Street markets in Calpe
The largest market is the Calpe Street Market, with 40 stalls selling clothing, footwear, handicrafts, and jewellery. It runs weekly and is the most established general market in town, drawing a steady mix of locals and visitors looking for everyday goods and accessories.
The Calpe Wednesday Flea Market is the most distinctive in character, with 38 stalls focused on antiques, books, and second-hand clothing. It is one of the better options on the Costa Blanca for browsing vintage finds, and the Wednesday schedule makes it easy to combine with a visit to nearby Altea or DΓ©nia, both of which have their own market days.
The Calp Fruit and Vegetable Street Market runs weekly with 25 stalls selling fresh fruit and vegetables alongside clothing and handicrafts. The Calpe Clothing Market offers 30 stalls dedicated to fashion and footwear. Two beach craft markets, the Arenal-Bol Beach Craft Market (22 stalls) and the La Fossa Beach Craft Market (17 stalls), both run weekly and specialise in handicrafts, jewellery, and footwear at their respective beachside locations. The seasonal Calp Artisan Market, with 15 stalls of handicrafts, clothing, jewellery, and antiques, opens during the summer months near the old town.
