All the markets on the Costa del Sol take place in the morning starting at 9am through to 2pm. Unless there is heavy rain, the morning markets will open for business as usual even if the weather is not as bright as usual. The stall holders often get to the morning market site the night before and sleep in their vans to be ready for the early market shoppers.
These markets are real Aladdin caves where you can find just about ANYTHING! You can find not only Spanish souvenirs, but watches, jewellery, scarves, ceramics, linens, table cloths, shoes, clothes (for babies, children, men and women), undergarments, plants, flowers, hammers, nails, buttons, fabric, small electronics and appliances, toys, fake designer handbags and sunglasses, Moroccan souvenirs (lamps, ceramics, small furniture, clothing...), spices, compact discs, produce, hair and beauty accessories, lighters, magnets, hardware supplies, kitchen items, and the list goes on and on. The question is really, what CAN´T you find at the street market.
