Seafood Supply Surge

Fish markets are witnessing a noticeable abundance and variety of seafood, with Omani and Pakistani fish widely available after the fishing ban on safi, shaari, and andaq came into effect on April 1.

This has helped boost supply and provide consumers with multiple alternatives. Prices for safi currently range between 2.5 and 3 dinars per kilogram, depending on quality.

Other options such as Bahraini hamour and hamam fish are also available, although many customers continue to prefer Omani safi and shaari.
