Street markets in Cuevas Bajas
The Cuevas Bajas Street Market sets up along the town centre streets every Saturday from 8am to 2pm. With 25 stalls, it covers a solid mix of everyday goods: fresh fruit and vegetables sourced from the surrounding farmland, clothing, footwear, and handmade items. Arriving early gives you the best pick of the fresh produce before stalls start selling down their stock. Cash is the standard way to pay, so bring small notes and coins.
If you are planning a wider market tour of the comarca, Antequera and Villanueva de Algaidas both hold their own weekly markets on different days. The markets near me tool can help you plan a route across the area.
