From Santa Cruz Cruise Port
Mercado de Nuestra Señora de África
Santa Cruz’s market hall — produce, colour and everyday Canarian life.
Distance
Within the walkable city centre
Travel time
Included in a Santa Cruz stroll
Time needed
30–60 minutes
The market is the natural food and local-life stop on an independent Santa Cruz day — more revealing than another waterfront photograph alone.
Go for atmosphere and light snacks rather than a long sit-down meal close to all-aboard.
Pair with parks and shopping streets on the Walk It Yourself loop.
