What's on sale
Fresh fruit and vegetables are the backbone of the Wednesday and Saturday market, alongside bread and bakery stalls and local cheese and dairy. Monday is the day for antiques and second-hand clothing and textiles, which is a different trip rather than the same one repeated. If you want both sides of the town's market scene, you need two separate mornings.

Tips for visiting
Get there in the first hour or two after the 8am opening, while the produce stalls are still full and before the midday heat. Carry cash, since card acceptance varies from one stall to the next. Both of these are the whole of the town's market offer, so for indoor food halls and the surrounding towns, see all markets in this city or the wider province page.
Where to stay in Candelaria
Staying in the town centre is the simplest option for an 8am start, since you can walk to both markets and skip the parking question entirely. For a wider choice of hotels, Santa Cruz de Tenerife city centre keeps Candelaria easy to reach, though you will want a car or an early bus to arrive while the stalls are still setting out.
