Things to do in Fuerteventura
Many that
have not been to Fuerteventura ask the
famous question "what is there to do in Fuerteventura!" Well apart from the
obvious like sunbathing, chilling,
relaxing, walking, cycling, and swimming
in the pool or venturing to the seaside
that's if you can decide on which beach
to use!
With 155 golden Sandy Beaches you really are
spoilt for choice when it comes to
choosing a beach! However, there are many not so obvious choices'
for those that have not been to the Island
before.
In and
about Corralejo many will take part in
the following activities, some are
strenuous and some less..
You can.........
Surf,
Wind Surf or Kite Surf either o n
your own if you are competent or use
one of the many surf schools in
Fuerteventura.
There
are many options for cycling either
mountain biking or road cycling,
Although there are many hire shops
prices are not cheap! It maybe
better and cheaper to bring your own
Scuba
Diving can be practiced in the clear
crystal waters around the coast line
of Furteventura, or you can simply
do a bit of snorkelling and watch
the abundance of marine life
swimming below you. Many courses can
be taken if you wish to take
qualifications in Scuba diving. With
the sea temperature seldom dropping
below 20ēC it is better to try and
dive off Fuerteventura rather than
the colder waters of Northern
Europe!
Those
that drive have the option of one of the
many tours of either a Buggy or a Quad
Bike. These take you on parts of the
Island that you would not normally find
or see (there great fun too!).
Those that
do not drive can also enjoy the beauty
via cycling around the island of
Fuerteventura. Whether you are a
keen mountain biker or road bike
enthusiastic a base in Corralejo staying
in our one bedroom or two bedroom could
really be the starting point to a great
holiday. Cyclists be aware if you
are thinking of hiring a bike for the
duration of you holiday it can work out
very expensive, It may be cheaper to
bring your bike out with you, arrange an
airport transfer, then enjoy the
magnificent scenery around Fuerteventura
at your own pace.
