On the eastern coast of Fuerteventura, Caleta de Fuste welcomes sun-seekers and adventure enthusiasts with open arms. This purpose-built resort town, with its golden crescent beach and tempting waters, delivers a seamless escape from the daily grind.
Affectionately known as "El Castillo" by locals, Caleta de Fuste boasts a fascinating origin story. Its name, meaning "Cove of the Wooden Ship," harks back to the 18th century when a fishing boat mysteriously washed ashore, sparking curiosity and legends that continue to this day.
While the town's heart beats to the rhythm of holiday relaxation, there's no shortage of activities to quicken your pulse. Golf enthusiasts can tee off at the challenging 18-hole course, while water sports aficionados will find paradise in the warm Atlantic waves. For a taste of local flavour, stroll through the vibrant Saturday market, where the aroma of Canarian cheese and wine mingles with the sea breeze.
Caleta de Fuste caters to families seeking a fuss-free getaway and couples craving a romantic retreat. Its sheltered bay provides safe swimming for little ones, while adults can unwind in chic beachfront bars. As the sun dips below the horizon, the marina comes alive with restaurants serving fresh seafood and tapas.
Whether you're drawn by the allure of year-round sunshine, the thrill of windsurfing or simply the promise of lazy days on pristine sands, Caleta de Fuste delivers. This Canarian gem might be younger than its neighbouring resorts, but it's quickly carving out its place as a must-visit destination for those in the know.
