Amata organises two craft fairs focused on Christmas

In the month December Amata, the regional craft association, organizes two special Craft Fairs in the province of Alicante where you can buy (or order!) those special, hand crafted gifts for Christmas, that are so difficult to find anywhere else.

The first is a four-day event in the Port of Jávea from the 6th till the 9th of December, the weekend after, on 15 and 16 December, they move to the South of the province, setting up their stalls in the centre of San Fulgencio.

Amata specializes in original craft work: in a fair organized by Amata you won't find cheap import or factory made products: everything is hand made by the participants.

And not only that: the organizers also make sure that every stall offers something different, so that you can find original presents for all your loved ones: for children, youngsters, men, women and even for pets!

And, as all participants are real craft people and most of them bring their tools along, they can take special orders if you don't find what you are looking for.

The fair in Jávea is in the Port, right at the sea side (you can find the exact spot in Google maps: https://goo.gl/ maps/rx5uWDjHiYs or look for Feria de Artesanía Jávea), during the long weekend of Dec 69, both Dec 6 and 8 bank holidays. Opening times are from 11am till 9pm, which means that they don't close at lunchtime.

In San Fulgencio the fair is set up around the Plaza de la Constitución, the square in front of the Town Hall. As more people live in nearby estates, there will be a special bus service at regular intervals running from the Urbanización Marina to the fair both to encourage people to come to the fair and to minimize the parking problem!

Both Saturday Dec 15 and Sunday Dec 16 the fair opens at 11am and closes on Saturday about 9 pm, on Sunday a bit earlier. Here the stalls also stay open at lunchtim.
