Shopping in Tenerife

Almost any town and village in Tenerife has a market where you can buy fresh fruit and vegetables. But there are actually two types of markets in El Medano: the farmer's market and the weekend market with souvenirs, crafts and other types of random things to buy.

If you want to buy local fruits and vegetables in Tenerife, it is best to head to one of the farmer's markets (mercado del agricultor), where you will find locally grown produce, with much more taste than what you can find in the supermarkets.
