Mercado de Nuestra Señora de África
Best time to visit
Weekday mornings, especially 09:00-11:00, when stalls are fully stocked and local shoppers are present. Late weekend afternoons get crowded and some vendors start packing up.
Budget tips
Entry is free; bring cash as smaller stalls may prefer notes and coins, though main vendors usually take cards. Save money by buying small portions to sample rather than full meals, and compare prices between stalls before buying.

About
Brze činjenice: Bright awnings and mosaic tiles flood the main hall with color, while the air mixes citrus, fried fish, and sweet pastries. Local merchants sell everything from Atlantic fish to Canary Island cheeses, and weekend crowds often spill into the nearby plazas for coffee.
Istaknuto: Behind the central fish stalls, vendors ladle mojo rojo over papas arrugadas, a salty, tangy pairing locals insist you try. At a few stalls, hand-weighed brass scales still clink as sellers call prices in lively Canarian Spanish, turning the morning market into a small living theater.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes and a light layer, nearby streets can be cobbled and breezy.
- Carry small change, many producers prefer quick cash payments for single items.
- Go early to the fish and cheese counters for the best selection, avoid the busiest lunchtime window on weekends.
- Photograph colorful produce displays and stall signage, skip overpriced souvenir booths at the immediate entrance.
