About this experience

Artisan Markets in El Cotillo is a weekly open-air market held in the town square of El Cotillo, a fishing village on Fuerteventura's northwest coast. The market showcases local crafts, handmade jewellery, ceramics, and natural products from Canarian artisans. It operates on specific days of the week, typically from morning until early afternoon.

What to expect

  • Browse stalls from 10:00 to 14:00 on Wednesdays and Saturdays, with around 20 local vendors present.
  • Find handmade leather goods, woven palm baskets, and aloe vera skincare products made on the island.
  • Watch live demonstrations of pottery and knife-making by the artisans themselves.
  • Sample local goat cheese and mojo sauces from nearby farms, with free tasting portions offered.
  • Suitable for families and independent travellers, with easy access from the main car park and a flat, shaded layout.
  • Each purchase includes a direct conversation with the maker, and cash is preferred as most stalls do not accept cards.
