Runs every Wednesday from 8am to 1pm on Camino del Campo. A 40-stall street market with fresh produce, fish, meat, dairy, bread and clothing.
Níjar Weekly Market (Mercadillo de Níjar) sets up every Wednesday morning on Camino del Campo in Níjar, Almería, and runs from 8am to 1pm. Forty stalls cover most of a weekly food shop in one morning, which is what brings people in from the surrounding countryside. It is one of the street markets in Níjar, and it is entirely outdoors.
What you'll find at Níjar Weekly Market
The food stalls run to fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery goods. That spread is why the market functions as the town's Wednesday grocery run rather than a browse.
Beyond food, traders sell clothing and textiles, and footwear and leather goods.
Where to stay in Nijar
Níjar is a small town, so your best bet is to stay centrally near Town Centre, where you can walk to the weekly market without any hassle. If you prefer a bit more comfort, the nearby coastal strip of San José has some good accommodation options and is just a short drive inland to market day.
