekside restaurants, a shopping trip to the surrounding souks or an abra boat ride across the water for further explorations of Dubai's historic neighbourhoods.
