Markets in Alhaurin de la Torre
Malaga, Andalusia · 4 markets tracked
Alhaurin de la Torre has four markets: one indoor municipal market and three weekly street markets. The town sits in the Guadalhorce valley just inland from Malaga, in one of Andalusia's most productive growing areas, and that shows on the stalls. At least one market trades on every day of the week here, and Wednesday is the busiest, with two running at once. Most open around 9am and pack up by 2pm, so the shopping is done in the morning.

Municipal markets in Alhaurin de la Torre
The town's one municipal market sits on Calle Vicente Aleixandre and runs indoors across 25 stalls, the largest single concentration of traders in Alhaurin de la Torre. The counters cover fresh fruit and vegetables, fish and seafood, meat and poultry, cheese and dairy, and bread and bakery, which is the full weekly shop in one building. Being covered, it trades to the same hours whatever the weather, unlike the outdoor markets.
Street markets in Alhaurin de la Torre
Three street markets run in the town each week, and they split by what they sell rather than competing with each other. Wednesday is the produce day, when fruit, vegetables, clothing and footwear stalls set up and shoppers come in from nearby towns including Alhaurin el Grande and Coin.
Sunday belongs to clothing and footwear, and the third market deals in handicrafts, so locally made goods and gifts are worth a look there rather than at the produce stalls. Outdoor trading follows the same 9am to 2pm pattern as the municipal market, and prices are cash-friendly, so carry some.
