Another large development that reaches the coast in Caleta de Fuste

[Captain Sensible]

I've been trying to find a clearer map of the proposed development for the last few days, as those I've seen in the press and online aren't clear.

I originally read about this proposed development last year, but it has now gone out for public consultation.

As Stephen mentions the map is not very clear.


It mentions developments on the Fuerteventura Golf complex but doesn't show anything.  Last time I was in the Anjoca sales office the Director indicated to me that the land they own behind the sales office will be developed as a hotel with bungalows to the mount end of the plot of the development which will involve the demolition of the building next to the roundabout where a new road will go north which is shown on the plans above.


The land directly ahead as you go on to Fuerteventura golf skirted by the 4th, 5th and 12th holes that has 2 pilot villas on it is owned by some Chinese and the director was in discussions with them about its development.


Watch this space.

John, from the original post it would seem that the Anjoca development won't be a 'hotel' after all. That is my interpretation.

I cannot "read" the plan image at all!  Any chance of something better? Where exactly is the part of the development going down to the coast  -I may be able to get my head around if then!!! Is it the wasteland after the Beach Cafe?

That's how I read it too.

Ok I saw that but wondered which course it was going to be.  If it is the land behind the Anjoca sales office then it isn't highlighted on that plan and Anjoca have changed their mind since early Match when I was last was in the office.  As I said in my post Anjoca did indicate to me that there would be a hotel and bungalows so it may be the bungalow bit they are referring to.

I dislike it when we refer to empty spaces as wasteland.

I wouldn’t see anything wrong with calling it wasteland or scrubland, that’s what it is. Or, if you prefer - “undeveloped” land. There is plenty of it there & if they are going to develop Caleta I personally would rather see the undeveloped areas within the town land used first than have a spread out under-utilised urban sprawl.

I also can't read the original map.  Can anyone read what the different colours indicate?

[Perrypower1]

I prefer to see some large areas left natural within an urban area with all the benefits that brings with it

Other definitions Sam include:

an ugly often devastated or barely inhabitable place or area


something (such as a way of life) that is spiritually and emotionally arid and unsatisfying

Building on empty spaces does not in itself raise the land to the status of spiritually or emotionally satisfying.

It seems to me that we should first build and renovate all the part built structures in and around Caleta before we attack virgin land.  The buildings at the top of the mountain are truly 'waste land' at the moment.
