Algorta Street Market (Mercadillo de Algorta) sets up along Calle Kasune in Algorta, a coastal neighbourhood of Getxo in Biscay, every Wednesday and Saturday from 9am to 2pm. Around 30 stalls line the street, most of them clothing and footwear traders, and they start packing away before the 2pm finish, so mid-morning is when the market is at full stretch. It is listed with the other street markets in Algorta.
What you'll find at Algorta Street Market
Clothing and textiles take up most of the 30 stalls, alongside footwear and leather goods, jewellery and handicrafts. Nothing on Calle Kasune is fresh produce and there are no food stalls, so this is a mercadillo for wardrobe and household buys.
Where to stay in Algorta
Algorta is small, so the old port area, Puerto Viejo, is the obvious base, within walking distance of Calle Kasune and the waterfront. Algorta Centre puts you nearer the metro. In neighbouring Getxo, Hotel Igeretxe sits on the seafront, a few minutes from Algorta on foot or by metro.
