Question

What is it like on Fuertaventura?

Answer 1

It's very nice - hot, lovely beaches, sometimes it's quiet but there's lots to see and do.

Answer 2

Sand dunes in Correlejo, clubs in Costa Calma and Germans in Jandia! Its a really lovely island and I would recommend it to anyone. Also handy for day trips to Lanzerote! Sometimes its a little windy though as fuerte ventura means strong wind in Spanish.

Answer 3

Fuerteventura, is one of the busiest of the Canary Islands airports. See http://www.spain4uk.co.uk/balearic_canar...

Answer 4

Supposed to be windy! good for watersports though. Fairly quiet place.

Answer 5

Recommended.  There are fantastic beaches with clear blue sea, the interior is like desert, and there's loads to do.

Try a jeep safari (prepare to get dirty), or camel ride.  If you've got a bit of cash, a helicopter tour of the island will take your breath away.

Good surfing, I believe (not my kind of thing).

Food and drink fairly cheap, year round sunshine.

If you're going, I'm jealous.

Answer 6

it can be very windy and if the wind is blowing off africa you can get sandstorms

Answer 7

Supposed to be beautiful but its name means strong winds and it is meant to be very windy. I wouldn't recommend it as a winter holiday destination.

Answer 8

Much prefered Lanzarote.

Answer 9

great in Corallejo especially.

I've been three times. It's a volcanic Ireland, looks like you'd imagine Mars in places but lots of sun - windy though.

The beaches are super in many areas.

Went to the Imagine Piano Bar in corralego & saw Eric Sjypestein playing last time & he had a guest Howard Moss - it was the greatest musical night ever.

Yes go to Fuerteventura, also great value, ate at the HONG KONG chinese in corralejo , fantastic.
