The Church of San Antonio de Padua is the principal Catholic church in Tarajalejo, a fishing village on the southeastern coast of Fuerteventura. It stands beside the main square, a short walk from the harbour and the black-sand beach. The building’s plain whitewashed exterior and small bell tower reflect the island’s traditional religious architecture.
What to expect
- Attend a Sunday Mass at 11:00, lasting roughly 45 minutes, with a local congregation and Spanish-language service.
- View the simple wooden altar and a small statue of Saint Anthony, the church’s patron saint, inside the single-nave interior.
- Step outside to the adjacent Plaza de Tarajalejo, where benches and palm trees offer shade and a view of the Atlantic.
- Combine the visit with a 10-minute walk to the beach or the fishing pier, both visible from the church steps.
- Suitable for a quiet 15-minute stop during a day trip, as the church has no guided tours or visitor centre.
