Where to stay in Moya
Moya is a small town, so your best bet is staying close to the town centre, Moya Town Centre, where you can easily walk to the local market and the surrounding streets. For a bit more comfort and choice, the nearby city of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is only about 30 kilometres away and has plenty of hotels to suit every budget.
If you prefer to stay somewhere quieter between visits, the villages around Moya's interior offer rural guesthouses and country stays that give you a real feel for the area. Just make sure you have a car, as public transport in this part of Gran Canaria can be limited.
Tours & Activities in Moya
Street markets in Moya
The Moya Weekly Market is an outdoor street market running once a week, where stalls carry fresh fruit and vegetables alongside meat, poultry, fish and seafood, and a solid selection of cheeses and dairy products. It is a practical stop for self-catering visitors or anyone wanting to buy local produce directly.
The Moya Dulce Agrifood Fair operates on the same weekly basis and shares a similar product range, with fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, and cheese and dairy on offer. Its agrifood focus gives it a slightly more specialised character, worth visiting if you want to explore locally sourced food products in one place.
Planning your visit
Both markets are held outdoors, so fair weather makes the experience considerably more pleasant. If you are travelling around the island, nearby towns such as Teror and Arucas also host their own markets and are worth combining into a day trip through the northern interior of Gran Canaria.
