Fataga

Discover the charm of a village sandwiched between valleys

The pretty mountains glimpsed from the road up to Fataga elevate this village above the merely picturesque. Its white houses and narrow lanes, all well-preserved and full of flowers, along with the surrounding valleys, pine forests and palm groves, mean that Fataga is one of the island’s benighted spots.

Camel safaris through the valley of 1000 palms

Terracotta tiles, palms, wooden balconies and fertile soils make the evocative landscapes of the Fataga Valley a unique setting. The pace of life here is as slow as it has always been and invites you to explore the cobbled lanes, San Jose, the village’s only church, the museum and the old water mill at a leisurely pace. Along with its restaurants, souvenir shops and camel rides in the valley, known as the Valley of 1000 Palms, they make a trip to Fataga an exotic excursion with spectacular views.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
Do not throw any waste or other objects into the sea.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Respect and look after the area's historic and cultural heritage, along with the different items of public furniture (information panels, railings, seats, lighting, etc.).
