Shoppers in Axarquia and Costa Tropical areas can now have convenient Sunday access at several supermarkets and shopping centres for this summer. Extensions continue until the end of September in many locations. Planning shopping trips on days off becomes easier with these schedules.
Adjustments cover popular centres and chains along the coast from Rincon de la Victoria to Motril. People benefit from longer hours at major outlets while smaller towns rely on nearby options.
Rincon de la Victoria Shopping Centre
Rincon de la Victoria Shopping Centre welcomes Sunday visitors with its large Carrefour and other stores until September ends.
People in the area can enjoy extended hours at this convenient spot near the motorway. Free parking supports easy access for families and tourists alike during peak season.
El Ingenio Centre near Velez-Malaga
El Ingenio Shopping Centre in the Velez-Malaga area opens on Sundays until the end of September. Eroski supermarket inside provides full shopping options during these extra days. They are now open as from 9am to 10pm every day.
Shoppers from Torrox and nearby towns often use this facility for bigger purchases. Over 100 stores and cinema facilities add leisure value on Sundays.
Supermarkets Across Nerja, Torrox and Frigiliana
Nerja offers Mercadona, Lidl, Aldi and Carrefour branches with varying Sunday availability in summer. Select Mercadona stores may announce some Sunday opening once July begins, while all Aldi, Carrefour Express and Lidl stores plan to open until 10pm on Sundays.
The same goes for Torrox, Almuñecar and Salobreña, with Sunday opening in Mercadona defined by each specific store.
Almuñecar Costa Tropical Sunday Choices
Motril’s Alcampo is now open all day on Sundays until after the summer holidays, as are all Lidl and Aldi stores. Most Dia stores along the coast stay open until 3pm, while inland branches show more limited hours.
Mercadona stores generally remain closed on Sundays and bank holidays through the summer, with some local exceptions announced closer to the time. Families across these areas now plan weekend errands with greater flexibility thanks to the updated times at key centres and discount chains.
Shoppers should confirm exact hours directly with stores, as permitted trading days follow regional rules for 2026.
