Street markets in La Cala de Mijas
The La Cala de Mijas Ecological Market is the town's dedicated organic market, running weekly outdoors with stalls selling fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, organic produce, bread and pastries, and prepared foods. It's the best option if you're looking for locally sourced or eco-certified goods on the coast.
The Calypso Street Market is the largest market in town, with 30 stalls running weekly outdoors. The focus here is on clothing, footwear, handicrafts, and antiques rather than food, so it complements rather than duplicates the ecological market.
The Plaza de la Tenencia Solidarity Market is an occasional outdoor market held in the town square, with stalls offering handicrafts, clothing, jewellery, and antiques. Because it runs irregularly, it's worth checking ahead before planning a visit around it. For current schedules, the Mijas tourism website publishes updates on local markets.
