What it's like to live in Caleta de Fuste
Caleta de Fuste lies on the northern slope of Fuerteventura, the one facing the trade winds head-on. It's the windward side: the Atlantic's moist air hits the relief and drops much of its humidity there, so there's more cloud cover at mid-altitude, more rain spread through the year, and a noticeably greener landscape than the south of the island. With an average of 8,0 hours of sunshine a day, it's worth expecting overcast days especially in winter, and higher ambient humidity than people expect when they arrive looking only for beach weather.
Caleta de Fuste belongs to the municipality of Antigua, which has 14.164 residents across its whole area. It's a mid-sized municipality, big enough to have everyday services sorted (health centre, school, local shops) without the density or traffic of the larger urban areas.
In the immediate surroundings of Caleta de Fuste is Las Corcobadas, Montaña Blanca de Abajo, Punta de la Hondura and Morro de la Cancela, a useful landmark for getting your bearings before visiting the area.
Within walking distance of the area's centre, 3 health centres, a pharmacy, 8 supermarkets and 47 restaurants have been found, according to open OpenStreetMap data. This is an indicative and always conservative count: it reflects what's been mapped, which in smaller towns tends to fall short of what's actually there.
Caleta de Fuste compared with its surroundings
Being right by the sea, salt-spray is high: it's worth having treated woodwork and fittings, and expecting more façade upkeep than further inland.
With 8 hours of sunshine a day, this is an area made for living outdoors for much of the year.
- For hours of sunshine it ranks 6 out of 15 among the areas of Antigua.
- It sits 107 m below the average altitude for Antigua, which shows in the temperature.

How to read these figures
Every figure on this page describes what living here is like all year round, not just on holiday. Here is what each one means:
- Sunshine hours
- Average daily sunshine. More sun means more natural light indoors, lower heating bills and better output if you fit solar panels.
- Wind
- The prevailing strength in the area. Light means comfortable terraces and outdoor living all year; strong is excellent for wind sports, but you feel it day to day.
- Salt air
- The influence of the sea. High means more upkeep for façades, windows, railings and vehicles. Low preserves the property better over time.
- Altitude
- The higher you go, the cooler the nights, the drier the air and the less salt. At coastal level temperatures are steadier and milder.
- Fibre optic
- Coverage recorded in the area. Decisive if you work remotely; worth confirming street by street before you sign.
- Reference price
- The official appraised value per m² applied to a reference-sized property. It is a statistical figure for the area so you can compare, NOT the price of any specific property.
