Souvenirs and handcraft Spain Balearic Islands

 Shopping

Majorca produces wrought iron objects, glass art, embroidered items and espadrilles. The town of Manacor specialises in cultured pearls, furniture and objects made from olive trees; Felanitx makes the island's most beautiful ceramics; Inca specialises in leather while the town of Es Mercadal in Menorca makes albarques (typical Balearic shoes). Shops are open from Monday to Saturday, from 10:00am until 1:30pm and from 5:00pm to 8:30pm. During summer, some shops in the centre of Ibiza can stay open until 2:00 am. Shopping centres are open continuously from 10:00 am until 9:00pm or even 10:00 pm. Ibiza is famous for its hippy markets, in particular the Punta Arabi in Es Canar - one of the biggest in Europe -which is open every Wednesday from April until October, from 10:00am until 7:00pm. Smaller and more authentic, the Las Dialas hippy market in San Carlos is open all year round on Saturdays from 10:00am until sunset, with late opening on Mondays from 7:00pm until 1:00am from June to October.
