Tuna Harbor Dockside Market

Tuna Harbor Dockside Market Tuna Harbor Dockside Market’s open-air seafood market where you can buy locally caught seafood direct from the fisherman.
(1090)

Tuna Harbor Dockside Market’s open-air seafood market aims to be the pride of the Port of San Diego. Focused on San Diego’s historic commercial fishing and aquaculture industries, local customers – both the public and chefs, will delight in purchasing fresh caught seafood and aquafarmed seaweed direct from their local fishermen and aquafarmers. With sustainable sourcing, minimal carbon footprints, and “supporting local” on the minds of San Diego’s health and environmentally-conscious community, Tuna Harbor Dockside Market stands to benefit all. The opportunity is now here for the customer to get closer to their food sources, gain an understanding and appreciation of the industries, and for young people to become inspired to consider careers in commercial fishing and aquaculture; and for the fishermen and aquafarmers to engage in direct-to-consumer sales and have the chance for an open dialog about what they sell and their methods used for catch and harvest.

Nothing keeps us warm like a bowl of fresh chowder! 🥣

Papa Billy’s RockFish Chowder - Easy Style
1/4 lb bacon
1/2 chopped onion
1/2 pkg hash browns O’Brien (see Note)
Salt and pepper
Water to barely cover above ingredients
RockFish 1-2 Ib (cut in chunks I do 1.5X2 Inch or so)
1 can Evaporated Milk (see Note)

Using the pot you will make the soup in, Fry the bacon till done (not super crispy) and put on paper towel to drain Sauté Onion about 2-3 minutes in bacon drippings, then add the hash browns O’Brien and sauté about 1 min longer. Cover with water (probably 1 to 1 1/2 cup water) and simmer until potatoes are almost done
Add fish and cook 3-5 minutes (until it is almost done)
Last add Milk and heat another min or so, do not bring to boil. Chop Bacon and add to the chowder if you want.

Enjoy!
F/V BigFoot Chef

Note: You can substitute an additional ½ chopped fresh onion, ½ Large fresh Bell Pepper and 2-3 diced potatoes in place of the hash browns
O‘Brien and cook like above. You can also reduce the amount of water to simmer vegs and use half and half for the evaporated milk. Can substitute any white fish.

Fisher women worldwide contribute over 50% of the fisheries economy — across pre-catch, catch, and post-catch work. They are the knowledge-keepers, the market leaders, the cultural anchors of fisher communities. Yet their labour and leadership remain invisible in policy, institutions, and statistics.

Let’s rise together for rights, dignity & justice for all fisher peoples of the world! 🌍🐟





Join us in celebrating the fisher women — the backbone of our coastal and riverine communities!

Here are species you can expect to “sea” this month! These species typically found in San Diego waters during the month! BUT remember, this does NOT mean you’ll see them every weekend. The weekly catch changes every Saturday and no species is guaranteed week to week.

We’ll “sea” you tomorrow!
