Grau i Platja Sunday Market
Weekly Sunday market with 144 stalls on Gandía's beachfront promenade. Morning hours in winter, evening hours in summer.
Rose of the Winds Square Sunday Market sets up every Sunday along Passeig Rosa dels Vents in Grau i Platja, the beach district of Gandía. With 144 stalls, it's the largest open-air market in the city. From September to June it runs 8:30am to 2pm, then shifts to summer evenings from 5:30pm to 11pm during July and August. Bring cash, as most stallholders don't take cards. The market runs year-round except 25 December and 1 January.
What you'll find
One side of the market is clothing, footwear, bags, jewellery, and accessories. You'll also find fabric rolls, plants, and household hardware. The other side leans toward food, with stalls selling fresh produce, dried fruits, olives, pickles, herbs, churros, and cured meats. It's a proper mixed market where locals do their weekly shop alongside visitors browsing the street markets in Grau i Platja.

Where to stay in Grau i Platja
Staying in El Grau puts you right at the heart of the action, close to the harbour and an easy walk to the Sunday market. The beachfront strip of La Malva-rosa is another solid option if you want to combine the market with some time on the sand.
For something more central to Valencia city, you can base yourself there and make the short trip out by tram or car, which keeps your options open for exploring the wider area.
