Caleta de Fuste

Caleta de Fuste is a short drive south from the island’s main airport. Its central location is ideal for exploring the island but it’s facilities mean you don’t have to leave the town if you don’t want to.

Caleta has a large, family friendly, horseshoe-shape beach with calm waters. The beach leads into the harbour, from where various excursions can be taken – boat trips, submarine trips, diving excursions etc. Various other watersports are also available.

Many of Caleta’s shops and restaurants are located together in one area, just two minutes walk from our house. Restaurants are varied and choices include Spanish, English, Chinese and Italian.

For the shoppers, the choice is varied with specialities including leather, jewellery and pottery. There are also markets, banks, and cash points!

For golfers, a five minute drive will take you to Fuerteventura’s Main golf course, an 18-hole course which held the Spanish Open this year (see www.fuerteventuragolfclub.com or www.corralejogolf.com for details). The Golf course area also houses a cinema, ten-pin bowling alley and shopping centre.
