Markets in La Herradura
Granada, Andalusia · 2 markets tracked
The La Herradura market scene runs to two weekly outdoor street markets in this small coastal town on the Costa Tropical, between Almuñécar and Nerja in Granada province. One trades on a Friday and one on a Sunday, both from around 9am to 2pm, which makes a market morning easy to fit around a day on the bay.

Street markets in La Herradura
Both of La Herradura's markets are outdoor and cash-friendly, and neither is a food market. Between them the stalls cover clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, jewellery, handicrafts and antiques, so this is browsing and holiday shopping rather than a place to fill a fridge. The larger of the two runs around 25 stalls, and the smaller one leans towards second-hand and antique goods with numbers that vary week to week.
The 9am to 2pm window is the whole of it on both days. Traders set up in the morning and are gone by early afternoon, so arriving in the first couple of hours is the difference between the full run of stalls and a half-packed street. Full days, pitches and stall counts for each one are listed on the street markets in La Herradura page.
La Herradura belongs to the municipality of Almuñécar, which has additional markets if you need fresh produce or a wider choice of goods. You can find general visitor information on the Visit Almuñécar tourism site.
What day is the market in La Herradura?
La Herradura has a market on Friday and on Sunday, one street market on each day. Both run in the morning only, from around 9am to 2pm, and there is nothing trading on the other five days. The Friday market is the bigger of the two, with about 25 stalls.
What time do the markets in La Herradura open?
Markets in La Herradura open at 9am and finish at 2pm, on both the Friday and the Sunday. That is the usual pattern across the town's two street markets, and there is no afternoon session, so a late lunch arrival will find the pitches already clearing.
What can you buy at the markets in La Herradura?
Stalls in La Herradura sell clothing and textiles, footwear and leather, jewellery, handicrafts and antiques. Fresh produce is not part of the picture at either market, so shoppers after fruit, fish or meat need the wider choice in Almuñécar rather than the two street markets here.
Does La Herradura have a municipal market hall?
No, La Herradura has no municipal market hall. Both of the town's markets are outdoor street markets, one on Friday and one on Sunday, trading from 9am to 2pm. For fresh produce and a broader set of traders, the municipality of Almuñécar, which the town belongs to, is the place to look.
