Fuerteventura Holidays 2026 / 2027

Fuerteventura is one of our most in-demand Canary Islands destinations, with 5,511 Thomas Cook holidaymakers heading there over the past year. Known for its wide, wind-swept beaches, dune landscapes, and near-constant sunshine, it's an island that works well year-round, not just in peak summer. A 7-night stay is the top choice, with shorter 5- and 4-night breaks also popular for quick escapes.

August is the busiest month to travel, followed by June and July, though the island's mild climate makes it a strong option outside of summer too. Our customers typically jet off from London Stansted, London Gatwick and Manchester, giving easy access from across the UK.

Guests often return to SBH Costa Calma Beach Resort, Globales Costa Tropical, and LABRANDA Hotel Bahía de Lobos. Holidays typically start from around £796pp, with prices staying fairly steady at roughly £743pp over winter, or from about £832pp during peak summer. All flight+hotel bookings are ATOL-protected, with a low deposit to secure your trip.
 

Fuerteventura Resorts

Corralejo
Corralejo, on Fuerteventura's north coast, is a lively resort known for its sandy dunes, water sports and bar scene - popular with couples and younger holidaymakers.

Built around a sheltered bay with gentle waves, Caleta de Fuste (also known as Costa Caleta) is a relaxed resort that's easy to get around. It's a favourite with families and first-time visitors.

On Fuerteventura's west coast, El Cotillo combines surf beaches, seafood restaurants and a slower pace of life. It feels a world away from the island's busier resorts.
