A little fishing village consisting of only a few houses. In front Strand von Pozo Negroof the sheltered, walled terrace of the Los Pescadores fish restaurant, tables, chairs and sunshades stand right on the black pebble beach. At high tide, the water almost comes up to the white house fronts.
The road to Pozo Negro leads through some of the most barren countryside on the island, and has its own special kind of beauty. To the right of the road runs a broad cataract, an impressive, petrified stream of black lava that millions of years ago flowed into the sea by Pozo Negro. The extensive buildings near the main road are part of Fuerteventura´s largest agricultural centre. There is a tree nursery (carefully protected by fences), and experimental fields where work on intensifying tomato, potato and onion growing is performed. Apart from goats, experiments with breeding sheep and pigs, rabbits, cattle, horses and dromedaries are also carried on. Small farmers who don not process their own crops or sell them at market themselves can deliver their goat’s milk and cheese, meat or other agricultural produce here, for cooperative processing and marketing. Once a year, in April or May, the FEAGA is held on the agricultural centre’s land, with symposia, exhibitions, prizes and the presentation and sale of livestock, cereals, vegetables, agricultural implements and machines. This is worth visiting because you can try everything, and no one goes home hungry or thirsty.FEAGA 2006 - Pozo NegroFEAGA 2006 - Pozo Negro
