I don't know what the best site is for this the best site, but there are
auctions for domains hosted by godaddy and ebay:

https://auctions.godaddy.com/
https://www.ebay.com/b/Sell-Domain/3767/bn_7023258241

This article lists 15 other sites for listing domains for sale:

Perhaps the best place to advertise would be on the homepage of the domain
itself, since any stray visitors to that domain might be interested in
purchasing it.
