The Schuster Pier and River Market are a beehive of activity from 8 in the morning until about 2 in the afternoon. Sea Lions, cormorants, and sea gulls hang out waiting for scraps from the fishmongers. A wide variety of seafood is available. Just across the street is an arts and crafts market. Lois purchased a portrait of a Mapuche woman done by a local woodburning artist.
