One of the popular Canary Islands, Fuerteventura is both affordable and accessible. There are plenty of Fuerteventura hotels in a range of prices, sure to suit all budgets. Plus there are loads of activities to choose from.

Activities
While it's not a prerequisite to partake in activities on your Fuerteventura holiday, there are so tons to choose from. Local attractions include the famous Corralejo dunes as well as excursions to the small island of Los Lobos, an uninhabited area with an almost Martian landscape. Most of the island's tourist activity revolves around the towns of Corralejo, Morro Jable and the large planned tourist community of Caleta de Fuste. The largest selection of Fuerteventura hotels, resorts and villas are located near these areas. Fuerteventura also offers activities for more active travellers, including golf and many different types of water sports.

Snorkelling and Diving
Get an up-close-and-personal look at the sea life by snorkelling or scuba diving in Fuerteventura's warm waters. The island offers numerous dive shops, which offer instruction for beginners or planned diving excursions for more advanced divers. Many dive shops also host snorkelling excursions and snorkelling equipment can often be rented from many Fuerteventura hotels. Due to the calm, clear waters, many people describe their diving experience on the island as being akin to swimming in a giant aquarium or fish bowl.

Windsurfing and Surfing
Fuerteventura is a popular destination for windsurfing, due to the summer trade winds and the winter swells that blow off of the Atlantic Ocean. A large windsurfing community of people dedicated to the sport reside on the island. Even beginners or those who are unsure of their abilities to windsurf can find ample opportunities for instruction and practice. With expert guidance, many holidaymakers find that they master the sport within a day or two. Traditional surfing opportunities also abound with the most consistent surf on the north/northwest coast of the island.
