Fuerteventura's Caleta de Fuste is located close to the airport and is a fairly new town and holiday destination. Caleta de Fuste boasts many facilities to keep you and the kids occupied and most of these are featured within these pages.
Caleta has been around for about 10-15 years, before that it was a coastal, er...coast. Not much happening at all, but now it is a thriving community with child-safe beaches, and their various water and sand based activities, as well as bars, restaurants, tours, cruises, coastal walks plus much much more. They say it never rains in Fuerteventura, they also say its 365 days of sunshine; I don't quite hold with that nonsense, I have been here for two years and I can remember it raining on one occasion, a Thursday I think.
Caleta de Fuste has much to offer you as a tourist, but also as a potential holiday home-owner, property here is very cheap, as is the cost of living. In all Fuerteventura, and in particular Caleta de Fuste, should be a destination for everyone at some point, make it yours this year.
Caleta de Fuste can be accessed by taxi from the airport (a ten minute ride of about €10), or there are many tour operators with coaches standing by to whisk you to your hotel or holiday apartment.
We look forward to seeing you soon; I'll be the tanned potatoey looking fella.
