Can anyone please advise the logic of moving the guagua stop in downtown Cotillo.
There is now actually a notice at the old one saying it is out of service,but the bus goes straight through it !

The Cotillo Beach Hotel has new owners. Previously privately owned, it has now been purchased by Coral Hotels in what I think is their first hotel outside Tenerife.

El Goloso, the French bakery in El Cotillo, closed this morning until the 16th June for reformations.

The annual music festival, Fuerteventura En Musica, is being held on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 July 2019 at La Concha beach, El Cotillo:

I am looking to rent a property in the north of the island.

I have a preference for Lajares but anything in the north would be accepted (except Corralejo, I need something a bit quieter)

If you have a property or know of someone that does, please send me a message.

Right now its an open search, and when the right one comes along

This morning the traditional Calada was celebrated, with dozens of neighbors involved and at least a ton of fish to invite the attendees in the popular asadero next Thursday.

It is open Monday to Saturday from 8:30am to 9pm and on Sunday from 9am to 3pm.

It has a fresh meat counter, fresh fruit and vegetables as well as a bakery
