Fuerteventura is a volcanic island in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, so there are not so many green areas here, but rather an exciting volcanic landscape and the wild azure blue ocean Turquoise-coloured waves Perfect for surfers, kiters and windsurfers. Be sure to pack sun cream in your luggage. What's really cool is that there are no poisonous insects or mosquitoes here, as there is almost no vegetation. Instead, you have dolphins and sea turtles here and maybe, if you're lucky, you might even spot a sperm whale. And endless white sandy beaches where you can simply switch off.
Highligts
Many experiences such as a safari tour, volcano hikes or a guided snorkelling experience in the sea, but also a surfing and sailing course can be done anywhere here.
Hidden gems
Going on holiday in autumn is good because there aren't so many tourists around anymore

Pros
Top room service
There's always something going on in the hotel in the evening, whether it's dancing or a fun evening at the bar with live music
Cons
Lunch and dinner some dishes take some getting used to
The warm winter sun is a real highlight. Fuerteventura has great beaches, great food and lots of culture. We enjoyed the great roads for cycling. The island is a paradise for surfers

I was on the island of Fuerteventura with my mum for 1 week in September 2023 to relax. The landscape is very barren, not much green. The weather in September is very warm, there was a light wind, which was very relaxing and refreshing. It is very quiet there and therefore suitable for relaxing. The people are very friendly. The sea is wonderful to swim in because of the temperature. I can recommend it!

We've been to Fuerteventura very often. We are actually always there with our motorhome and then for several months. We like the north of the island best, it is still so natural and there is less tourism than in the south. Our favourite place is El Cotillo and the secluded beaches on the west coast. You can eat well in El Cotillo at BOAB. They serve dishes from Africa, but also very good Dürüm. If we were on the island again with our motorhome, I would do everything the same as before. The countless hire cars that you can get at the airport mean that getting around is definitely easy.
Highligts
You can experience a lot, go on various tours by boat or off-road vehicle. You can hike a lot. You can go partying in the city in the evening. You can go out for a good meal.
Hidden gems
The entire west coast is an insider tip, the village of El Cotillo in the north is our favourite place.
Destination recommendation
The island has a very specific energy and can give you so much.
Pros
Fuerteventura is a very flat and dry island, but if you look closely, you will see much more than just that.
Cons
The occasional poor water supply is a problem.

We were in Playa de Esquinzo, from where we explored the island with e-scooters and a rented car. Moro Jable is the lighthouse, the small town is perfect for shopping and strolling and the beach is an absolute paradise. Free parrots and chipmunks live nearby, simply unique.
Highligts
The sea is the absolute highlight everywhere the beaches are super beautiful and the sea is turquoise
Hidden gems
Moro Jable at the lighthouse is fantastically beautiful, at high tide an absolute warning.

Enjoy a trip to the Canary Islands with villas in Fuerteventura
The island's warm weather, its location in the Atlantic Ocean and the strong trade winds make it ideal for this sport, as well as windsurfing and sailing. The west and north sides of Fuerteventura are most popular with surfers, as waves are highest here. Scuba divers and snorkellers also tend to look for Fuerteventura apartments as a result of this ideal setting. Every year, Fuerteventura hosts the famous International Kite Festival, which is as popular as it's slightly bigger version on Fanoe island in Denmark.
The best of both worlds
Fuerteventura has a lot to offer as a holiday destination. Tourist oriented places like Jandia Playa and Corralejo are suitable for anyone who's looking to leave their Fuerteventura apartments and get active with watersports, banana boats and of course the nightlife. But Fuerteventura also offers quiet places and idyllic bays, such as the lovely Costa Calma, where it isn't as overcrowded as it is in the top regions. You can compare those regions of Fuerteventura with the Balearic islands of Formentera or Menorca. hence, Fuerteventura is an adequate travel destination for sunseekers, lovers of watersports, and those who just want to relax a little bit. Renting a holiday rental property here is also a great idea for families, as the beach in Jandia, Corralejo and on the Costa Calma are very child friendly.
Discover the amazing marine wildlife
An UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Fuerteventura is home to many animal species and a diverse population of marine wildlife. Migrating sea turtles, whales, and dolphins all pass by the Canary Islands on their annual treks. But the island of Fuerteventura has plenty to offer on land as well. The landscape is shaped by the volcanoes and lava fields – beautiful views of rocky and mountainous plains can be discovered on foot or by motorcycle, if you're up for the adventure. There are a number of tour operators that organise these expeditions. On an island as beautiful as this, wherever you go, you're sure to find your ideal villa here to suit your desires.
Typical dishes in the restaurant
Those who do not want to cook can enjoy Canarian or international dishes in the restaurants. A tip for fish lovers are the restaurants on the promenade in Morro Jable south of Jandia. During trips through the island's interior, quaint eateries with traditional cuisine can be discovered.
Tipping is customary, with good service it should be 10%. You can get cash at the ATM. The currency on Fuerteventura is the euro.
Culture and history in Fuerteventura
You are interested in history? Then you should visit the archaeological site La Atalayita on the outskirts of Pozo Negro. It includes a historic shepherd settlement and goat stables of the Mahos. These were the indigenous people of Fuerteventura. Overall, the extensive site provides an interesting insight into the time.
.
For another journey into the past, the old capital Betancuria invites you. Its center with the magnificent mansions is completely under monument protection. An eye-catcher is the church Iglesia de Santa Maria. Information about the history of the place you will get in the Archaeological Museum.
Impressive natural wonders on vacation in Greece
Although Fuerteventura is an island of volcanic origin, the natural beauties are impressive. Almost directly adjacent to Jandia Playa in the south of Fuerteventura is the naturally protected salt marsh Parque Natural El Saladar.
The most fascinating natural spectacle of Fuerteventura are in the north of the island near Corralejo the famous wandering dunes of El Jable. Held by the north trade wind constantly in motion, the up to 33 feet high sand mountains constantly change their appearance. On designated hiking trails walkers experience real desert flair.
Excursions with children from the vacation home in Fuerteventura: Pirate cave in Ajuy
Vacation home vacationers are not bound to any meal times and like to organize their day individually. With a rental car the island can be explored well. So you can also discover beauties off the beaten track.
A tip for families with children are the pirate caves of Ajuy. These served as a hideout for pirates in the 15th and 16th centuries. You can find them in the west of the island in the Monumento National de Ajuy Nature Park. Nearby you can also see the Hornos de Cal, lime kilns, and the El Rampa ship ramp.
