Where to stay in Ares
Ares is a small coastal town, so staying close to the waterfront puts you within easy reach of the market and the harbour. Try Town Centre for the most convenient base, where you can walk to most things without needing a car.
If you prefer a bit more comfort, there are rural guesthouses and small hotels just outside town worth considering. Searching for options around Ría de Ares can turn up some good spots with great views and easy access to the local area.

Street markets in Ares
The Ares Neighborhood Market is the larger of the two, with 120 stalls spread across an outdoor site. It runs weekly and focuses on books, clothing and handicrafts, making it a good stop if you are after something beyond everyday groceries.
The Market Fair at Market Square complements it with a food-forward selection that includes fresh vegetables, bread and pastries, flowers and plants, and clothing. Stall numbers here are not officially listed, but the weekly schedule means it is a reliable option for picking up fresh produce during your visit.
Planning your visit
Neither market in Ares holds an organic or eco certification, so shoppers looking specifically for certified produce may want to check nearby options in the broader A Coruña area. If you are exploring the region, neighbouring towns also hold their own weekly markets worth combining into a day out.
