Paradise in Corralejo Fuerteventura 🇪🇸

Corralejo is a town on the northeast coast of Fuerteventura, one of the Canary Islands of Spain. It’s known for its Natural Park , featuring windy , dune -backed beaches and is home to endangered wildlife as well as Montana Roja ,a volcano with panoramic views. I did manage to see some goats 🐐 and some chipmunks scurrying around the rocks in the dunes. The town a former fishing village is dotted with eateries and bars , nearby lobos Island is a nature preserve home to rare birds. I wanted a three night stay somewhere quiet and peaceful away from the crowds and the touristy area of Corralejo , and I found a beautiful Apartment. Featuring a private pool and pool views with also beautiful views of Corralejo Dunes and Natural Park, I was located in a quieter area of Corralejo and about 1km from Playa del Pozo (Flag Beach great for water sports ) and all the popular and most beautiful beaches on the island. Playa del Moro and Grandes Playas Corralejo had to be my personal favourites with beautiful white sand and crystal clear water amazing for swimming and snorkelling. There are restaurants and shops close to the beaches , and the nearest airport is Fuerteventura Airport 35km from Corralejo, if you want the main town and busy area , with nightlife ,loads of shops, and even more restaurants and bars that’s the place to be it’s a 30min walk away from Playa del Pozo, and if your wanting the Port for regular ferries to Lanzarote that’s about an hour walk from the beaches, a taxi is not a bad idea especially on a hot day. I had a lovely relaxing stay in Corralejo , it was quiet and peaceful which was everything I wanted , I hardly heard a noise from anyone when I was there, and also got very lucky with the weather during my stay, it’s an ideal area to enjoy the unique natural environment,with impressive views of the dunes and Natural park, and all the best beaches on the island. I spent my 3 days relaxing, swimming in the sea and exploring this beautiful area of Fuerteventura . If you’re looking for a quiet stay head out of the main town area and into the dunes, it’s more relaxed with less people and a more chilled out vibe 👌
