Markets on the Costa Blanca North

The Costa Blanca North is known for its picturesque coastal towns and lively market days. In Dénia you’ll taste the atmosphere among stalls full of fresh fish and local delicacies, while in Jávea and Calpe you can browse fashion, crafts and colourful souvenirs. Altea, with its charming white streets, and bustling Benidorm also have markets you simply can’t miss.

Whether you’re looking for olives, a leather bag or just a friendly chat with the stallholders: here a morning stroll always feels like a little adventure. But beware: you’ll rarely return home with just those few tomatoes you actually needed. 😉
