Looking for a Souvenir .....

Saturday is market day in Caleta with stalls selling embroidered table linen, wooden carvings, clothes and more. The market is in a much better position than it used to be as they now close off a stretch of the main street in the town, which makes strolling round (especially with a pushchair) much more pleasant. Do try your hand at haggling over the price - it's all part of the fun! Corralejo, in the north of the island, has two market days each week - perhaps you could combine this with a visit to see the sand dunes.

There is a wide variety of shopping available in Caleta - everything from lovely leather goods, perfumes, jewellery and porcelain to the usual tourist souvenirs . Of course, there are also plenty of supermarkets around for those essential suppplies.
After a day in the sunshine, whether it was at one of the beaches or at the shops, you might like to take the mini train back to the villa for your evening meal. You can’t miss it – it has a huge dolphin on the roof and at 1 Euro it is very good value. When the mini train has stopped for the day there are plenty of taxis available which will cost around 2 or 3 Euros to take you home. |
