Cambados Weekly Market

Cambados Weekly Market, the Mercadillo de Cambados, is an outdoor market that sets up every Wednesday and Saturday along the Paseo Marítimo waterfront in Cambados, Pontevedra. With 200 stalls it is the town's biggest weekly shop, running from 8am to 2pm on both days, and it covers everything from fresh local produce to clothing, handicrafts and flowers. Carry cash, since card acceptance varies from one trader to the next.

What you'll find at Cambados Weekly Market

Fresh fruit and vegetables from regional growers sit alongside stalls selling prepared foods. The rest of the 200 stalls cover clothing and textiles, footwear and leather goods, handicrafts made by local artisans, jewellery, and a section given over to flowers and plants. Everything is outdoors on the promenade, so wet Galician weather is felt at the stalls.

How to get to Cambados Weekly Market

The market runs along the Paseo Marítimo, the waterfront promenade through the centre of Cambados. For the town's other markets, see street markets in Cambados or the wider Pontevedra province page.

Where to stay in Cambados

Cambados is a small town, so staying central puts you within walking distance of the Paseo Marítimo and the old quarter. Town Centre is your best bet, with a handful of good hotels and guesthouses close to the action.

For something more comfortable, Parador de Cambados is a solid choice, set in a historic pazo in the heart of town, and a good base for the Albariño wine country.

What day is Cambados Weekly Market?

Is Cambados Weekly Market open on Sunday?

No, Cambados Weekly Market does not run on a Sunday. It sets up on Wednesday and Saturday only, 8am to 2pm on both days, so a Sunday walk along the Paseo Marítimo finds the promenade empty of stalls. Other options are listed on the Cambados markets page.
