Fuerteventura's Canary Islands setting brings a mild subtropical climate with warm, sunny weather for most of the year, and summer from June to September is the hottest and busiest season. Canarian food is built around fresh seafood, goat cheese and papas arrugadas with mojo sauce. The Canaries are linked to mainland Spain by frequent flights, while ferries and short flights connect the islands to each other. Spanish is the everyday language, and a few words help in shops and restaurants. Corralejo and Costa Calma are among the island's main towns, and the museum sits within reach of both for a day trip.
