Description
The Dory Fleet Market had its beginning in late 1891 when an enterprising fisherman, tired of selling his fish to the wholesalers, began marketing to the public on the beach. The Dory Fleet Market, located alongside the Newport Beach Pier, still has its unique Old World charm. This unique market makes one reflect on an era when life was simpler. The Newport Beach Historical Society recognized the fleet as a permanent local historical landmark dedicated in June of 1969.
