Fuerteventura Holiday Guide

Fuerteventura Beach Guide.

There really are some magnificent beaches on the Canary Island of Fuerteventura with literally dozens to pick from on this beach-lovers holiday Island.

Fuerteventura's Beaches vary from quite busy to deserted so you can take your pick as your mood takes you for the type of beach you fancy and whether you wear anything or not. With only about four or so hours flying time out to the Canary Islands from the UK and with lots of cheap flights to chose from if you search around on the web it is easy to want to take a quick short break out to Fuerteventura during the winter and have a nice languish on one or two of the Island's lovely beaches.

Quite a few of the beaches on Fuerteventura have restaurants and cafes available especially on the Costa Calma side of the island as well as the usual beach chair and sun shade hire etc. We have not indicated where naturism is ok since generally speaking it's a personal choice as to how much or little you wear on Fuerteventura's various beaches - with everybody usually quite happily mixing together.

One of the features of the island are the sometimes very strong winds - there is nothing like strolling down the beach into a headwind - almost bent double to make headway and trying to avoid the flying sand. But then if one part of Fuerteventura is subject to the winds you can usually just switch to a beach on another part of the coast easily enough.

If you enjoy a bit of long distance naturist walking then the 16km walk along the beach from Fuerteventura's Morro Jable to Costa Calma is ideal and quite a few visitors seem to do it at least once whilst on holiday on the Island. Another popular area of beach particuarly for naturists is up at the top of Fuerteventura around the extensive Corralejo sand dunes, but for bathing it should be noted that the sea does have some pretty weird and potentially dangerous currents in places so take note of the warning flags.
