Gazing across the seemingly endless expanse of white sand, who could imagine that Costa Calma Beach, the “Calm Coast,” wasn’t always a tranquil paradise? Costa Calma Beach stretches along the Jandia Peninsula in Fuerteventura, a popular tourist destination in the Canary Islands. Developed in the 1970s, this beach resort town owes its serene name to the fact that the usual western winds often leave this particular stretch of coastline protected and calm. The beach itself boasts over two kilometers of white sand, offering plenty of space for visitors to relax and soak up the sun. Despite its name, Costa Calma isn’t always calm. The southern part of the beach becomes a haven for surfers and windsurfers when the winds pick up. This area, known as Sotavento Beach, has even hosted several windsurfing championships, including the PWA World Cup. Imagine the colorful sails dancing across the turquoise waters, propelled by the very winds that usually grant Costa Calma its tranquility. Now, picture yourself strolling along the northern part of Costa Calma Beach. You’ll discover two smaller, sheltered beaches perfect for families. While the main beach offers amenities like hammock and umbrella rentals, lifeguards, and water sports activities, these smaller coves provide a quieter escape. Although Costa Calma Beach offers a semi-urban beach experience with a variety of services, it maintains a relatively low occupancy rate, allowing visitors to enjoy a sense of spaciousness. As you relax on the soft sand, remember that you are experiencing a relatively recent development in Fuerteventura’s history. From a quiet stretch of coastline, Costa Calma Beach has transformed into a vibrant tourist destination, offering a unique blend of relaxation and exhilarating water sports.
