HotThe weather in Betancuria like the rest of Fuerteventura is influenced by its close proximity to the coast of Africa which ensures plenty of year round sunshine. The strong trade winds that blow in from the northeast generally keep the temperature down to an enjoyable level and during the summer months bring a welcome relief from the heat.
Betancuria is the old capital of the island which in the past was governed from there. Hidden in a valley to prevent pirate attacks from the African continent this picturesque colonial town offers a glimpse into Fuerteventura’s past.
