Street markets in Montgat
The Montgat Ecological Market is an outdoor street market running weekly, with stalls selling organic produce, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, and handicrafts. It is a good option if you are looking for certified eco products or locally made goods in an open-air setting.
The Montgat Second-Hand Market also runs weekly outdoors and is a separate event from the ecological market. If you are visiting on the right day, it is worth combining both street markets into a single outing given the town's compact size. See the full listing of street markets in this city.
