Fuerteventura holidays  


Golden sand dunes contrast against a mountainous interior, all drenched in year-round sunshine. Underwater volcanic eruptions and quakes have created a unique and dramatic landscape, just 60 miles from Africa's coastline. Meaning 'strong winds', Fuerteventura is home to the world speed surfing championships, and its beautiful climate, sweeping beaches and crystalline waves seduce sun seekers, families and windsurfers to its serene shores.
