Weather

continent, Fuerteventura is consistently warm and
sunny all year round with average high
temperatures of 25C throughout August and
September. Not dipping beneath 18C from January
to March, it is estimated that the Canary Island
receives 3,000 hours of sunshine a year, making
it an attractive proposition no matter the
season.Rainfall is extremely limited on this
desert-like island too, with most (26mm) falling
in December. Given Fuerteventura isnt a steep
mountainous island, raindrops are rarely felt in
the popular east coast resorts around Las Rocas
and Castillo Caleta de Fuste.
