Castillo Caleta de Fuste, Coastal resort in Fuerteventura, Spain.
Castillo Caleta de Fuste is a seaside resort on the eastern coast of Fuerteventura with golden sand and protected waters. The location features water sports facilities, golf courses, shopping centers, and many accommodations within easy reach of the beach.
Military engineer Claudio de Lisne built the defensive castle in 1743 to protect the coast from pirates. The structure was part of a broader defense system created to safeguard the Canary Islands from repeated sea attacks.
Local restaurants serve traditional Canarian fish dishes and regional recipes that show how people on the island live connected to the ocean and fishing traditions.
The resort is easy to explore on foot with direct access to various leisure facilities and accommodations. The best conditions for water sports occur during the warmer months when the sea is calmer.
The castle keeps its original circular tower design and serves as both a navigation landmark and historical marker. This round tower helps sailors locate the coast and is a popular photography spot for visitors.
