Caleta de Fuste is 6km south of the airport and is on the East side of Fuerteventura. The beach here is its biggest selling point; especially from the point of view of a family holiday. Even on a weekend day its uncrowded; and has full facilities and ameneties.
The thing thats really sets this beach apart from others I've been to sround thr Canaries; and we've visited 4 islands here now. Is that a fishing ban around the harbour and bay have resulted in there being more fish than you can shake a fish net at ! As my 5 year old daughter eloquently put it ' theres millions and millions of big fish, little fish and medium sized fish' . And if your kids miss seeing the fish in the sea while snorkelling then they can feed the fish off the harbour; fish food is available at the floating shop at a Euro a bag. Just as an additional tip - we found that as soon as the kids where given nets that was the last we saw of the fish. Try it without ! Or take some bread with you.

As well as snorkelling and feeding the fish there's also a park on the beach. Plus the sand is of a quality that sand castle building is an option.
If your looking at the boat trips then I highly recommend 'FIND OUT TOUR NAME and sea lion exprience' . The boat trip itself is much better than some other glass bottom boat trips thanks to the fact that you have a school of fish that are fed by the skipper that circle the boat for the whole trip. So even if you miss the parrot fish, sting rays and other local sea life your children will be more than amused. The trip also includes a helpful educational introduction into what to look out for. And some time with the sea lion. Regarding the sea lion; i hate to see animald like this in captivity but on the plus side it is third generation in captivity and had access to a fair part of the harbour.
