lovely walk along the sand dunes in Feurtaventura.

#cityplaybook Start at the Salinas del Carmen (salt museum and ocean views) and walk south along the coastal trail toward Gran Tarajal or Las Playitas (~10–15 km). Watch the color of the ocean change as you walk past rocky cliffs and lava beaches. At Las Playitas, grab a seafood lunch and dip in the calm water before heading back. For sea lovers who like their hikes salty and scenic.

#cityplaybook Spend a morning walking from Betancuria to Ermita de las Peñitas and Mirador de las Peñitas (~12–15 km round trip), winding through ravines, palm groves, and red hills. Explore the historic town after with a visit to Santa María Church and a meal at a traditional Canarian restaurant. On the drive back, stop at Mirador Morro Velosa for sweeping views. The island’s soul: old villages, earthy trails, and timeworn silence.

#cityplaybook Wake up in Morro Jable and take an early 4x4 or long hike (~12 km one way) over the dramatic Jandía mountains to reach Playa de Cofete, one of the wildest beaches in Europe. The cliffs are cinematic, the beach endless and nearly empty. Walk barefoot for hours or explore the mysterious Winter’s Villa nearby. Return with a golden hour descent. Raw, remote, and unforgettable.

#cityplaybook Drive to Lajares at sunrise and hike the Calderón Hondo trail (~5 km), then extend the walk along volcanic paths toward Majanicho for coastal solitude (~13 km total). You’ll pass lava fields, goats, and sweeping island views. After the loop, grab coffee in Lajares and unwind at El Cotillo’s beaches by afternoon. Crater climbs and lava walks before cooling off by the sea—classic Fuerteventura.

#cityplaybook Start early with a walk along Corralejo’s coast, then head into the Parque Natural de las Dunas. Soft golden dunes stretch endlessly beside turquoise waters—barefoot optional. Loop around Playa El Moro (~12 km total) and finish with a swim. Grab lunch in town and enjoy sunset from the harbor viewpoint with fresh fish and local mojo sauce. The north’s wild magic—beach meets desert in the best way.

Fuertaventura January

#beachtime Fuerteventura felt like paradise from the moment I arrived. The endless sunshine, golden beaches, and the refreshing breeze made it an unforgettable trip. Cofete Beach was otherworldly—its untouched beauty and massive waves created a dramatic, awe-inspiring scene. It felt like the edge of the world, perfect for peaceful reflection. Sotavento was equally stunning, especially if you love water sports. Watching kite surfers dance across the turquoise water against the backdrop of sandy lagoons was mesmerizing. Popcorn Beach, with its unique white coral pebbles that resemble popcorn, was a fun and quirky surprise, perfect for photos and a quiet walk. The Atlantic wind is ever-present, so pack layers and sunblock to protect yourself. A rental car is essential to explore the island’s remote treasures at your own pace. Whether you're basking in the sun, swimming in the clear blue sea, or simply walking barefoot on the sand, Fuerteventura offers a perfect blend of tranquility and adventure.

Fuerteventura Island, Canary Islands A gem of the Canary Islands in Spain 💎 The Sanya of Europe With unique terrain and scenery This is a volcanic island, and you can see the scenery of volcanoes meeting the sea in the national park in the north of the island. How to get there 🛬: Search for flights from all over Europe, or take a ferry ⛴️ from other islands in the Canary Islands. Transportation on the island 🚌: It is recommended to rent a car, as public transportation on the island is very inconvenient. You need an international driver's license 🪪 to rent a car, and the rental fee ranges from EUR 30 to 100 per day. Accommodation: There are many resort ⛱️ hotels on the island, some of which include two meals, making them suitable for family trips. You can also choose homestays, but it's best to check the location, as some are very remote. Travel season: All year round. October to April is the peak travel season, with many Europeans coming for vacation, and the wind is relatively strong. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment.

we had an amazing time in Fuetuventura - canarie islands. such a beautiful place. Here's some tips and tricks if you're travelling to Fuetuventura! Remember sunscreen at all times! it may feel cool due to the winds but you still burn. we learned this the hard way. Fuetuventura is known as the "windy island" Although it isn't needed renting a car is usually best as things tend to be quite far away and public transport isn't great here. We stayed at omigomare which is in the middle of nowhere. pack plenty of sunscreen as it's quite expensive here. also remember plug adapters. #islands #familytrip

Best experience ever.

One of my favourite destinations. Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands... If somebody asked me, where I'd like to live permanently, my choice would always been Canary Islands. Please feel free to contact me in case you need some recommendations for your stay in Canary Islands. I'll be glad to help you out and recommend some places based on my experience from several trips. # #fuerteventura #spain

My favorite place to go

Absolutely breathtaking island. As the oldest canary island, all volcanoes on the island are considered extinct. It’s usually very windy on the island due to a lack of vegetation. There’re basically only rocks and sand around, very unique Mars-like landscape. Hiking up the volcanoes can be quite a challenge but definitely worth the effort. A walk in the dunes is also amazing - it feels like there’re no ends!
