is there a place on st. croix to buy fish and seafood directy off the boats?
The fish market in LaReine. I believe there's on in Frederiksted too. Not sure where else on STX.
There is a fisherman who docks on the east end. His dock is just before you get to Teague Bay on the east end road.. He is only open very early on Friday & Saturday morning.

In addition to La Reine and Frederiksted's boat ramp site, there are always fishermen to be found with their catch in ice chests in their truck parked along the road in various places around the island. Sometimes they have a scale clamped to their pickup truck at the back and may be holding up a fish or two to show drivers going by. They typically caught the fish the same day but may not have a stall at one of the fish markets.
Expect to find Wahoo, Mahi, Tuna (ahi), blue fish, conch, lobster, and many other types of reef fish. Some of these are more seasonal and some are available all year around.
