The rest is more specialised: antiques and second-hand books on Saturdays, handicrafts and jewellery at the weekend craft market, and organic produce at the Sunday eco market. The summer markets at Calderón Park and Valdelagrana add stalls on the seafront side of town.

Tips for visiting
Most of the city's street markets open at 9am and pack up by 2pm, so a mid-morning arrival gets you the full run of stalls. Bring cash, since card acceptance varies from one trader to the next. The rest of Cádiz province trades to much the same hours if you are combining a market morning with a drive.
Where to stay in El Puerto de Sta María
Staying in the El Puerto de Sta María town centre puts you within walking distance of the main market pitches and the waterfront, which matters when stalls are packing up by 2pm and parking near the centre fills early on a Saturday. The Hotel Monasterio San Miguel, in a converted 18th-century monastery, is close enough to leave the car where it is.
