Fifteen stalls of handmade jewellery, leather and craftwork set up along the Paseo del Puerto six days a week, staying open until 10:30pm on Saturday and Sunday.
Alicante Port Crafts Market sets up along the Paseo del Puerto, the waterfront promenade in Alicante. Fifteen stalls trade six days a week: 11:30am to 8:30pm on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, then 11am to 10:30pm on Saturday and Sunday. Tuesday is the one day it does not run, so check the rest of the street markets in this city if that is the day you are free.
What you'll find at Alicante Port Crafts Market
The 15 stalls sell handmade jewellery, footwear and leather goods, and general handicrafts. Known in Spanish as the Mercadillo de Artesanía del Puerto, it is a makers' market: everything on the stalls falls into those three categories, so come for gifts and wearable pieces rather than groceries. It is entirely open air, with no covered hall, so the weather sets the tone.
Where to stay in Alicante
Staying close to the port puts you right on the doorstep of the market, and Eurostars Mediterranean Plaza is a solid choice with great views and an easy walk to the waterfront. If you prefer something with more character, El Barrio has plenty of smaller hotels and guesthouses within strolling distance of the action.
For a reliable mid-range option, Hotel Meliá Alicante sits right by the marina and makes getting to the market completely effortless. Wherever you stay, aim for somewhere near the port or the old town and you won't need to think about transport at all.
