The night markets are the best

If you like flea markets then I strongly recommend Ingo's and their counterparts Mackies on Saturday nights rather then the hassle that is Anjuna Market on a Wednesday.

Not only do you get away from the heat on the Saturdays, but the live music and variations of food available definitely makes the markets a must.

You also don't get a parade of people trying to make you buy drums, saris, whistles and clean you ears all at the same time!

I think the jewellery on display is amazing, as are many of the carvings. Try not to get caught up buying loads of trinkets or saris from the first buyer you come to. If you walk away from them as the price is too much, they will probably chase you and let you buy the item for the price you want to pay.

As much or as little as you want
