Morro Jable Street Market

Morro Jable Street Market, signposted locally as Mercadillo Morro Jable, sets up every Thursday from 9am to 2pm along Calle Bentejuy in Morro Jable, at the southern tip of Fuerteventura's Jandía peninsula. Around 25 stalls sell clothing, footwear and leather goods, handicrafts and jewellery, so it is a shopping morning rather than a food market.

About Morro Jable Street Market

A one-morning-a-week pitch rather than a permanent hall: a single run of stalls on Calle Bentejuy, near the older streets above the harbour end of town. Twenty-five stalls is small enough to walk twice in half an hour. The pitch is wheelchair accessible.

What you'll find at Morro Jable Street Market

What day is Morro Jable Street Market?

Morro Jable Street Market runs on Thursday, weekly, from 9am to 2pm. There is no second market day on Calle Bentejuy and no seasonal break, so the Thursday pitch is the only chance each week to walk the 25 stalls.

How do you pay at Morro Jable Street Market?

Morro Jable Street Market takes cash and mobile payments, so a phone wallet covers most purchases. Small notes are still the simplest way to pay for a pair of sandals or a piece of jewellery, and they make haggling over a price easier.
