Markets in Santa Pola
Santa Pola market days are a highlight of this Costa Blanca fishing town. With one municipal market and two weekly street markets, you can shop for fresh seafood landed at the local port, leather goods from nearby Elche, and seasonal produce grown in the Vinalopó valley.
The Mercado Central opens Monday to Saturday and is the go-to spot for fish, meat, fruit, and cheese. On Mondays and Saturdays, open-air street markets set up around town with clothing, footwear, flowers, and crafts. Saturday is the biggest market day, when both street markets run alongside the indoor hall.
