If you like Jamaican food and clothing this is the place for you. Most of the bays were closed. The incense smell is over powering, reminded me of high school when we thought our parents didn't know we were smoking in the basement since we lit incense. The vegetable market is the best thing here. I would come just for that.
I love flea markets! And this one doesn't disappoint. It has all sorts of items for purchase but you have to be willing to search and dig. The outdoor produce area was my favorite...lots of fruits and veggies for purchase. And they'll make sugar cane juice for you on the spot as well (which was perfect for this hot summer day). We also bought incense and a necklace from a Jamaican spot (super friendly and helpful). A fun place to walk around, grab some grub and get fresh produce for a steal!
Meh... Con: 1) Too much cheap krap from China. 2) hardly any vintage furniture Pros: 1) Couple of trustworthy restaurants 2) lots of fresh veggies and fruits 3) lots of vendors with live plants
Food: 5 Customer Service: 5 Location/ Parking: 5 The flea market is situated in the heart of the Jacksonville, FL area, and we had an excellent time a few weeks ago while we was visiting the area. There is alot of vendors that are situated inside the enclosed sheltering, and more vendors outside under the hot sunny weather. Overall we had a great time just walking and looking for some antiques and little nick nats.
Haven't been to this flea market in a year. Parking is sometimes limited. I and My Wife decided to go here today. We decided to have some Mexican food. We decided to eat from Antojitos Mexicano food place. My Wife decided to have the Menudo, which She said was fresh and hearty. It was also hearty and filling as well. She also decided to have a Beef Lengua Taco too, and on the side an Elote, which was excellent. I decided to have a Beef Lengua Torta, which was excellent and an Elote on the side, which was excellent. To drink We both had cold and refreshing Horchata, which was authentic as well. Will return here again.
The Beach Blvd Flea Market has just about everything you could possibly need or want. We went on a Sunday which was a slower day as not all the booths were open. But I'm not into crowds so I was a happy shopper. There were two bigger stores in the market which sold anything from clothes, underwear, bungee cords, socks, cooking utensils and bowls, school supplies, sheets, little umbrellas for your hat, pretty keychains, tools and much much more! There was also a farmers market with so many different fruits and vegetables I didn't even recognize everything LOL. I am definitely going back for the fruits and vegetables which are priced much lower than any grocery store near me. There was also an Avon vendor. There was a large amount of pots and pans in the center isle. This vendor also sold outdoor grills, but not the kind of grills you use to make steaks and burgers. These were big propane burners which would come in handy if you lose power during a storm. The majority of the vendors only accept cash with a few exceptions. So be sure to stop at the ATM on your way.
Beach BLVD Flea Market has the typically Florida flea market stuff. New and used goods, produce, antique(old stuff), arts and crafts, etc. My favorite is the Jamaican and Taco stand. It's not the BEST food, but it's darn good. NOTE: There's two taco stands. They have difference prices. I ate at the one that has $3 tacos, so I can't speak on the one that serves them up for $3.50 Parking is a challenge. Getting in/out is a challenge. Even when it's not crazy busy. People seem to park anywhere they can find an opening. Vendors can be a hit or miss. There's a ton of spaces that were closed the last two times we've been. Not sure if it's weather related, or just how it is. There's three rows if I'm not mistaken. It's not that large, but there's a little bit of everything here for everyone if flea markets are your thing.
Pretty cool spot to kill some time! I came here while waiting for a friend. They had a lot of vendors, although some of them literally were selling trash... I guess one man's trash is another man's treasure?? It was super hot in there but I noticed a guy hacking up coconuts and handing them to people with a straw. THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY DREAM TO DRINK OUT OF A COCONUT WITH A STRAW. Obviously I had to get one. For $3.50 you can pick your own fresh coconut, and he hacks it up to get to the juice. My advice - get the coconut when you first get there, drink as you walk around the rest of the market and head back to the coconut stand and have them split it open for you so you can eat the inside! Next to the coconuts, there was a local honey stand with SO many size options and flavors. Orange blossom, wildflower, pepper, etc. They also sold the honeycomb. I purchased a 20oz jar of orange blossom honey for $11 and a small container of wildflower honeycomb for $2... I wish they offered testers because I loved the wildflower when I got home to eat it but the jar I bought was orange blossom. Oh well its still good! There was a super cool store with tons of random items from clothing, to shoes, to kitchen supplies, to pet supplies, etc! They also have a massive amount of produce, but some of it is definitely old stuff that grocery stores sold for the low to these vendors. They have a seafood stand with raw fish, shrimp, squid etc, as well as a few food stands that offer Mexican food, seafood, fried chicken, burgers etc. There's tons to find here! Only downside is it does get a little warm inside if it's a hot day but check it out! **Basically no one in here was wearing a mask so I was a little turned off by that. Make sure you bring one if you care about protecting yourself and others!**
Nope not my bag. My mom was in town and I told her about this place and how I've driven passed it may times but never actually checked it out. We went on a Friday afternoon, around 1ish and it seem like most of the vendors were closed. There were two main vendors that sold fresh fruits that were opened, the one towards the front was the largest of the two but their produce were not marked with prices and when we asked they didn't seem very willing to help us or cared whether or not they received our business. The one towards the back and the left side of the market, with a sign that read International Market was somewhat nicer and had some prices marked. There were a few exotic produce that isn't carried at regular grocery stores but nothing I would really care to buy in the first place. The produce quality at both places seem pretty fresh though. It's a flea market, so most of the other vendors just sold used (really old) items. Perhaps we came on an off day and shops open later in the day but I would think if they close at 5 pm, the majority of the shops would be opened by noon.
First flea market in Florida and the comparison from NJ to Florida. So far Jersey crushes them in Flea Markets. Can anyone recommend a good flea market down here? I did however buy 2 pairs of sunglasses for $14 which I thought was a good deal. Originally $8 a piece, negotiable. Thought some items where over priced and didn't really have a good selection of clothing nor places to eat. People were friendly and over the area was clean.
I've been to the Beach Blvd Flea Market a couple times- but the last time was years ago. John had pointed at it on the way to breakfast and I was more than willing to poke in and see if there was anything of interest. I find Flea Markets can surprise you from time to time. We entered on the South-East side of the market and found ourselves in front of a gaming/ arcade- interesting and not at all what I would have expected. We walked down each row and I'm not sure if this was considered a normal weekend- but a lot of booths were closed. There were still plenty open- ranging from barber shops (that were crazy busy with lines!), vape stores, junk booths (or treasure- you judge), tools, couponer grocery, kitchen supplies and much more. One shop had tons of new power tools, vacuums, lawn equipment and more- higher priced items that ranged in pricing, marked down from a traditional retail store. I actually might go back for a power tool batter that would be $20 less than a regular store if it's the right one for my tools. There are several produce stands- kind of a must for any flea market- most are at the front (Beach Blvd facing) or on the West rows. And a honey guy! I love honey- I have too much honey, I buy honey every time we travel and also locally- Hi my name is Crystal and I am addicted to honey. And I bought 3lbs of it from the guy for an amazing price of $20! And he is the bee keeper- my preferred way of buying honey- from the source! Even though we had just had breakfast, John was drooling over all the delicious smells coming from various Latin and Mexican restaurants in the market. For me- this is a once in a blue moon thing- flea markets that is. I love a good bargain, but sometimes they are hard to find!

