Fuerteventura is the second largest of the seven main Canary Islands and is arguably the most beautiful. The easiest and least expensive way to explore this lovely island is on a package holiday. With everything taken care of before you even board the flight, all that’s left for you to do is to explore the island along with its customs and cuisine.
In Fuerteventura, you will have the chance to go on some great excursions such as a visit to Casa Mena La Ampuyent, which is a well kept, typical village dating back to the 19th century. Another great place to have an excursion to is Tuineje, were you’ll find an agricultural town, located just south of Tiscamanita. This agricultural town sits in a Nature Park, which is the home of the volcanic peaks La Caldera de Gairia and Los Cuchillos de Vigan.
You can find an abundance of restaurants in Fuerteventura that serve international food such as Italian and Chinese, but we suggest you try the local cuisine, especially the tapas, which are small portions of food, served as a side dish. And since the costal resorts of Fuerteventura are mostly former fishing ports, you can’t go wrong by ordering seafood, especially a dish called sancocho.
Attractive and scenic, La Guirra is a small town that has an authentic feel. With narrow streets and small tavernas, it is typically Spanish.
A balmy, sunny sport, Las Huertas is in Las Palmas, the 9th largest city in Spain and the joint capital of the Canary Islands.
An ideal base for sightseeing, Corralejo also provides easy access to the peaceful back roads and beaches of Fuerteventura. The national park, which has some of the best sand dunes on the island, is only a short 4 km drive away.
El Matorral is an area in the North of Fuerteventura close to the airport. The beach, Playa del Matorral is an ecological hotspot with a great variety of flora and fauna.
