Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura, an hourglass island, where hidden among its deserts, its white dunes stand out as the main attraction for the visitor. Serving as a nexus and refreshment from the incessant sunny days, the wind softens the intense light in a desert landscape, an exile for many, in the past due to its orography and apparent solitude, and home to many others due to its warm welcome.
Not without forgetting that it proudly holds the title of Biosphere Reserve, a history full of pirates, and a pleasant tranquillity today for those who seek to get lost among its sandy deserts, or in contrast, a great social life with its commercial surfaces and leisure in its most touristic enclaves.
Fuerteventura, brimming with tranquillity, is the home of good gastronomy with award-winning cheeses, always linked to the sea and its winds.
Caleta de Fuste
Caleta de Fuste is one of the main tourist areas in Fuerteventura. Two golf courses, spa centres, a wide range of stores and numerous leisure areas.
This tourist area was built around a natural cove protected from the waves and the wind, turning into a beach. Fine golden sand and pristine water, protected from the waves like not many others on the island, which makes it the ideal place for a family holiday. In addition, Caleta de Fuste has many calm and peaceful coves.
This area is also known as El Castillo (the Castle). The tallest building is Torre Fortaleza, a fortress from the 18th Century, located at the entrance of the bay, a beautiful sample of military architecture built to defend the island.
Caleta de Fuste has a small port. Next to the beach, there is a wide range of water activities, canoeing, water bikes, diving, boat and submarine rides, a diving school, a windsurf school, etc.

But undoubtedly the greatest charm of Corralejo are its beaches. Alzada, Bajo Negro, Corralejo … kilometers of fine sandy beaches where you can relax or practice water sports.
