Merkaderes Benalmádena runs every Saturday from 10am to 2pm on Plaza del Alguacil in Benalmádena Pueblo. Fifteen stalls trade in handmade craft, jewellery and leather, sold on circular economy lines, which makes it a narrower proposition than the other markets in Benalmádena. It sets up outdoors in the square and is packed away by two.
What you'll find at Merkaderes Benalmádena
Fifteen stalls is a ten minute walk round rather than a morning's shopping, and the range is deliberately narrow: handicrafts, jewellery, and footwear and leather goods. No produce, fish or cheese stalls are listed here, so treat it as a browsing stop for handmade pieces rather than a grocery run. Traders set out in the open square, so a wet Saturday is worth checking on before the drive up.
Where to stay in Benalmadena
Staying in Benalmadena Costa puts you close to the seafront and within easy reach of the market. The Hotel Torrequebrada is a solid option if you want something comfortable with good transport links into the area.
If you prefer to be closer to the older part of town, Benalmadena Pueblo is a quieter base and a short walk from where the stalls set up.

What day is Merkaderes Benalmádena?
Merkaderes Benalmádena runs every Saturday from 10am to 2pm, all year, on Plaza del Alguacil in Benalmádena Pueblo. The pattern is weekly rather than a first or last Saturday of the month, so there is a market every week, and the 15 stalls are packed away by early afternoon.
What is sold at Merkaderes Benalmádena?
Merkaderes Benalmádena's 15 stalls sell handicrafts, jewellery, and footwear and leather goods, traded on circular economy lines. It is a craft market rather than a food one: no produce, fish or cheese stalls are listed, so come to browse handmade pieces rather than to shop for the week ahead.
Where does Merkaderes Benalmádena set up?
Merkaderes Benalmádena sets up on Plaza del Alguacil in Benalmádena Pueblo, the inland old town, not on the coast at Benalmadena Costa or in Arroyo de la Miel. The square is open air, and the stalls occupy it from 10am until 2pm every Saturday before clearing.
Do you need cash at Merkaderes Benalmádena?
Yes, bring cash to Merkaderes Benalmádena. No card payment is confirmed for its 15 stalls, and acceptance at a small open-air market varies from one trader to the next, so cash is the safe assumption for the Saturday morning on Plaza del Alguacil.
