Caleta Famara

White houses and sandy streets

This little village in the Chinijo Nature Park is considered to be one of the prettiest on the island, with its unpaved streets, white houses and spectacular views over the Chinijo archipelago and the Risco de Famara. Its vertical walls rise over one side of the village and stretch out to the Playa de Famara, one of the most popular beaches on the island.

Great traditional food

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Respect and look after the area's historic and cultural heritage, along with the different items of public furniture (information panels, railings, seats, lighting, etc.).
