Where to stay in Antigua
Antigua is a small, spread-out town in central Fuerteventura, so staying close to the town centre puts you within easy reach of its market and local life. Try Antigua Town Centre for a convenient base, or consider Era de la Corte if you want a charming rural option with a genuine local feel.
If you prefer more amenities or want easier access to the wider island, the coastal resorts around Caleta de Fuste are just a short drive away. Staying at Caleta de Fuste gives you a good range of accommodation while keeping Antigua's market well within reach by car.

Street markets in Antigua
The Agricultural Market of Antigua is the larger of the two, with 20 stalls selling fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, bread and pastries, and organic produce. It is a genuine working market geared toward locals stocking up for the week, and the organic stalls in particular reflect a growing interest in sustainable farming across Fuerteventura. If you are visiting from nearby Pájara or Tuineje, this market makes a practical combined trip.
The Insular Craft Fair of Fuerteventura also runs weekly and focuses entirely on handicrafts, making it a good complement to the agricultural market if you want a broader picture of local production. Stall numbers vary, but the fair showcases traditional Canarian craft work and is worth checking in advance through the Cabildo de Fuerteventura for its current schedule and location details.
