The village of Cofete and the Winter villa in Fuerteventura

General presentation Cofete is an agricultural hamlet irrelevant – almost a slum – on the northwest coast of the peninsula of Jandía in the southwest of the island of Fuerteventura. However Cofete enjoys an exceptional location at the foot of the highest mountain of Fuerteventura, the Pico de la Zarza, and near one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Playa de Cofete. Cofete and its beach are located inside the Natural Park of Jandía and have, therefore, been preserved for tourism development. As the entire park, Cofete is part of the municipality of Pájara. Another attraction of Cofete is an enigmatic villa situated above the village, the villa Winter, to which are attached extravagant German submarines legends and national socialists networks, although this villa was built after World War World. Cofete is located in the basin of the crater Jandía whose most collapsed into the Atlantic Ocean; only remaining southern part of the caldera. This southern part of the caldera forms the Arco de Cofete the cliffs formed by the rim of the caldera, the summit is the Pico de la Zarza (“Peak of the Bramble”), with 807 m. To achieve Cofete from Morro del Jable you have to take a vehicle track – but difficult – that crosses the edge of the caldera with a collar located 350 m above sea level. Shortly after the pass is the viewpoint of the Degollada de Agua Oveja, 230 m above sea level, where the view on the wild beaches of Cofete and Barlovento is splendid. This stone track was built in 1946 by prisoners of agricultural penal colony Tefía near La Oliva (Colonia de Vagos y Maleantes, “vagrants and crooks colony”). From Morro del Jable it takes ¾ of an hour to travel the 19 km of track to Cofete, preferably all-terrain vehicle. Cofete is also the goal of many jeep safaris organized from Morro Jable. The track is often narrow and does not permit the passing of vehicles. On foot you can reach Cofete from Morro del Jable through the Barranco de Gran Valle; hiking is a little less than 8 km long. One can observe endemic plants of Jandía or the Canary Islands: the beginning of the hike we find euphorbia of Jandía (Euphorbia handiensis) then, at the approach of Cofete, many euphorbias populations of the Canaries (Euphorbia canariensis) , large succulent plant similar to cactus shaped candelabra. The hamlet of Cofete The hamlet of Cofete consists of a few houses and sheltered huts – somehow – westerly winds by a small hill, and grouped around a coffee shop to the friendly service where, it seems, we do not eat too bad. Many of these homes are inhabited occasionally, Scent of a Woman, by residents of Morro del Jable. To the east of the hamlet we see a large bronze statue of Gustav Winter accompanied by his inseparable black dog; Villa Winter is located 1.5 km south of the hamlet at the foot of the slopes of the mountain. The monument to Gustav Winter is built on top of a lime kiln (horno de cal) used to produce quicklime. One kilometer north of the hamlet is the beach of Cofete; just before the beach is Cemetery Cofete, a rather sinister marine cemetery filled with unmarked graves; it is said that many of these tombs are those of convicts have been employed in the construction of the track linking Morro Jable to Cofete. Next to the cemetery is the parking and camping – camping is temporarily closed. Beach Cofete (Playa de Cofete) The beach Cofete extends for about 8 km from Roque del Moro, a dyke or volcanic vent, located west and El Islote, a rocky islet connected to the coast by a sandbar east ; the average width of the beach at Cofete is 60 meters. It consists of a golden sand from the decomposition of rocks and disintegration of shells, not brought sand of the Sahara by the east winds, as is the case for the beaches of Sotavento. Because it is part of the Natural Park of Jandía, the area around the beach are inconstructibles and Beach Cofete remained a wild beach. The wind is usually quite strong, as ocean currents: swimming can be dangerous. The surf creates strong very popular rolls surfers. On the beach of Cofete, in a reserved area, is conducted reintroduction experience of the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) disappeared from the island of Fuerteventura from the early twentieth century. The eggs were collected from a colony of the southern Cape Verde islands, the environment and the beaches resemble Cofete, particularly by the quality of water, sand and especially sufficiently warm climate. The eggs of turtles are raised in artificial nests and before the young turtles cross the beach crawling to venture into the ocean, they are captured and transferred in aquariums from a breeding center located in the port of Morro del Jable. When they are strong enough to swim, a chip is implanted them in order to follow them and releasing them in the ocean on the beach of Cofete. It is hoped that as adults these turtles return to lay their eggs in Cofete and thus, the species happen again spontaneously on the island of Fuerteventura. Beach Barlovento (Playa de Barlovento) Beach Barlovento (“wind”) is extended towards the beach Cofete, beyond the island El Islote. Beach Barlovento has a length of about 6 km; This is a strip of greater or lesser sand – depending on the tide – between the ocean and the volcanic cliff; swimming can be dangerous, and the days of high tide, even the walk can be hazardous. Villa Winter (Casa de los Winter) The mysterious Villa Winter is located 1.5 km east of the hamlet of Cofete, almost at the foot of the Pico de la Zarza; The villa is located 130 m above sea level. This is a kind of mansion, with a ground floor and a mezzanine; the main entrance of the ground floor is facing the mountain and opens onto a patio where trying to survive a few banana trees; this patio reminiscent of the rich Canarian houses. Gargoyles carved in the shape of crocodiles discharge rainwater on the patio. Each side of the ground floor is extended by a balcony railing. The villa is covered by a roof in Roman