Markets in l’Escala

In common with many Catalan towns l’Escala has a weekly market selling clothes and food, as well as a dedicated fruit and veg market in the old town and, during the tourist season, a summer market selling a variety of things.

Weekly market

Plaça de l’Univers and Passeig del Mar

The main weekly market takes place down on the seafront on Sunday mornings. You’ll find the stalls spread over the area near the statue of the little prince at the end of Riells beach. The market is open from around 8 am until 2 pm.

Fruit and veg market

Plaça Victor Català

There is also a fruit and veg market in town on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. It’s located in Plaça Victor Català and opening hours are similar to the weekly market.

Summer market

La Riba

You’ll find a number of stalls in the old town on Wednesday evenings from the end of July and throughout August. The stalls are behind one of the old town beaches and between 7 pm and midnight you’ll find all manner of things including jewellery, clothes, and locally grown food.
