The setting is the point here: a Sunday-morning stall row on the Rye foreshore with the bay a few metres away. The stall list leans craft and gift over food producer, and the food-stall density is lower than Red Hill or Balnarring. Best treated as a casual browse en route to or from a swim, a coffee at one of the Rye cafés, or a longer Mornington-tip day. In summer the atmosphere does the work; in winter it can be very small.
