Finding Our Adventure

Fuerteventura is one of the less visited Canary Islands and has a wild, untamed beauty with virgin beaches to copper-coloured volcanic landscapes and is a worthy contender for your winter sun fix. This is the ultimate guide to Fuerteventura, where we share the best spots on the island, including the best activities, places to stay and how to get and around the island.

Known as the ‘Hawaii of Europe’, this island is great for outdoor water sports and has spectacular gold sand beaches, turquoise blue water and a handful of black sand beaches as a result of the historic volcanic minerals found on the island.

Step back in time onto the island of La Graciosa, the perfect place to escape and get a taste for what many beaches on the Canaries would have been like before development. La Graciosa is an oasis of remote, virgin sandy beaches with clear turquoise water.

La Graciosa in our opinion is a hidden treasure of the Canary Islands and should be added to your list of places to visit in 2022. A unique island landscape, home to a variety of wildlife and vital habitats. A paradise on earth with volcanoes, white sandy beaches, and fresh sea food.

We went searching for the best beach on Fuerteventura, and we think we found it.

What began as an exciting adventure to visit beautiful beaches and volcanoes, ended up in a weeklong covid-19 lockdown and experiencing travel during an uncertain time.

We needed to get away from the cold winter weather and Fuerteventura ticked all the boxes for us.

A perfect winter escape to the warm sun of the Canary Islands.
