Where to stay in Candás
Candás is a small coastal town, so staying close to the waterfront puts you within easy reach of everything. The area around Town Centre keeps you a short walk from the harbour, the local market, and the seafood bars along the promenade.
If you'd prefer a bit more comfort, Seafront has some good options with sea views that make the stay feel like more than just a market trip. Either way, Candás is compact enough that you won't need a car to get around once you're settled in.
Tours & Activities in Candás
Street markets in Candás
The Candás Weekly Market is the largest in town, with 40 stalls set up outdoors each week. It focuses on clothing and footwear, making it the go-to stop for everyday shopping rather than food.
The Candás Artisan and Ecological Market is the most distinctive of the three, specialising in organic produce, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and handicrafts. It is the best option for visitors looking for locally sourced food and handmade goods, and it qualifies Candás as one of the towns in the region with a dedicated eco market.
The Candás Christmas Market rounds out the calendar with a seasonal outdoor event selling clothing, footwear, handicrafts, and prepared foods. It adds a food dimension that the Weekly Market lacks, and its mix of crafts and street food makes it popular during the festive period. Nearby Gijón and Avilés offer larger market selections if you are planning a wider market tour through Asturias.
