Markets in Sax
Alicante, Valencian Community
The Sax market is a weekly outdoor street market serving this small Alicante province town with a focused selection of everyday produce. Vendors set up stalls selling fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, and cheese and dairy, making it a practical stop for local shopping rather than a tourist-oriented fair. For more markets across the region, see the Alicante province markets guide.

Where to stay in Sax
Sax is a small town, so your best bet is staying close to the centre, where you can easily reach the market and explore the old town on foot. Try Town Centre for the most convenient base.
If you prefer more accommodation options or want easier transport links, nearby Villena or Elda are worth considering, and both are just a short drive away. Many visitors also choose to stay along the Costa Blanca and make a day trip inland to Sax.

Street markets in Sax
The Sax Weekly Market is the town's sole market, running on a single day each week as an outdoor stall market. The exact stall count has not been confirmed, but the product range covers the core food categories most shoppers need: fresh produce, meat, fish, and dairy. It is a straightforward, neighbourhood-focused market typical of smaller Valencian towns.
If you are planning a broader market trip in the area, the nearby cities of Elda and Villena both hold their own regular markets and are worth combining with a visit to Sax.
