Isla de Fuerteventura Travel Forum

Hi there, my family and I have booked a villa in Caleta de Fuste, we fly out on the 14th December and are there for 2 weeks. We are taking 4 children with us aged from 5 - 14. Has anyone been here for Xmas ? What is it like? We have never been away at Xmas before. Does anyone recommend a good restaurant for Xmas Day? Many thanks

hi!
I've had more christmas's in Fuerteventura than I've had in England! I've never stayed in Caleta though so can't tell you about restaurants - We've always gone to a shop that sells roast chicken and taken one of those back to our accomodation. I like being there over christmas, the weather is warmer than home - though apart from xmas just gone the last few years before that the weather hasn't been fantastic. If you do get an off day weather wise hire a car and tour the island - there is more to see than you think, your kid's would love the sand dunes outside corralejo, my brother and I used to love rolling down them! Nothing really stops for Christmas - the majority of things are still open espcially in a big touristy town like Caleta.
If you have any further questions just drop me an email.
