Cadiz food market
The Central Food Market runs Monday to Saturday from 9am to 3pm, with around 40 stalls selling fish, meat, fruit, cheese, and baked goods. The seafood section is the real draw. Cadiz sits on a narrow peninsula surrounded by the Atlantic, and the market reflects that with some of the freshest fish in Andalusia. There's also a food court (Rincón Gastronómico) where you can try fried fish and local tapas. For official visitor information, check the Cadiz tourism website.
