Attractions
- Rural Park Betancuria:
Fuerteventura is a UN Biosphere Reserve, with the entire island classified as being protected. The Rural Park Betancuria in Antigua is further classified as a Special Protection Area for Birds (ZEPA), and is part of the Natura 2000 network. The park is a wonderful place to wander around if you fancy a break from the city!
- Golf:
The tranquil nature of Fuerteventura lends greatly to the calm atmosphere surrounding the island’s multiple golf courses. In Antigua, Fuerteventura Golf Club is home to a gorgeous, ocean-facing, 18 hole golf course designed by Juan Catarineu. Open all year round, this club offers lessons to suit every age group, after only six hours of which you can impress your friends by flying home with a diploma! Another well acclaimed club in the area is the Golf Club Salinas de Antigua.
- Caleta de Fuste Castle:
Built in 1743 by the acclaimed military engineer Claudio de Lisne, Caleta de Fuste Castle is an early example of the martellos built across the British Empire in the 19th century. This small, defensive fort was built to defend the coast from enemies of the Empire.
