I grew up in my family's carpet shop here in Alanya. Before I could even name a price, I already knew that the best shopping in this city never happens inside a mall it happens at the street markets. After 16 years in Alanya tourism, running my own agency and now leading CertiGo's price analysis, I still go to the markets myself. This guide is everything I know about when, where, and what to look for at every street market in Alanya.
Street Market Days in Alanya Full Weekly Guide
Alanya has a street market running almost every single day of the week just in a different neighbourhood each time. Below is the complete list I've personally compiled, with exact locations and landmark references so you can actually find them.
| Day | Market | Location & Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | Oba Pazarı | Oba Mah. Hacıkadiroğlu Cad. Starts in front of Avena Hotel. |
| Tuesday | Alanya Sebze Pazarı Mahmutlar Pazarı |
Kızlarpınarı Mah. Ucuz Halk Pazarı Near Mahmutlar Mah. Barış Cad. Set up in the open area directly in front of Akdeniz Park AVM, behind Mahmutlar Municipality. |
| Wednesday | Konaklı Pazarı Avsallar Pazarı Kestel Pazarı |
Konaklı Mah. Vatan Cad. Next to Konaklı Medical Centre. Avsallar Mah. Hacıkadiroğlu Cad. Kestel Mah. Fakülte Cad. Next to Total Petrol, on the Alanya–Gazipaşa road. |
| Thursday | Tosmur Pazarı | Tosmur Mah. 9. Sok. Behind Cumhuriyet Police Station Starts in front of Sun Prime C Lounge Hotel. |
| Friday | Cuma Sebze Pazarı ⭐ Alanya's Biggest Market Turizm Pazarı |
Şekerhane Mah. Belediye Düğün Salonu Yanı Not just fruit and vegetables: clothing, shoes, kitchenware, and souvenirs all in one place. The one I always point people to first. Okurcalar Mah. Alara Çayı Near |
| Saturday | Cikcilli Pazarı Mahmutlar Pazarı |
Cikcilli Mah. Belediye Cad. Opposite Köylü Market. Mahmutlar Mah. 125. Sok. Next to Old Municipality Building Same open area in front of Akdeniz Park AVM. |
| Sunday | Türkler Pazarı Hacet Pazarı |
Türkler Mah. Zelenegors Cad. Next to Old Municipality Building. Hacet Mah. Saraçlar Sok. Next to Hacet Mosque Near the Population Registry Office. Mostly fresh produce, very local in character. Not a tourist market, but an honest one. |
Orçun's note: Use this guide alongside your hotel's location. Every part of Alanya has a market day within walking distance or a short taxi ride. Go early by midday the best produce is gone.
Designer Shops with Free Hotel Transfer
Street markets are where you buy tomatoes at the right price. But Alanya also has designer and leather shops that are genuinely worth visiting and I've vetted the pricing at every one of them. If you want a more curated shopping experience, CertiGo offers free hotel pickup so you don't have to figure out the transport yourself.

Gold Shops & Gold Shopping Tour
Buying gold in Turkey is one of the best value decisions you can make as a visitor if you know what you're doing. I've spent years understanding the difference between 18k and 22k, what workmanship fees are reasonable, and which shops price fairly. This tour lets you shop the way locals do.

Alanya Markets: Frequently Asked Questions
Friday's Cuma Sebze Pazarı in Şekerhane is by far the largest. It's right in the city centre, next to the main dolmuş stop, and sells everything from fresh produce to clothing, footwear, kitchenware and souvenirs. I always send first-time visitors there.
Yes two, in fact. Tuesday and Saturday both have a Mahmutlar Pazarı, both in the open area in front of Akdeniz Park AVM. The Tuesday one is the bigger of the two.
Most are a healthy mix. The Friday market and the Okurcalar Turizm Pazarı are particularly tourist-friendly. The Hacet Sunday market is very local mostly fruit and vegetables at honest prices, not much for souvenir hunters. All of them are worth experiencing for the atmosphere alone.
For produce, the price is typically fixed and already fair these are local sellers, not tourist traps. For clothing, textiles, and souvenirs, a polite negotiation is entirely normal. My rule: if you're buying more than one item, always ask for a bundle price.
Most markets open around 08:00 and close by 18:00–20:00 depending on the season. Go in the morning by noon the freshest produce is taken and some stalls begin packing up.
Yes. CertiGo offers designer-inspired shopping tours and gold shopping experiences, both with free hotel transfer included. You don't need to figure out taxis or directions we handle the logistics so you can focus on the shopping.