tiles. The mezzanine is open on the north side – facing the sea – by a gallery with five arches overlooking a terrace. On the east side is a round tower of two floors with mullioned windows on the upper floor and a roof terrace. The villa was built from 1946 by a German engineer and entrepreneur, Gustav Winter, although in an interview given to the magazine “Stern” shortly before his death, it shows the date of 1958. The villa was restored in 1985 – probably with the intention of making a hotel – but is nevertheless in poor condition; the mezzanine openings are bricked up; the facades are crumbling. Villa Winter is the destination of many jeep safaris from Morro del Jable; visiting the court is authorized and guides that know they say – tip against the guards – to visit the interior of the villa. Gustav Winter was born in 1893 in Neustadt am Titisee near Freiburg im Breisgau in the Black Forest. After earning a degree in electrical engineering, Winter traveled to Argentina, where he put in service of electrical installations in large haciendas. He decided to return to Germany was triggered when the First World War, but the ship that brought the Argentine was intercepted in the English Channel by the British Navy and Winter was interned for a year in a prison ship at Southampton; during a mass escape of prisoners he was able to embark on a ship, the Hollandia, which called at Vigo in Galicia. Winter had to stay in Spain, where he put in service several power plants (Ciudad Real, Zaragoza and Valencia). He left the Canary Islands in 1925; in 1926 he played an important role in the construction of the power plant of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria to CICER company (Compañía Insular Colonial de Electricidad y Riesgos). In 1933, sailing on his boat, the Argos, he discovered the almost island of Jandía, was seduced by the beauty of the place and moved to Morro del Jable – which was then a small fishing village. He tried to build a fish cannery and a cement plant, but both projects were unsuccessful. In July 1937 Winter rented the entire peninsula of Jandía to the heirs of the Count of Santa Coloma, who owned; he made a fence 2 meters high which prohibited access to nearly island. 1939 Winter was mobilized and in 1940 he was found to be responsible for the construction of shelters for submarines on the Atlantic coast of France. In 1941 the peninsula of Jandía was sold to the company Dehesa de Jandía including Gustav Winter was mentioned as the administrator. After the war, in 1946, Winter returned to Fuerteventura and began building his villa in Cofete, while living in Morro del Jable, where he built a school and a church. He began breeding sheep and goats and in the production of cheeses sold under the brand “Dehesa de Jandía”; he also tried to produce tomatoes – despite the unfavorable environment – which were to be exported from the port of Gran Tarajal, Winter also made ​​an attempt afforestation Massif de Jandía with 10,000 pine seedlings Canary; Nothing remains of these woodlands. At that time the Anglo-Saxon secret services communicated to the Spanish Government a “black list” of 104 names of alleged Nazi agents – which included the name of Gustav Winter – by requiring their deportation to Germany for trial; none of these alleged agents was finally expelled. In 1956, the family Winter moved to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, without ever having lived in the Villa Winter in Cofete. In 1962 the company Dehesa de Jandía gave in 2 300 hectares of land between Morro del Jable and Cofete to Gustav Winter; these lands will prove to be a gold mine when part of the land will be sold as building land for tourism projects (tourism boom Jandía began in the early 1970s). In 1971 Gustav Winter died in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria at the age of 78. Shortly before the death of Gustav Winter German magazine sensationalist “Stern” published on Winter – who had granted him an interview – an article entitled “Die Glücksritter” (soldiers of fortune). This magazine will be illustrated in 1983 by the publication of false diaries of Adolf Hitler. This article on “the mysterious villa Winter and his mysterious owner” appears to be the beginning of rants about Gustav Winter and Villa Winter. Over the years journalists a copy of evil multiply sensationalist hacks and publish bad spy novels with the villa Winter as a backdrop. The unusual situation of this large secluded villa in this area difficult to access and inhospitable, nourishes fantasies, as well as the strategic position of the Canary Islands that could be appealing to the belligerents. The legend, which then creates, the villa Winter a secret base of Nazi agents whose function was to supply German submarines during the “Battle of the Atlantic”; the tower of the villa would have served as a benchmark for submarines; shelter for submarines would be built in a volcanic cave in the villa; underground link the cellars of the villa at the shelter for submarines; the villa would have been the brothel for German submariners who were relaxing with prostitutes on the beautiful beaches of Cofete; two U-booten missing since the end of World War II still would also docked in the submarine base of Cofete. After the war the villa would have served as a lodge for National Socialist dignitaries exfiltrated to South America secretly arrived in a submarine, and after a cosmetic surgery operation to give them the face of their new identity, they resumed their journey with false papers since the airport that Gustav Winter had built in the Punta de Jandía, 7.5 km southwest of the villa. Chancellor Adolf Hitler himself would have passed through the villa Winter. Not to mention the inevitable “Nazi gold” – indispensable element of any phantasmagoria of “nazi-business” – that would be hidden somewhere in the vicinity of the villa. Gustav Winter was probably an honorable engineer, nature lovers; anyway these legends only add a little mystery to the romantic charm of the long solitary beaches of Cofete.

