Playa de Furste, Beach in Antigua, Spain
Playa de Furste is a beach on the eastern coast of Fuerteventura with fine white sand and shallow water for swimming. The shoreline stretches roughly 700 meters and offers easy access to the water throughout.
The beach sits near Castillo de San Buenaventura, a defensive tower from the 18th century that protected the coast from sea attacks. This fortification was part of the region's defense system against pirates and foreign invasions.
The beach hosts the annual Beach Party del Castillo festival in October, bringing together residents and visitors for music performances and entertainment on the sand.
The beach has showers, sunshades, restaurants, and bars available for a comfortable day by the water. The water stays cool year-round, so a wetsuit is useful, though many visitors still wade in without one.
The beach connects to a network of wooden boardwalks that lead into the sea and provide access to protected coves. These wooden structures let visitors observe small marine animals and fish in the calm waters.
