By car: If you’re interested in taking day trips and exploring the island, hiring a car is your best bet. The roads are good in Fuerteventura, and the island is small enough to get across in a couple of hours. However, check out the documentation you’ll need before you travel and remember the Golden Rule of driving on the right!

By bus: Buses are clean, prompt, and reliable. There are 16 bus-routes, covering most of the island, making this a great way to soak up the scenery without having to worry about driving on the ‘wrong’ side of the road and where you’re going to park!

By bike: Perhaps the most tranquil way of seeing the sights, cycling is very popular in Caleta de Fuste. There are dedicated cycle-paths and trails and bike-hire companies are in plentiful supply. 

For jazz fans: If you’re a jazz fan, take your Caleta de Fuste holidays in July, when venues across the Canary Islands are serenaded with the sounds of some of the genre’s most-respected musicians.
