Fuerteventura in March
Around 19.5 °C by day, sea 18.6 °C. Too cold to swim. Quieter than the peak: 2 out of 5 against 4.
March on Fuerteventura is 19.5 °C by day and 18.6 °C in the sea. The year here is almost flat: March has the coldest water, and the warmest, in September, is 23.1 °C.
March is when the winterers leave and the island belongs for a few weeks to the people who live here. That suits a scouting trip: you can see what runs on its own and what opens for the season. What to look at is distance — the island stretches a hundred kilometres, and from Pájara the hospital is 39 minutes away against 3 from the capital, the airport 55 against 10. On a map they are neighbouring dots; in life they are different conditions.

The winter column is a 1-to-5 score: how many cafés, hotels and shops run in January compared with the best month of the year. Where a village has no government figure of its own, it is our estimate. Tourists never notice; anyone who moved does.
Rain days and humidity are annual here, not monthly: 18 rainy days a year, 60% humidity in winter. We have no monthly normals yet and will not invent a split.
