Weekly Wednesday market with around 30 stalls selling clothing, leather goods, handicrafts, and books along Av la Pancha in Algarrobo Costa.
Algarrobo Costa Street Market, the Mercadillo Algarrobo Costa, sets up every Wednesday from 7am to 2pm along Avenida la Pancha in Algarrobo, a small coastal town in the Axarquía region of Malaga. Around 30 stalls line the street near the LIDL car park, selling a mix of clothing, leather goods, handicrafts, and books. Bring cash, since the stalls take nothing else, and get there early: traders start packing up well before 2pm.
