Iznate Street Market (Sundays)
Weekly Sunday market in Iznate, a small Axarquía village known for Moscatel grapes. Fresh produce, clothing and textiles from 8am to 2pm.
Iznate Street Market sets up every Sunday from 8am to 2pm on Calle de la Fuente in this small whitewashed village in Málaga province's Axarquía region. It's a compact, cash-only market where locals and visitors pick up fresh produce and everyday goods. Get there early for the best selection, as stalls start packing up well before closing time.
What you'll find
The market splits between fresh produce and general goods. One side has seasonal fruits and vegetables from the surrounding hillsides, where Iznate is known for its Moscatel grapes, avocados, and almonds. The other side sells clothing and textiles. This is a small community market, so don't expect dozens of stalls, but what's here is local and fairly priced.

Where to stay in Iznate
Iznate is a small village, so your best bet is to base yourself in nearby Vélez-Málaga, where you'll find a good selection of hotels and easy access to the Sunday market. Try Vélez-Málaga town centre for somewhere central, or Torre del Mar if you'd prefer to be by the coast with a short drive inland on market day.
If you'd rather stay even closer to the action, a rural house or B&B in the Axarquía hills can be a lovely option, and the drive to Iznate is easy from anywhere in the area.
