• Parque Natural de Corralejo - How and when did the Corralejo dunes come into existence? This is a frequently asked question.

Nearly 90% of the dune sands are rich in carbonates, indicating a predominantly marine origin for the sediments.

The eruptions of the Roja, Pajarita, and Mal Nombre mountains, located just behind the dunes, released a substantial amount of lava, much of which reached the sea, causing the coastline to recede. These volcanic formations, along with their rugged terrain, create a natural barrier and foundation for the dunes.

There is a common misconception that the sands of the Corralejo dunes come from the nearby Sahara Desert, but their origin is much closer. The dunes are formed from organogenic sea sand, transported to the coast from the shallow areas of the Bocaina Strait and its surroundings.

Once ashore, the trade winds drive the sand inland, forming and shaping the dunes.

• Popcorn Playa - One of the most unique beaches in the Canary Islands is ‘Popcorn Beach’.

Located in Northern Fuerteventura, this beach has gained significant social media attention in recent years due to its distinctive sand, which resembles popcorn!

Moreover, the popcorn-like appearance, which is neither rock nor sand, is entirely natural and not manmade.

• El Cotillo Beach & Lagoons - El Cotillo is filled with hidden gems, particularly known for the white sand coves in the northern part of the town.

Enjoy a swim in the bays, stroll through the maritime surroundings, and savor the local cuisine at the restaurants. That’s what one can experience in El Cotillo, along with a few extra surprises…

Visitors typically stay for about 2 hours, which is ample time for a swim in the crystal-clear waters and lunch at one of the local tapas restaurants.

Remember to bring a swimsuit and towel(s). Snorkeling equipment will also be provided.

• Mirador De Vallebron - The Mirador de la Degollada de Valle Grande, commonly known as the Vallebrón viewpoint, is situated at the exit of the old farming village of Vallebrón.

Inaugurated in 2007 on the northwestern slope of Montaña de la Muda, this viewpoint offers detailed views of the northwestern part of the island, highlighting the sacred mountain of Tindaya, El Cotillo, Los Pedregales, and the southern part of the Esquinzo ravine.

This viewpoint is located within the protected landscape of Vallebrón, a place of great beauty, characterized by a geomorphological unit with an elongated ridge and knife-like relief, known as the Cuchillo de Vallebrón, flanked by two large U-shaped ravines.

The easternmost point of the ridge is Mount La Muda, which at 689 meters is one of the highest in the area.

• Playa de Majanicho - Majanicho in Fuerteventura is a charming green window.

At first glance, Majanicho appears to be a small fishing village with only 137 residents.

However, upon closer inspection, it reveals a delightful maritime enclave composed of several scattered houses that open to the sea in as many ways as there are scattered fishing gear.

Majanicho is a testament to humanity’s connection to the sea in all its forms and shortcuts: through boats, a blue beach cooler shining in the volcanic sand, or even wooden tables placed directly in the sea to clean fish or enjoy a barraquito coffee in the afternoon.

Like Pedro, whom Pierre has known for decades, the residents of this village seem to live more in the Atlantic than on land due to their deep connection with the sea.

• Calderon Hondo - Calderón Hondo is the most renowned volcano in Fuerteventura, making it a must-visit.

It is believed to be around 50,000 years old, and at nearly 985 feet tall, it is a major attraction on the island.

Calderón Hondo is part of a group of volcanoes in the northern part of the island.

• Volcanes de Bayuyo - The Bayuyo Volcano is another volcano in Fuerteventura’s northern region, specifically in the municipality of La Oliva. Bayuyo erupted 10,000 years ago, marking one of the most significant geological events on the island, as its lava spread over 38 square miles.

Visitors will stop to see the large crater.

• Molinos de Villaverde - The windmills of Villaverde, in Fuerteventura, are emblematic of the island’s cultural and agricultural heritage.

Constructed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these flour mills are notable for their three-story truncated cone-shaped architecture, made of stone, mud, and lime.
They utilized a system of gears powered by the wind to grind grains, producing flour and gofio, essential components of the Canarian diet.

They have been restored by the Cabildo de Fuerteventura.

• Playa De La Concha El Cotillo - Simply put, it’s an incredible sight unmatched by any other island. There’s plenty of time to take it all in and capture memories with your camera.

No further explanation is needed! The eye perceives more than words can convey…

• Faro del Toston - The Tostón Lighthouse, which has illuminated the strait separating Fuerteventura from Lanzarote since the late 19th century to guide ships, is surrounded by one of the most stunning natural areas in Fuerteventura.

The lighthouse is located at the water’s edge, practically in the sea. The structure is surrounded by steep black rocks, shaped by the force of the sea, creating an unparalleled landscape.

The Tostón Lighthouse is enveloped by a majestic natural landscape, a true feast for the senses, making it one of Fuerteventura’s most significant attractions. Visitors will also see the natural pools and the sandy NORTH SHORE.

• Castillo de El Toston - Over time, El Tostón Castle has become a prominent symbol for El Cotillo, being a part of Fuerteventura’s living history.

Built from stone extracted from a nearby cave, it has a circular base and could accommodate 12 men. Its structure allowed for the installation of three cannons on the upper part of the tower, while the lower part stored the necessary gunpowder to operate them. Today, the Castle serves as an exhibition center.

Nearby, you can find Piedra Playa, and a few kilometers to the south is the El Tostón Lighthouse, which now houses a Fishing Museum that visitors will also explore.

• Montana de Tindaya - The most notable monument in the village of Tindaya is the Hermitage of Nuestra Señora de la Caridad, a small temple declared an Asset of Cultural Interest.

The Tindaya volcano has been declared a Natural Monument due to the scientific significance of its geomorphological structure, as well as a cultural point of interest due to its archaeological values, particularly the abundance of podomorphic petroglyphs and the sacred status given by the majos, the island’s first pre-Hispanic settlers.

It also hosts some rare endemisms such as Caralluma burchardii, fleshy plants resembling cacti.

Three kilometers south of the city, at the foot of Mount Quemada, stands the monument in honor of Miguel de Unamuno.

• La Oliva - An anonymous manuscript states that the town of La Oliva was founded in 1500 by individuals known to the Hernández brothers, residents of Betancuria. La Oliva is also the historic seat of the island’s Colonels, who resided in the stately Casa de los Coroneles.
