Reaching Fuerteventura's remote southwestern coast without a rental car requires planning. The local transit company, Tiadhe, operates Line 111 specifically for this route. This service uses specially equipped vehicles to handle the rough terrain. Demand often exceeds capacity.
What is the Cofete bus 111 timetable?
Line 111 usually offers just two departures per day.
The exact times vary by season. Check the Tiadhe website for the current schedule before your trip. The bus runs daily, but the limited frequency means you cannot treat it like a standard city route.
Where do you catch the bus?
The bus departs from the main bus station in Morro Jable.
You will travel via an unpaved, winding dirt road for approximately 20 kilometers. The entire journey from Morro Jable to Cofete takes about 1 hour each way.
Can you reserve seats on the 111 bus?
No, seats on the Line 111 minibus cannot be reserved in advance.
Because this is a public transit route, boarding is strictly first-come, first-served. You must arrive at the Morro Jable bus station early to secure your spot. If the bus fills up, you will be left behind.
What kind of vehicle is used?
Tiadhe uses a specially adapted 4x4 minibus for the Cofete route.
Standard coaches cannot navigate the 20-kilometer dirt track. The 4x4 minibus handles the rough, unpaved terrain safely. The ride is bumpy and takes about 60 minutes.
What are the alternatives to the bus?
You can book a guided 4x4 jeep safari or small-group minivan tour.
Tours depart from major resort towns and offer a stress-free alternative. This is a practical option if you miss the bus or want guaranteed seating. Most standard rental car insurance policies do not cover dirt tracks.
How do you return from Cofete?
You take the same Line 111 minibus back to Morro Jable.
Make sure you know the departure time for the return trip before you leave the bus. Missing the afternoon return means you will be stranded at the beach. There are fewer than 30 permanent residents in Cofete village and no hotels.
