Dampa is a wet market where you can buy fresh seafood caught that morning. This was an interesting experience... we're used to fish markets where the fish is typically chilled or frozen with ice. The reason they call Dampa a wet market is because the fish and shellfish are not iced or frozen -- instead, they're kept wet throughout the day. Here you can buy seafood while it's still alive (including shrimp). After you buy the seafood, you can take what you've bought to the neighboring restaurants and have it cooked for you
