This small market is located in a palm grove in the northern part of Kamala. It’s always shady and cool here. The market operates only on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 14:00 to 21:00.
Kamala Market is an ideal place to buy fresh fruits and vegetables, souvenirs, and have an inexpensive dinner.
As at most markets, you’ll find a variety of goods — clothing, food, and souvenirs. Prices are reasonable, but bargaining is welcome — you can get a nice discount.
Sometimes you’ll come across street musicians who make the atmosphere even more authentic.