PLAYA de COFETE – thirteen kilometers of paradise

One of the most amazing trips I took during my stay on Fuerteventura was a ride by public bus to the Playa de Cofete, a wild beach paradise on the island’s southwest coast.

Playa de Cofete – synonymous with Paradise.

You’re On Vacation!

“Sorry, the bus is full”, explains the driver apologetically. He’s not lying, merry day-trippers occupy all the seats in the medium-sized bus, and the ceiling is far too low to join the ride standing. “So sorry. But there’s another one leaving at noon”, he offers an alternative. “Oh no! This is bullshit! I’ve had it!” yells the German lady. She’s standing in the middle of the bus, yelling first at the driver, then randomly at whoever, and finally, she turns to her husband. Shoving him off the bus, she keeps repeating how shitty this all is and how much she has had it.
Man, some people definitely need a vacation. Oh wait, that’s what she’s on.

To be honest, I also expected to be the only one on the morning bus to Playa de Cofete. Doesn’t everybody else rent a car? Apparently not since as I got to the station on the outskirts of Morro Jable about twenty minutes before the scheduled departure, there were already about five people queuing in front of the bus door. Obviously, the line got longer and longer. As we hit the road towards Cofete, we’ve left about ten people behind.

You see, sometimes suffering from a strong case of OCPD does pay out. After all, not only am I sitting comfortably on the bus, I was even able to pick a prime seat next to an open window.

Sweet Nothing

As we leave the port of Morro Jable behind, the coach slowly cruises up the hills of the Parque Natural de Jandía reserve. Actually, this – obviously very popular – all-wheel bus connection was installed to reduce the number of vehicles in the natural area. It clearly saves vacationers the bumpy ride by their rental car.

A long and winding road across the Parque Natural de Jandía.

So we work our way up to the summit, driving in wide elegant curves between gravel and lava and very few dry shrubs. There are some ruins and a handful of goats and lots and lots of what I love most about Fuerteventura: Beautiful nothing.

Fuerteventura’s wilderness.

