A Mecca for watersports, the young and energetic cannot resist the strong offshore wind to tone their windsurfing and kite surfing skills, in preparation for the World Championships held every July.
Traditional, modern and all year round sunshine, Fuerteventura ticks ALL the boxes for sure.
Our Resort – Castillo
Castillo, located in Caleta de Fuste on Fuerteventura’s east coast, is one of the island’s most established and accessible holiday resorts. Centred around the sheltered Playa del Castillo, it offers a wide, crescent-shaped beach with soft golden sand and calm, shallow waters – ideal for swimming, paddling, or simply relaxing in the sun.
The resort is named after the 18th-century Castillo de San Buenaventura, a historic stone fort that still stands by the shore. The area features a laid-back promenade lined with bars, restaurants, and cafés, while the nearby marina offers boat trips, water sports, and diving opportunities. Castillo combines modern convenience with a slower pace, making it a favourite for families, couples, and solo travellers. Well-connected and just 10 minutes from the airport, it’s also an excellent base for exploring Fuerteventura’s natural beauty – from volcanic landscapes and sand dunes to traditional inland villages and scenic coastal walks.
