Fish
Fresh fish is surprisingly hard to find in Cancun. You will have
to be quite observant to select the fresh catch from the old. Many
varieties of good frozen shrimp are available. Check frozen shrimp
carefully for signs of age -- black stains along tails. When eating
in restaurants, always ask for the catch of the day. Most fish served
in the Hotel Zone is frozen.
Pescadería La Marinera
Downtown, Calle Cedro about a block in from Av. Tulum in Mercado

Super fish market
A full-service fish market that sells to hotels and restaurants
as well as the general public, this is where we usually buy our
fish and shrimp. It smells clean and looks clean and the fish is
always as fresh as it can be in Cancun proper, usually no more than
24 hours from the sea.
