Fuerteventura Holidays

Fuerteventura Holidays

Sun, sand and scenery are the main attractions when booking holidays to Fuerteventura, largely because, as the second largest of the Canary Islands, it lies 60 miles from the coast of Africa. With a sheltered east coast, it boasts some of the best beaches and watersports facilities in the Canaries, ideal for those looking to entertain the kids on a Fuerteventura family holiday. However, if it's spectacular views you're after, then the dramatic volcanic scenery of the dry interior of Fuerteventura, dotted with little whitewashed villages, windmills and clusters of palm trees will certainly take your breath away.
