Across the road from Kawama, this is the depot where all freshly caught seafood are loaded off boats. Apparently, this Fishery is the supplier for most restaurants in Florida (if not also other States). They have a fish market where you can purchase some of these fresh catches. They also have their Backyard Cafe where you can order informal seafood snacks and eat at outdoor tables. Overall it is a cool experience, especially for those who haven't seen a commercial fishing business in action.
