About Altavista Market
Altavista Market operates Monday through Saturday from 7am to 2pm on Calle Juan Ramón Jiménez in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. This municipal market serves the local Juan Ramón Jiménez neighbourhood as a daily food shopping destination.
The market houses individual vendor stalls specialising in fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, and flowers. Unlike the larger tourist-oriented markets in central Las Palmas, Altavista caters primarily to residents doing their weekly grocery shopping.
Arriving before 9am gives you access to the best selection of fresh fish and produce. Local shoppers typically complete their market visits by mid-morning, making early hours ideal for serious food buyers.
The market accepts both cash and modern payment methods including contactless and mobile payments. Prices reflect its role as a neighbourhood market rather than a tourist destination, making it competitive with local shops.
