Weekly Thursday market with fresh produce, clothing and flowers on Calle la Fuente in the Axarquía village of Cútar.
Cútar Market is a small weekly street market that sets up every Thursday on Calle la Fuente in Cútar, a white village in Málaga's Axarquía region. Stalls run from around 9am to 2pm. Bring cash, as card payments aren't accepted. Get there early for the best selection, as stallholders start packing up well before closing time.
What you'll find
You'll find fresh fruit and vegetables from the surrounding farmland, along with flowers, plants, clothing and footwear. It's a compact market typical of the Axarquía villages, worth a stop if you're exploring the street markets in the area.
Where to stay in Cútar
Cútar is a small village with very limited accommodation, so your best bet is to stay in nearby Vélez-Málaga or Competa, both of which put you within easy reach of the area while offering more choice for places to sleep. If you want something closer to the coast with good road connections inland, Torre del Mar is a practical base too.
