Castillo Caleta de Fuste, Coastal resort in Fuerteventura, Spain.

The beaches of Caleta de Fuste extend along the eastern coast with golden sand and protected waters suitable for swimming and water activities.

Military engineer Claudio de Lisne constructed the defensive castle in 1743 to guard against pirates who frequently attacked the Canary Islands coastline.

Restaurants throughout the resort present traditional Canarian fish dishes and local specialties, representing the maritime heritage of Fuerteventura island.

The resort provides direct access to water sports facilities, golf courses, shopping centers, and numerous accommodation options within walking distance from the beach.

The castle structure maintains its original circular martello tower design, functioning as both a historical monument and a visual reference point for boats.

Visit Fuerteventura: natural parks, wild beaches and historical sites

Fuerteventura, the second largest island in the Canary Islands, is characterized by its diverse landscapes and notable geological features. The island houses spectacular formations such as the white dunes of Corralejo Natural Park, extending over more than 10 kilometers, the 70-million-year-old Ajuy caves, and accessible volcanoes like Calderon Hondo with its 70-meter-deep crater. The coastline offers expansive beaches like the one in Cofete, 12 kilometers long and backed by the Jandía mountains, as well as Lobos Island, a volcanic nature reserve with black sand beaches. Beyond its natural assets, Fuerteventura offers cultural experiences such as the Grain Museum, which traces the island's agricultural history, and activities suitable for all ages with Oasis Park with 3,000 animals or Aqua Water Park in Corralejo. The island's climate allows visits year-round, with mild temperatures and ample sunshine promoting exploration of its natural parks, historical sites, and preserved coastline.
