Fuerte has quickly become the biggest and most popular digital nomad and remote workers hotspot of all the Canary Islands, though being wilder and less developed in terms of structures in comparison to Tenerife or Gran Canaria. Especially the North of the island is vibrant with co-working and co-living spaces, digital nomad-friendly bars, and a growing community of remote workers.
Networking Intensity Notes
The island is home to a growing number of digital nomads, leading to a vibrant network where you can connect with like-minded professionals; networking events, meetups, and workshops are common, enabling you to expand both your social circle and professional connections. However, nomad scene is here with a couple of Meetups and Activities if you look for it—networking requires active participation.
