Where to stay in Sotogrande
Sotogrande is a small, upscale resort town, so staying close to the port area puts you in the best spot for getting around. Sotogrande Port is a natural base, with easy access to local markets and plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby.

Street markets in Sotogrande
Mercado de Levante, better known as the Sotogrande Sunday Market, is the town's sole market and takes place every Sunday outdoors. The stalls cover a solid mix of categories including antiques, clothing, books, handicrafts and prepared foods, making it worth a browse even if you are not looking for anything specific. Arriving in the morning gives you the best pick of antiques and second-hand books before the crowds thin out the better finds. For more information on local events and facilities, the Ayuntamiento de San Roque covers the municipality that includes Sotogrande.
Planning your visit
The Sunday schedule means the Sotogrande market fits naturally into a weekend itinerary along the Costa del Sol. There are no municipal or organic markets in the town, so Mercado de Levante is your only option, but the prepared foods stalls make it a decent spot for a late morning snack before heading elsewhere along the coast.
