Without Lifting A Finger

The Dory Fishing Fleet is a beachside fishing cooperative located in the city of Newport Beach , California . It was founded in 1891 at the base of what was then McFadden Wharf , now known as the Newport Pier . The Dory Fleet is a registered "historical landmark" and is the only one of its kind in the United States and is considered the last beachside cooperative of its kind in the United States . The day's fresh catch is hauled onto shore every morning around 9:00 AM and gourmet restaurants , shops and private citizens arrive to purchase the bounty. Newport Beach's Dory Fishing Fleet has a long history and tradition. 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.

  Before we walked over to Charlie's for breakfast we strolled through the Dory Market (mostly empty except for a few crabs and shark steaks) and watched the surfers (beautiful day, the "king tide" was giving them a good ride).
