Visit Puerto del Rosario, Spain
Puerto del Rosario is the capital of Fuerteventura and is a working fishing town. It has not traditionally been a tourist town though cruise ships do dock here for visits to Fuerteventura as do the inter-island ferries. The town is however undergoing something of a facelift in the hope of attracting more tourists in the future.
The sea front area in particular has been developed and improved and the two town beaches have both been enlarged. The harbour is the oldest part of the town and has narrow streets lined with typical Canaries-style buildings.
Puerto del Rosario is perhaps the best town for shopping on Fuerteventura and is expanding all the time.
