Thursday Market of Vinaròs, known locally as the Mercat del Dijous, sets up every Thursday from 8:00 to 14:00 along Passeig de Fora del Forat in Vinaròs. Around 40 stalls line the seafront promenade, selling fresh produce, fish, meat, clothing and bakery goods.

What you'll find at Thursday Market of Vinaròs
The market splits between food and general goods. On the food side you'll find fruit and vegetables, locally caught fish and seafood, meat and poultry, and bread from local bakeries. Vinaròs is known for its langostinos, so keep an eye out at the seafood stalls. The other half covers clothing, textiles and household goods. It's one of two street markets in Vinaròs that run on Thursdays, the neighbouring Mercadillo de Vinaròs leaning more towards clothing and crafts.
Where to stay in Vinaròs
Vinaròs is a small coastal town, so staying near the centre puts the Thursday market a few minutes' walk away. Town Centre keeps the market, the beach and the harbour all within reach on foot, Hotel Roca is a reliable mid-range choice in the same area, and rooms along the Seafront suit anyone who wants to pair the market with a morning walk by the sea.
