Orio Street Market
Weekly Thursday market in Orio with around 25 stalls selling clothing, handicrafts and books. Runs 8am to 2pm on Arrantzale Kalea, cash only.
Orio Street Market sets up every Thursday from 8am to 2pm on Arrantzale Kalea in Orio, a small fishing town on the Gipuzkoa coast. Around 25 stalls line this central street selling clothing, textiles, handicrafts, and books and magazines. Payment is cash only, so bring euros before you arrive. Get there early for the best pick of the handicrafts and clothing, as stalls start packing up by midday.
What you'll find
The stalls split between everyday clothing and textiles, handmade crafts, and books and magazines. It's a neighbourhood market rather than a tourist attraction, so prices are grounded and the pace is relaxed. A children's play area makes it practical for families, letting parents browse while kids keep busy nearby.

Where to stay in Orio
Orio is a small fishing village, so accommodation options are limited, but staying right in Town Centre puts you a short walk from the market and the waterfront. For a bit more choice, the nearby towns of Zarautz and Getaria are just a few minutes away and easy to reach by car or bus.
If you want something close to the action, look for a rural guesthouse or small hotel along Orio Riverside, where you'll get a genuine feel for the village. Booking early is a good idea, especially in summer when the Basque coast gets busy.
