Where to stay in Nigrán
Nigrán is a small coastal town, so your best bet is to stay close to the seafront in Playa de Patos or the main town centre at Nigrán Centro, where you'll have easy access to local markets and amenities. The town is compact, so wherever you base yourself, getting around on foot or by car is straightforward.
If you prefer somewhere with more facilities nearby, the neighbouring resort area of Baiona is just a short drive away and offers a broader choice of accommodation while still keeping you close to everything Nigrán has to offer.

Street markets in Nigrán
Every one of the town's markets is a street market, so nothing here trades under a roof and nothing runs daily. The weekend is when the market scene actually happens: two markets set up on Saturday and two on Sunday, on Rúa Cansadoura and Rúa Cidade de Vigo respectively, close enough together that a single weekend covers both. Stalls usually open around 11am and stay out until about 8pm, which makes these afternoon markets rather than the early-morning kind.
The mix is clothing, footwear, handicrafts and books rather than food, with second-hand books, antiques and vintage stock a real presence, and a crafts strand that runs through the winter months. Cash is the norm at most stalls, though some traders accept cards. Two of the five trade on dates that are not fixed to a particular weekday, so check before making a trip for one of those.
Each market's day, address and stall count is listed on the street markets in Nigrán page. For fresh produce and seafood, which none of these five sell, Vigo is a short drive north and Baiona has options along the coast. For official local information, including changes to market dates, visit the Concello de Nigrán website.
What day is the market in Nigrán?
Saturday is the busiest market day in Nigrán, with two of the town's five street markets trading, and Sunday matches it with another two. The largest of them, Nigrán Street Market, runs to around 25 stalls. Two further markets trade on dates that are not fixed to a single weekday, so it is worth checking before you travel.
What time do the markets in Nigrán open?
Markets in Nigrán usually open at 11am and run through to around 8pm, so an afternoon visit works as well as a morning one. Those are the commonest hours across the town's five street markets, which leaves plenty of room to see a Saturday market and a Sunday one across the same weekend.
How many markets are there in Nigrán?
Nigrán has five markets, all of them street markets held outdoors, and no covered municipal market hall. Two trade on Saturday and two on Sunday, and the biggest, Nigrán Street Market, runs to about 25 stalls selling clothing, footwear, handicrafts and books.
What can you buy at the markets in Nigrán?
Clothing, footwear, handicrafts and books are the four product categories on sale across Nigrán's five street markets, with second-hand books, antiques and vintage pieces alongside them. None of the five is a fresh food market, so the town's stalls lean towards clothing rails, craft tables and book tables rather than produce.
