Typical cost
Free to enter
Punanga Nui is best known for Saturday mornings, but the site is also used for evening markets at some points in the year, with food stalls and live music.
What it is like
Smaller and more relaxed than the morning market, and more about eating than shopping.
Before you go
Schedules vary by season and are not always well advertised. Ask at your accommodation on the day rather than planning around it a week ahead.
💡 Local tip