As we reach a summit approximately halfway between Morro Jable and Cofete, I regret for a short moment not having my own vehicle. A couple of cars stopped at the vantage point Punto de vista sobre Puerto de Montaña which modestly translates to viewpoint at the pass and a couple of people are taking pictures of the spectacular coast spreading below. Obviously, the bus does not stop. I can only keep a picture of this mesmerizing sight in my heart.

View of the Playa de Cofete from above.

Then, the gravel road descends down to the beach.

Life Is a Beach

At the end of the rough tire-killing gravel road lies the village Cofete. Please don’t picture an idyllic village. It’s a settlement with a couple of extremely simple makeshift houses with the vibe of a ghost town. One of those shacks is the Restaurante Cofete Pepe El Faro which is normally open every day from 10 a. m. to 6 p. m.

I don’t have to travel around the globe to enjoy dreamy beaches.

Cofete’s shore, however, is the epitome of a dream beach. There is not one building, even not a kiosk or stand. No loungers or umbrellas. Nothing but thirteen kilometers of golden sand.

Although swimming is dangerous, there’s nothing wrong with dipping your feet.

Since due to the strong currents, bathing is very dangerous and people have drowned here in the past, this endless sandy paradise is rather for lazing or strolling.

I opt for lazing, and as I make myself comfortable on my beach towel, I spot this young woman twisting and twirling, jumping and frolicking in the shallow part of the sea where the waves roll out.
Man, she’s having a fantastic time, good for her.
Suddenly she stops in her tracks and swirls her long flying locks into a bun on her neck. With a very serious expression on her face, she checks the display on a camera that a young man is holding. She doesn’t seem too happy. Hence, she loosens the bun, and her locks flutter in the wind as she re-starts her twisting and twirling, jumping and frolicking. The young man follows her with the camera. Then she checks again. And twists and twirls.
Man, this looks exhausting, I pity her. And also the young man who would possibly prefer enjoying this little piece of paradise.

Influencers in their natural habitat. Although their pics will be all over the internet, I pixeled their faces for discretion and privacy.

All this twisting and twirling, jumping and frolicking is keeping them busy the entire time we spend on Playa de Cofete.
Later, they pose together for some lovey-dovey pics, and then comes the bus to Morro Jable and their influencer shift is over and they can finally relax in their bus seats and call it a day.

Cofete’s Mysteries

There is a small graveyard right next to the bus stop respectively car park. The residents of the village of Cofete used to bury their deceased here. Supposedly, it was built close to the sea so that their souls could float away across the Atlantic.

Peeping through the door.

Due to Cofete’s strong winds, all the graves are almost entirely covered with sand. The heaps of sand also pile up at the entrance, so that the gate to the cemetery can hardly be opened. Nevertheless, you can simply climb over the low wall.

What a wonderful spot to rest in peace.

Another mysterious place in forlorn Cofete is the so-called Villa Winter, built by the German engineer Gustav Winter. It is rumored that Winter received grants from a high Nazi commander to buy the land in 1938. There are various rumors regarding secret war-related activities. Also, some Nazi war criminals are said to have been accommodated here temporarily after WWII as they were fleeing prosecution along the so-called ratlines to South America. I’ve written about this dark practice in my post on Bariloche in Argentina as well as on Buenos Aires.
Nevertheless, these rumors have never been proven.

Gustav Winter, who died in 1971, claimed that Villa Winter was not built until 1958. Supposedly he opted for the remote and difficult-to-access area because he was a nature lover and wanted to set up a tomato plantation there. However, the barren region makes this claim very questionable.

The villa stands picturesquely on the hillside, surrounded by vines and protected by dry stone walls. Officially, it is not possible to visit the villa. Yet, some guides know how to gain access for a small tip.

However, you should not get too close to the villa by yourself as there might be highly aggressive dogs around.

Take a Hike

The route between Morro Jable and Cofete is also a popular hike. You can get to the beginning of the hiking trail either by car or bus. Bus line #111 goes from the main bus station to the Gran Valle stop. Here the hike begins. It is recommended to take the early bus at 10 a. m.

The hiking trail starts at the parking lot. You can also cycle the route by mountain bike. The path starts flat and ascents eventually. On this hike, you go up 282 meters and 257 meters down. It is an easy to moderate hike. The path is well-maintained. Nevertheless, you should wear good hiking boots and take sun protection, a sun hat, and plenty of water with you.

