If your idea
of a perfect holiday includes, year round sunshine, fabulous beaches
of soft white sand lapped by sparkling blue sea with space to
unwind, then this could be the spot.
Fuerteventura
has miles of sand dunes, inland valleys, extraordinary views,
good food and some great wines.
Located just
60 miles of the west coast of Africa it not only has a near perfect
climate but also a distinctive North African flavour in it's traditions
and architecture.
With such
ideal weather conditions water sports are well represented and
very popular.
If you just
want to relax and soak up the sun there are endless stretches
of golden beach just waiting, bathing is safe but take note of
the safety warning flags.
Never leave
children unattended near the water.
WATCH THE
BEACH FLAGS
Red.
Do not swim strong currents.
Yellow.
Strong winds and rough seas.
Green.
Safe to swim.
The undulating
hills and valleys of the interior are dotted with small villages.
Some of the villages like Lakares are well worth a visit, here
the traditional way of life continues hardly changed for centuries.
The quiet
town of Betancuria was once the capital, and the tranquil village
of Pajara and Los Lobos Island are all worth including.
A good way
to see the island is by hire
car which is cheap and easy to arrange.
