Rosemary Beach Market Day!

On vacation ... "Market Days"  are always a fun way to experience the life and culture of the people and locals of the destination you are visiting.

When we travel to Europe visiting the "Markets" is high on our to do lists.


 The narrow street we walked from our cottage "5 rue Marsis" leading to the Saturday market in the medieval town of Gourdon ...

We can buy fresh produce, meats, cheese, wines and many other goods from homemade soaps to lavender products, olive oils, spices, etc. 

A vender selling fresh "French" garlic at one of the many markets we visited in France ...

It is always a kaleidoscope of colour ... and a social time to meet up with family, friends and neighbours at one of the many local cafés for a coffee or an early aperitif.


Baskets, baskets and more baskets at the market in Olonzac ...

On Sundays in Rosemary Beach there is a charming market with vendors selling their wares in the square. 

We drove the scenic route on Hwy. 30A arriving in Rosemary Beach mid morning, strolled through the market ... made our purchases of homemade pasta, a fresh French baguette and homemade Jumbo Lump crab cakes.

We then walked the village streets and down to the beach ... it was an enjoyable way to spend a sunny Sunday...



Enjoy our tour of the community ...
