Worth a detour from sightseeing, this year-round indoor market includes pop-up marketers hawking a particular specialty, such as small-batch pickles. At least 40 local vendors set up in stalls or at counters selling fresh produce, flowers, cheeses, artworks—everything from olive oil to oysters. Stop by Salt & Sundry for lovely handcrafted gifts. Beyond shopping, many vendors hold workshops, the market itself hosts movies at its drive-in events, held on the first and third Fridays from mid-April to late-July. There’s always something popping up.
