Landmark

Located alongside the Hay River, as you head onto Vale Island, Fisherman’s Wharf is the place to come for local arts and crafts, market-garden produce, and fresh-caught Great Slave Lake fish – or simply to sit in the sunshine and people-watch. It operates on Saturdays in summer from 10 am to 2 pm. The fresh, fried fish served up at the market is legendary throughout the Northwest Territories and shouldn’t be missed.
