Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura,
the Old Canary Country, is the island with the longest coastline,
with wide plains and gentle valleys, with huge beaches: it is
a geographical no man's land, a place for those who wish to escape
from the pressures of today's life. In addition, there are possibilities
of fishing in unbelievably transparent waters, as a special attraction
for a growing number of tourists who refuse to spend their holidays
without any activity. In fact the island is separated from Africa
by a corridor where sardines, tuna and sword fish are the objects
of mortal persecution. The fishing sportsman can easily get his
share.
Fuerteventura
has a magnificent airport with a 2,400m runway where national
and international flights land and airplanes arrive from numerous,
mainly European countries.
Fuerteventura
has lovely beaches in the vicinity of its capital, Puerto del
Rosario. But in the very north and south, there are two areas
with beaches that can be compared with the best in the world.
Especially outstanding are those of Jandía in the south
and those of Corralejo in the north.
At Playa Blanca
in Puerto del Rosario there is a Parador belonging to the Office
of the Secretary General for Tourism.
