FUERTEVENTURA

A rugged island where sand dunes meet turquoise waves, and every beach feels like a hidden escape.

Best Time to Visit

Fuerteventura is sunny and dry year-round, with constant trade winds that shape its unique desert-like landscape. Spring and autumn offer warm, pleasant weather without crowds. Summer is hotter and windier — great for water sports, especially kitesurfing and windsurfing. Winter is mild, ideal for hiking and beach exploring.

How Long to Stay

We recommend 4-6 days to explore both the north and south: Allow 2-3 days in the north for Corralejo, dunes, and boat trip to Isla de Lobos. 1-2 days to discover remote beaches and villages inland and 1-2 days in the south, to visit Costa Calma and Morro Jable.

How to Get Around

A rental car is essential. Fuerteventura is a large island with longer distances between places — and many beaches or inland trails aren’t reachable by bus. Roads are easy to navigate and often scenic, especially along the coast or near the dunes.

Attractions

Fuerteventura’s highlights include the vast Corralejo Dunes, the remote beauty of Playa de Cofete, and the peaceful charm of Betancuria village. Take a ferry to Lobos Island for a quiet escape, or unwind in El Cotillo, a laid-back surf town with golden beaches and lagoons.

Where to Stay

Stay in the north (Corralejo) for lively beach town vibes, surf spots, and ferry access to Lobos Island.
The south (Costa Calma, Morro Jable) offers quieter beaches and all-inclusive resorts.
For something special, look inland for fincas or eco-stays in the desert hills.

Local Food

The island’s cuisine is rustic and simple, with a focus on goat cheese, fresh fish, and island-grown produce.
Try Majorero cheese (goat cheese with Protected Designation of Origin), grilled fish like vieja or cherne, Queso frito con miel (fried cheese with honey), or local goat meat stews in traditional restaurants.
