Zarautz Monthly Market

Zarautz Monthly Market, or Mercadillo de Zarautz, sets up every Saturday morning on Klabelinsoro Kalea in Zarautz, running from 9am to 2pm. The name is misleading: the market is a weekly Saturday fixture, not a monthly one, and its stalls deal in clothing and footwear rather than food.

What you'll find at Zarautz Monthly Market

Clothing and textiles make up most of the pitches, with racks of everyday wear and seasonal pieces to work through. Footwear and leather goods are the other half of the market, so shoes, bags and jackets are worth a look. Those two categories are the whole of it, which makes this a browsing trip rather than a stop for lunch or a shop for produce.
