The Most Famous Markets on the Costa del Sol
an overview
Markets on the Costa del Sol
The Costa del Sol is bursting with markets where locals and visitors mingle. In Málaga you’ll find lively street markets with regional delicacies, in Marbella and Puerto Banús you’ll stumble across fashion and jewelry, while in Fuengirola and Torremolinos the stalls seem to go on forever.
From fresh fruit to flamenco dresses and from olives to antiques: these markets are a feast for the senses. And let’s be honest… you rarely leave empty-handed. Maybe with a bag of oranges, maybe with a sombrero – but always with a smile. 😄
