The Mercadão Municipal is open daily from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., but the best time to go is in the morning. This way you can enjoy all the fresh produce and variety of products on offer without crowds or queues. You’ll also get a chance to see locals doing their shopping before starting their day. It’s always a good time to visit the Mercado but depending on the season will depend on all the yummy fruit that’s available. Summertime is when the best selection of fruit and vegetables will be found at the Mercadão Municipal.
