Weekly Market Cala d'Or Mallorca

The weekly market in Cala d’Or is a lively Sunday market in the heart of this popular seaside resort on Mallorca’s southeast coast, combining a relaxed holiday vibe with local products, beach‑oriented shopping and a friendly community feel. It is ideal if you want to add some authentic Mallorcan flavour to a beach day, without leaving the resort.

​

What to expect at Cala d’Or weekly market

The Cala d’Or weekly market takes place in the town centre, with stalls set up around the central streets and squares near the main shopping area, so you are right in the middle of resort life while you browse. The setting is more modern and coastal than in inland villages, with whitewashed buildings, palm trees and holidaymakers moving between the market, cafés and boutiques.

​At the market you will find fresh fruit and vegetables from local farmers, traditional Mallorcan products such as cheeses, sobrasada, olives and pastries, as well as artisan ceramics, jewellery, textiles and crafts. There is also a strong beach and resort focus: stalls selling clothing, beachwear, accessories, bags and souvenirs make it easy to pick up practical items for your stay or small gifts to take home.

​The atmosphere is relaxed and family‑friendly, with a clear mix of locals, seasonal residents and international visitors. Many stallholders are used to dealing with tourists, so English is widely understood, and you can comfortably combine shopping with coffee or breakfast in the surrounding bars and cafés.

​

Market day and opening hours

Weekly market Cala d’Or is held on Sundays, making it one of the key Sunday markets on Mallorca’s southeast coast. This timing fits perfectly with typical holiday rhythms, as many visitors use Sunday for a slower day in the resort or as a change from pure beach time.

​The core opening hours of the Cala d’Or weekly market are in the morning, from around 08:00 until approximately 13:30. Activity is strongest in the later morning, but if you want the fullest selection and more space to move around, arriving closer to the start of the market is a good idea, especially in high season.

​In addition to the daytime Sunday market, Cala d’Or also hosts an evening tourist market on Sundays from May to the end of October on Plaça de Toni Costa, running roughly from 18:00 to 23:00 and focusing heavily on handmade products, jewellery and souvenirs. This seasonal night market adds another option if you prefer to explore markets in cooler evening temperatures.

Location: where the market is in Cala d’Or

The weekly market is centrally located in Cala d’Or, within easy walking distance of many hotels, apartments and beaches in the resort. Stalls are set up in the town centre streets and around key squares close to the main pedestrian shopping zone, so you can seamlessly combine market browsing with visiting shops, bars and restaurants.

​Cala d’Or itself is known for its pretty sandy coves, pine‑lined coastline and low‑rise, whitewashed architecture inspired by Ibizan style. Having the weekly market in the middle of this environment gives your visit a distinctly Mediterranean feel, with the option to head to one of the nearby coves such as Cala Gran or Cala Esmeralda soon after you finish shopping.

​

How to get to Cala d’Or weekly market

If you are staying in Cala d’Or or in one of its nearby districts, you can usually reach the weekly market on foot within a few minutes, depending on your accommodation. This makes it very convenient: you do not have to worry about parking and can simply walk into town centre on Sunday morning.

​Visitors coming from other parts of the island typically drive towards Santanyí and then follow the signs to Cala d’Or on the southeast coast. Once in the resort, it is best to follow local signage and look for parking slightly outside the most central streets, as nearby parking spaces can be limited and fill quickly on busy days.

​Public transport options connect Cala d’Or with other southeastern towns such as Santanyí, Felanitx and Porto Cristo, from where you can transfer to other island routes. Check current bus timetables in advance; from the bus stop, it is just a short walk into the town centre where the stalls are located.

Why visit Cala d’Or market in Mallorca

Weekly market Cala d’Or is one of the easiest markets to visit if you are based in the southeast and want a convenient, low‑stress market experience without travelling inland. It offers a good mix of local produce, regional specialities and resort‑friendly goods, making it practical both for everyday holiday needs and for picking up authentic Mallorcan products.

​The coastal resort setting means you can combine your market visit with a beach day or a relaxed stroll along the marina area, where boats and yachts give Cala d’Or its distinctive nautical flair. For families, the walkable layout and plenty of cafés, ice‑cream shops and restaurants near the market make it easy to keep children entertained while adults browse.

​Compared with big inland markets like Sineu or Inca, Cala d’Or’s weekly market is more compact and tourist‑oriented, which some visitors actually prefer because it feels manageable and directly integrated into their resort stay. At the same time, the presence of local farmers and artisans ensures that there are still genuinely Mallorcan flavours and products on offer.

Tips for visiting Cala d’Or weekly market

For the best experience, plan to arrive close to the opening time between 08:00 and 10:00, especially in the high summer months. Early visits give you cooler temperatures, more space and the freshest selection at food stalls, before the resort wakes up fully and the streets get busier.

​Bring cash, as many smaller stalls – especially those selling fresh produce and artisan goods – may not accept card payments. A reusable bag or lightweight backpack is very useful for carrying fruit, snacks, wine, ceramics or beach accessories back to your accommodation.

​If you want to photograph the market, the mix of colourful stalls, white buildings and blue sky typically creates very bright light, so consider visiting earlier in the day or looking for shaded angles along the narrower streets. After your market visit, you can either explore more of the centre, walk to a nearby cove for a swim or return in the evening (in season) for the separate night market on Plaça de Toni Costa.
