The best time to come is before noon, when the stalls are full of freshly delivered wool and there are still few people. Morning light best reveals the colorful patterns, and the craftswomen have time to chat.

Γρήγορα στοιχεία: Here craftswomen spin and weave products from local wool, and a single shawl can bear up to 20 different colored patterns. The market operates daily, and the stalls are constantly bustling with locals and visitors from the surrounding islands.
Αξιοσημείωτα: Just a few meters from the stalls, colorful houses stand on stilts, so as you buy a woolen blanket you see how the fishermen's quarter really lives. Watch how the craftswomen spin threads by hand on wooden spindles, threads from which traditional maritime patterns are born in just a few hours.
Εσωτερικές συμβουλές
- Choose woolen goods in the morning, when the craftswomen have just brought fresh items.
- Take photos from the wooden pier, where the market is captured against the backdrop of colorful houses.
- Ask about handwoven belts, they sell out very quickly and rarely remain until the afternoon.
- When bargaining, it is worth speaking Spanish or at least showing a polite attitude, locals appreciate it with a discount.
