One of the few reliable things on the island of Fuerteventura is actually the bus service. The most frequent links are from the capital Puerto del Rosario to Corralejo in the north (route number 6), and down to the airport and the resort of Caleta de Fuste /also known as El Castillo/ further south (route number 3). The bus drivers will not accept large denomination notes so make sure that you have some smaller coins.
IMPORTANT – You MUST press the bell before your stop. Even if you are standing in front of the door, the driver will not stop unless he has heard the bell!
