The Sydney Fish Market is a fish market in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The market sits on the Blackwattle Bay, 2 kilometres west of the Sydney central business district. It is the world's third largest fish market and a world-class tourist and cultural attraction. It was established in 1945 by the state government and was privatised in 1994. There are daily wholesale auctions for Sydney's seafood retailers. The mural inside Sydney Fish Market was designed by Australian artist Keith Howland. It is made up of about 40,000 hundred individually glazed ceramic tiles and measures eight metres long and four metres wide and was installed in 1990.
