Tours & Activities in Aguilas
Saturday street markets
Both outdoor markets open early on Saturday mornings and wind down by early afternoon. The Calle Murcia market starts at 8:00am, while the Zurraderas market opens from 7:45am. Stalls begin packing up from 1:30pm, so aim for mid-morning for the best selection.
Free parking is available at both sites. The street market on Calle Murcia sits on the northern outskirts of town, just outside the main ring road.
About markets in Aguilas
Markets in Aguilas run on Saturdays, when this coastal town on Murcia's southwestern shoreline comes alive with open-air stalls. Two weekly street markets operate the same morning, giving you plenty to explore in one trip.
The larger market on Calle Murcia draws around 300 stalls selling everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to clothing, leather goods, and handicrafts. A smaller agricultural market in the Zurraderas area focuses on locally grown produce, olive oil, nuts, and honey from farms across the region.
Águilas also has a historic indoor food market, the Plaza de Abastos on Calle Isabel la Católica, originally built in 1872 and rebuilt in 1928. It's open Monday to Saturday mornings with fishmongers, butchers, greengrocers, and tapas stalls. You can find more details on the Murcia Region tourism site.
What to buy at Aguilas market
Seasonal produce dominates the stalls, with citrus fruits, almonds, and locally pressed olive oil among the staples. Pick up Murcian honey, dried fruits, or regional cheeses for something to take home. The larger market also carries clothing, flowers, plants, and antiques.
If you're exploring more of the region, markets in Lorca run on different days and the city of Murcia has one of the largest market scenes in southeastern Spain.
