The fishing market of

Mindelo (Sao Vicente island)

seems to support an entire

community outside its wall.

This community has the task

to clean the low price fish

when the market is open.

Women, men and often the

whole family carries out this

job.

The fishing market in

Plato (Praia, Santiago

island) is located in a small

building on the left side of

the market. Women are the

dominant figures behind

stalls.
