The markets on the Costa del Sol are wonderful places to find bargains to suit everyone. Particularly good buys are Spanish pottery and leather goods, although almost everything is available. For something different, why not try one of the flea markets where there are many stalls selling genuine old Spanish items which make a great change from the usual souvenirs. The Saturday flea market in Fuengirola is the biggest and well worth a visit.
