Picture time with view

Carmelite cloister transformed into a multifunctional space that includes a market, restaurant, concert space and a music school. It is located in the heart of the capital, a few steps from the Mercado del Pescado. It is a convent with a long history of transformations. Born to house the Carmelite order, it was confiscated, desacralized and, depending on the period, transformed into a court, prison, school. In the last quarter of the twentieth century, the ancient monastic cells on the ground floor began to accommodate various commercial proposals: shoe and clothing stores next to meat, fruit and vegetable shops, artisan products, local gastronomic specialties. And so it is until today. https://mercatdesclaustre.com But not only commerce. In fact, the courtyard, the central space framed by sandstone vaults, is home to cultural events and jazz, pop, folk, classical concerts. Nicknamed “Terraza“, in the summer it offers live music. https://esclaustre.com

Definitely worth a visit

Very nice view towards the harbor

Very good local products, with a less expensive supermarket in the basement and free toilets inside the courtyard accessible through the small hut.

If you have time, you can look at the "market" after the church. Unfortunately, it's not really that. Lots of shops for tourists with sausage, cheese, jam, gin or clothes, 1-2 with fruit and vegetables, a flower shop and 1-2 small cafes - that's about it. Okay for strolling around. But nothing special.

A wonderful nature reserve that is worth a visit!

An impressive and very pretty church that can also be visited from the inside.
