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 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 June of 1969.
