Purpose-built and perfectly geared for pleasure and relaxation, Caleta de Fuste is one of Fuerteventura's newer holiday resorts - still relatively fresh on the tourist trail. Tucked along the island's east coast, this welcoming resort is built around a natural cove where the shoreline shelves gently into crystal-clear, calm waters. The safe beaches and soft golden sands make it a favourite for families and sunseekers alike.
Enjoy over 300 days of sunshine annually, with temperatures ranging from 19°C to 27°C, making it an ideal destination all year-round.
From the nearby Oasis Park Zoo to water sports like diving and jet skiing, there's something for everyone.
Just a 10-minute drive from Fuerteventura Airport, the resort is easily accessible, reducing travel time upon arrival.
Caleta de Fuste Beach is an ideal place of relaxation for couples and for families, with it's turquoise waters and white sandy beaches.
This is the main beach right in the heart of Caleta de Fuste. It's a wide, sandy bay with calm, shallow waters that are ideal for swimming - especially with kids. The shore slopes gently, so it's safe, and you'll find sun loungers, umbrellas, and a lovely promenade with cafés and restaurants just steps away.
A little further south, Playa la Guirra is quieter and more relaxed. It's man-made, but the sand is soft and the water is beautifully clear. It's a great place to unwind if you want a break from the busier spots, and it's close to some of the more upscale hotels and the Atlantico Shopping Centre.
If you're after something a bit more off the beaten path, Las Marismas is a peaceful, more natural beach area. It's a good option for those who like things a little more laid-back, with fewer people and more space to just enjoy the sea.
This is a small, traditional beach area where you'll often spot local fishing boats. It has a really authentic feel and is a lovely place to grab some fresh seafood nearby after a walk along the water.
For something a little different, Pozo Negro is just a short drive away. It's a black sand beach, set in a quiet fishing village. It's not your typical tourist beach, but it's peaceful, scenic and definitely worth a visit.
