Information on Benalmadena Market
Benalmadena boasts not one but two sizable outdoor markets, offering a diverse range of shopping experiences for both residents and visitors. The first of these markets takes place on Wednesdays and can be found in the upper section of the Paloma Park car park. The second market occurs on Fridays, located in the Tivoli car park within the district of Arroyo de la Miel.
These markets provide an excellent opportunity to explore and browse the various offerings, each catering to distinct tastes and preferences. The Wednesday market could be described as a lively flea market, offering an array of unique and often vintage items. In contrast, the Friday market represents a more traditional Costa del Sol market, presenting an assortment of goods that include fresh produce, clothing, accessories, and more.
With the diversity of both markets, you're sure to find something that piques your interest or strikes your fancy. Whether you're on the hunt for hidden treasures, fresh local produce, or just enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of outdoor markets, both of these options in Benalmadena promise an enjoyable and fruitful shopping experience.
