Puerto del Rosario kicks off the 2025-2026 cruise season with the “Discover Puerto” initiative. This project, promoted by the City Council's Tourism Department and the Business Association, aims to boost commerce and tourism in Fuerteventura's capital.
With the arrival of the first cruise ships of the 2025-2026 season, the Puerto del Rosario Business Association celebrates the start of a new stage of commercial revitalization with the launch, for the second consecutive year, of the “Discover Puerto” initiative, financed by the Puerto del Rosario City Council through the Tourism area.
This project aims to enhance the experience of cruise ship passengers and boost spending in the city's open-air shopping districts. Among the planned initiatives is the tourist train, which will once again travel through the capital, making strategic stops at key historical, cultural, and commercial landmarks. In addition, tour guides will be on hand to greet visitors and provide information about local offerings, heritage sites, and available activities.
Meanwhile, Primero de Mayo street will once again be the setting for the Cruise Market, a space where local artisans and businesses can display their products, accompanied by musical entertainment to create a festive and welcoming atmosphere.
