Staying in Balcon de Europa puts you right at the heart of things, with the Sunday market and local shops all within easy walking distance. The Hotel Balcon de Europa is a solid choice if you want a central base with sea views to come back to after a morning browsing the stalls.

The Nerja Sunday Flea Market is the largest of the three, with 120 stalls selling antiques, clothing, footwear and handicrafts every week. It draws a noticeably different crowd to the Tuesday market, with collectors and browsers picking through vintage and second-hand goods alongside new items.
The We Love Nerja Market rounds out the week with a focus on handicrafts and jewellery. Stall numbers have not been confirmed, but the market runs weekly outdoors and tends to attract makers and independent designers.
