Mercat De Santa Catalina
About
Mercat de Santa Catalina is Palma’s historic municipal market, a vibrant hub where the city’s culinary heritage comes alive. Open from Monday to Saturday, the market offers two distinct schedules: commercial stalls run from 7 AM to 3 PM, while food stalls and a small bar keep the venue lively until 5 PM. Visitors can explore an eclectic mix of vendors—from fresh seafood and locally‑grown produce to artisanal cheeses, cured meats, pastries and florists stocked with Catalan blooms. The market is famous for speciality stalls such as La Vermutortillería and Floristería Miquel Capellà, and it provides a friendly, family‑oriented atmosphere that appeals to both locals and tourists alike. Its central location on Plaça de la Navegació puts it just a short walk from Palma’s city center, making it a convenient stop for a leisurely morning or afternoon stroll.
