Fuerteventura Holidays

Laid-back afternoons and beautiful beach days await on a holiday in Fuerteventura.

Holidays to Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura is the beach capital of the Canary Islands, perfect for families and couples seeking relaxation with a touch of adventure. While Tenerife and Gran Canaria attract party lovers, Fuerteventura offers a laid-back vibe with stunning beaches and turquoise seas.

Two top resorts stand out: Caleta De Fuste and Corralejo. Caleta De Fuste is family-friendly, with white-sand beaches, a chic harbour, local markets, and plenty of shops and restaurants—all within easy reach.
Head north to Corralejo, the island’s most popular resort, boasting seven miles of golden sands, chilled bars, karaoke clubs, and diverse dining. Nightlife here is relaxed, ideal for families, though both resorts have nightclubs for younger visitors.

THINGS TO SEE AND DO IN FUERTEVENTURA

Endless Beaches & Ocean Adventures

Fuerteventura is famous for its seemingly endless stretches of golden sand, calm bays, and rolling Atlantic waves. It’s a dream destination for beach lovers and water‑sports fans alike, with snorkelling, surfing, windsurfing, and kitesurfing all on offer thanks to the island’s steady breezes. For a more laid‑back experience, take a boat trip along the coast to spot dolphins and whales, or sail to the unspoilt Lobos Island to swim in crystal‑clear lagoons.

Desert Landscapes & Laid‑Back Island Life

Beyond the beaches, Fuerteventura’s landscapes feel wonderfully untouched, with desert plains, volcanic hills, and charming whitewashed villages waiting to be explored. Adventurous travellers can try quad biking or jeep safaris across the island’s sun‑baked terrain, while golfers can enjoy courses with sweeping ocean views. Families can enjoy relaxed sightseeing, local markets, and nature‑focused attractions, making Fuerteventura perfect for those seeking both adventure and tranquillity.

FOOD AND DRINK ON FUERTEVENTURA

FOOD AND DRINK ON FUERTEVENTURA

Like the other Canary Islands, Fuerteventura’s traditional cuisines combine Spanish influences with those from Latin America and Africa. You're most likely to find food like this in small local restaurants and villages throughout Fuerteventura. On the island, you’ll find the famous Majorera goats. Most common recipes use their meat to create tender flavourful dishes - a must-try for meat lovers.

In the main resorts, international dishes are the order of the day, with a great choice of Chinese, Italian, Indian, and British restaurants for tourists to indulge in. Sample the local volcanic wine or try Spanish-style tapas and sangria.
