What you'll find at Cabrera de Mar Friday Market

Fresh fruit and vegetables are the core of the market, sold beside stalls of clothing and textiles. It is a general weekly market rather than a food hall, so the produce and the clothing rails sit in the same run of pitches across the square. There is no indoor section: everything is set out in the open, which is worth knowing on a wet Friday or a hot one.

Payment options are not confirmed for this market, so carry cash rather than relying on a card terminal at the stall.