I have been seeing an ad for a Plant booth on FB. My bff and fellow plant border and I to see if the ads were true. First we roamed the aisles of the market on an early Sunday morning. Despite living less than 3 miles away I had not been to the Flea Marker in years. We entered on the East side and when we reached the West side I spied PLANTS. At first I was somewhat disappointed by the size. The owner then said there is more outside. Our plant loving hearts missed a beat. The collection of plants is massive and the prices fair Check out the whole market. There are many interesting stalls holding treasures. If you are a plant lover like me park on the west side to keep from hauling your treasures to the other side of the market. Happy Shopping!!' read more

Such a lovely Saturday had to go out and discovering treasures. Parking can be a little hectic but it's free so take your time. Fresh produce and a dollar store... actually several dollar stores stretched over several buildings mostly selling accessories and beauty supplies. Outside of nail polish I probably would never grab anything else from them. $1/carton strawberries, 2 small baskets of pears for $5, 2lbs of bananas for $1, bag of grapes & oranges for $2, 5 apples for $2, 4 plantains for $1. I did not find that here. Most items were overpriced. But cheaper the further back you walk. All areas close to parking were more expensive. Found one Caribbean store and was very disappointed in inventory. Barely anything in the shelves and the owner was on the phone. A lot of standoffish / rude vendors. Aren't they suppose to be friendly and inviting? But if something is broken there is someone at the market that can fix it. Many stands advertising phone repair. Cheap and quick. And a great stop for anyone that collects cds and records lots of great finds. But something is just missing. (Artwork, atm, organized food court, discount brand items, custom apparel, natural health/beauty items, etc) I remember seeing a barber shop - so why not a spa set up for braids, waxing, or nails. And for being so close to the beach why weren't there vendors selling beach/summer/spring items? I'll probably stop in a few times every month to see if there are any changes. read more

We got a good deal on hats from this Flea Market. We were getting compliments on our hats and we told them that we got them at this Flea Market. They are good quality, solid color hats. The only downside is that they are cash only, so make sure you carry cash for that specific vendor. read more

This flea market is great for anything from fresh produce to gently work kids clothes in some shops. I personally visit for my very local honey. Sam's bees & honey is made right by the Dames Point bridge. Can you say Duuuuuuuval!!!! Ok, I couldn't resist. Great prices and many flavors. I scored a 24 oz for $11. Overall the flea market is staple in Jax. read more

I have been coming here for a long time. I get a booth about once a year to de-clutter. I usually come with my sister. We rent side by side($29.00 per booth now), you can also rent an extra table for a small fee. They have new ownership now. I believe the storage facility next door bought it. You have to pay at least a week in advance. Parking can be a little like a zoo sometime's. Just be patient, something will open up. They have several concession places to eat. They have a big open area with a stage near Doo Wops(they sell music). They even had Santa Claus at the stage area on Saturday, visiting with the children. I see pros and cons, but this is my favorite flea market to come to, because it is close to my house. They have rows listed "A-D". Row D is where I always rent. They have a wonderful assortment of fruits and vegetables on row D. They seem to keep the bathrooms pretty clean. If you need to have a garage sale, I recommend you coming here in Saturday. They have pretty high traffic on Saturday. Sunday's are a little slow. Come check them out! read more
