Santa Ponça Market on Mallorca’s Southwest Coast
Set in the popular resort town of Santa Ponça, this vibrant weekly market every Saturday morning combines a classic Mallorcan market atmosphere with the lively energy of the island’s southwest coast. It’s a great stop for both holidaymakers and locals looking for fresh produce, crafts, and seasonal shopping.
History & Setting
Santa Ponça has grown from a quiet coastal village into a bustling resort town, yet its weekly market maintains a traditional feel. Stalls line the Avinguda de la Platja, just a short stroll from the beach, creating a perfect blend of seaside leisure and local culture.
Market Experience
The Santa Ponça Market is one of the largest in the area, offering an extensive mix of fresh fruit and vegetables, cheeses, charcuterie, baked goods, flowers, clothing, shoes, jewellery, crafts, and souvenirs. The variety attracts both residents and tourists, and its open-air setting gives you the chance to enjoy a relaxed morning before or after some time on the beach.
Visitor Information
The market takes place every Saturday from 09:00 to 14:00 along Avinguda de la Platja. Parking is available in and around the town, but it can get busy in summer—arrive early if possible. Santa Ponça is easily reached by car or bus from Palma, making it a convenient day trip for those staying elsewhere on the island.