After I broke my leg in a secluded gorge on Gran Canaria, I cannot stretch enough the importance of sturdy hiking boots.

The hike to the village of Cofete is about 6.5 kilometers long and should take 3 to 4 hours.

You don’t need to trek both ways. Simply coordinate your hike according to bus line #111 which runs twice a day in either direction.

How to Get There

If you go by public transport to Playa de Cofete, you don’t have many options. There is one bus #111 at 10 a. m. and another one at 2 p. m. To go back to Morro Jable, you can choose between a ride at around 12. 30 p. m. and 4.30 p. m.

Highwaymengoats on the way to Cofete.

One trip sets you back 8.70 €uros. As you have to pay the driver, try to have small change on you. However, since bus schedules might change, I suggest that you check the current timetable on the bus company’s website.

What to Bring With You

Literally everything. At least everything you need for a day on the beach where there’s no shade, no kiosk, nothing.

You have to bring all you need for a pleasant day on the beach. Playa de Cofete then contributes beauty and fun.

Hence, you should bring a beach towel, sun protection, a hat against the sun, plenty of water, and possibly some snacks.

Well-Organized Activities

Although I’m an avid solo-travelling woman, I sometimes like to join organized tours. Not only are they basically the only chance to put to sea. Since I’m not driving, they are also a valid option to go to remote places. And finally, it’s a great way to get in touch with fellow travellers.

Therefore, here are some great suggestions on how to visit Playa de Cofete and other places of interest on the island of Fuerteventura. Especially during high season, pre-booking online will guarantee your place at the activity of your choice*:

GARDENS IN LANZAROTE – Botanical Gardens and Green Spaces

Gardens In Lanzarote To Visit

Searching for gardens to visit in Lanzarote? There is only one designated botanical garden in Lanzarote for tourists to explore. But for those in the know there are lots of other green spaces and places of botanical interest too…..

The Canaries – Spain’s Nursery Garden

The Canary Islands boast a rich botanical history. During the expansion of the Spanish Empire in the 16th and 17th centuries this archipelago located just off the coast of Africa became a key trading post. With Spanish galleons transporting a rich variety of new plants and food stuffs from across the New World to the mainland via the Canaries – as well as via longer established trade routes to the east.

Mild year-round temperatures made the Canaries the ideal spot to acclimatise these new plant species before their introduction into mainland Spain. So in 1788 King Carlos III drew up a Royal Decree ordaining the opening of a brand new botanical garden in Puerto del la Cruz, Tenerife – the Jardin de Aclimatacion de Orotava. Which is now one of the oldest and best-known botanical gardens in the world.

Lanzarote – Challenging Climate and Conditions

Lanzarote lies at the eastern end of the Canary Islands chain, closer to the African continent and the western Sahara and is a much more arid island than Tenerife. Annual rainfall figures are far lower – just 150 mm per year.

There are few tall mountains prompting precipitation or deep valleys offering plants a protected spot out of the wind – as is the case on other islands such as Tenerife, Gran Canaria and La Gomera.

The Trade Winds, which once powered Spain’s galleons towards the New World, sweep across Lanzarote from April through until August. Creating challenging conditions for any plant seeking to eek out an existence in some of the island’s more exposed areas, where little can thrive. Whilst volcanic eruptions as recently as the 1820’s covered around one quarter of the island in a thick crust of lava.

However despite these various challenges gardens still thrive here as locals adapt by creating micro climates and green spaces in more sheltered, protected spots and by sympathetically selecting plants suitable to the conditions and environment.

Botanical Gardens in Lanzarote

The Cactus Garden, Guatiza

The Cactus Garden is the only officially designated botanical gardens to visit in Lanzarote. Cacti and succulents are combined to create a truly surreal garden-scape, set against the backdrop of a brick red former quarry.  And it’s located just a short stroll away from Finca Botanico.

View our full Visitor Guide To The Cactus Garden

Other Gardens in Lanzarote To Explore

LagOmar

The former home of Omar Sharif took the theme of the Arabic folk tale 1001 Nights, on the suggestion of the local artist and architect Cesar Manrique. And there are plenty of Moorish influences in evidence throughout the gardens here, which enjoy a protected spot tucked into the side of a hill in a former quarry.

