The history of Anjuna Flea Market is rooted in Goa’s hippie movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Back then, foreign travelers would set up stalls to sell handmade jewelry, clothes, and musical instruments to extend their stay. Over the decades, this casual trading turned into a full-fledged weekly market, attracting locals and tourists alike. The hippie spirit still lingers in its atmosphere, with live music, vibrant stalls, and a bohemian vibe. While modern products have been added, the essence of freedom, creativity, and cultural exchange continues to define the market. Visiting Anjuna Flea Market feels like stepping into Goa’s free-spirited past, where shopping is combined with culture, art, and history.