This sheltered site provides the perfect environment for a wide variety of mature palms – such as the indigenous phoenix canariensis, coco plumosa and morrocan date. As well as the enormous paddle like leaves of giant strelitzia nicolai. Along with an abundance of other exotica, encompassing cacti, agaves, bougainvillea and much more beside – all set against whitewashed walls and volcanic stone, separated into numerous smaller outdoor rooms and spaces.

By day this space operates as both a house museum and upscale (and arguably overpriced) restaurant. So up until 6pm you have to pay an entrance fee in order to enjoy the gardens. But after 6pm the cool little Cueva Bar opens up – allowing anyone to roam the gardens, drink in hand too!

Visit the LagOmar website for more information

Jameos del Agua

Carved out of a collapsed lava tunnel by Cesar Manrique this incredible space was originally conceived as a nightclub and concert space.  But now serves mainly as a daytime tourist attraction and is widely regarded as the best illustration of Manrique’s philosophy of fusing art with nature.

The Jameos revolves around two bodies of water.  The first is a sea fed lagoon which is home to a unique species of blind albino crab found only on Lanzarote.  The second is a pristine swimming pool, reserved for the sole use of the King of Spain!  And both spaces are surrounded by planting – including shade lovers such as giant diplazium ferns hanging from huge old shrimping baskets and swathes of elephant’s ear – alocasia portora.   As well as plenty of Canarian palms and fig trees.

Gran Melia Salinas Hotel

This luxury five-star hotel in Costa Teguise was created by Cesar Manrique in conjunction with Madrid based architect Fernando Higueras back in 1976.  And it is home to both stunning external grounds and a breath-taking internal atrium garden.

Manrique’s modern interpretation of a traditional Canarian patio garden spans most of the ground floor area of the hotel and incorporates a wide selection of tropical plants, all of which thrive beautifully in this protected spot to create a real jungle effect.

The public spaces of the hotel are open to visitors and pathways wind through the atrium allowing for close examination of the many botanical wonders on display here.

Luis Villalba’s Garden

Part garden centre, part show case for garden design services this isn’t really a garden in the conventional sense.  But who cares?  As there are still scores of attractive plants on display including both indigenous and foreign species free of charge.

Local artist Villabla has a fondness for English garden styles and designs and this protected site in Conil is home to hundreds of primarily potted plants available for sale.

Visit Luis Villalba’s website for more information

David Riebold’s Garden

This private garden created by British expat David Riebold is packed with drought tolerant native species and enjoys a sheltered spot in the verdant village of Haria, in the Valley of 1000 Palms.

Inspired by Dr David Bramwell, a prominent botanist with an interest in Canarian plants this atmosperhic space is packed with examples of native flora, including rarities such as wild fresias.  The best way to enjoy this space is to book a break at one of the apartments available for rental here.

Valley of 1000 Palms

“Haria, Lanzarote” by Andrew Middleton is licensed with CC BY-NC-SA 2. 0. To view a copy of this license, visit https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.0/

The verdant Valley of 1000 Palms envelops the northern village of Haria in greenery and makes for a pretty breath-taking site.  Especially when approached from the north via the serpentine LZ1 that snakes down from the risco some 400 metres above the valley floor.

Again, this protection provides the perfect environment for plants such as the phoenix canariensis to thrive.  And local legend has it that villages used to plant a palm for every now born – one for a girl and two for a boy!

Tall palms tower above throughout the heart of the village – giving Haria a truly authentic Canarian feel.  Making this a great spot for everything from a gentle potter to a full on hike through the surrounding palm groves.

El Bosquecillo – The Little Wood

To the surprise of many visitors Lanzarote boasts its own little wood.  And whilst by no means a forest this hard to find spot atop the Risco de Famara is home to swathes of native species – including acacias, pines, thistles and wild fennel.

It’s a popular beauty spot for locals and tourists alike, offering amazing views, great walks a playground and some BBQ pits.  And it’s well worth seeking out as this is one of the few all natural green spaces on Lanzarote.
