Fuerteventura hides, in our opinion, the best beaches in the Canary Islands. In addition to beaches, you will find towns full of history, windmills between arid winding roads, kilometer-long dunes and a delicious gastronomy. In this post you will find everything you need to explore Fuerteventura on your own: what to see, how to get there, how to move, where to stay and where to eat.

Although Gran Canaria is one of the most exploited islands of the archipelago in terms of tourism, especially visible on the beaches of the south, it hides villages that are real gems to get lost in, impressive cliffs from which to contemplate the sunset, beaches between kilometers of dunes where the cold never arrives and some more unknown beaches where you will come across few people even in the south and at the peak of summer. All this and practical information about where to sleep, where to eat, and how to get there, we tell you in this guide about Gran Canaria.

In this guide, we tell you how you can climb Mount Teide (by cable car, walking, or a combination of both), which viewpoints you can’t miss contemplating the panoramic views it offers, which trails we recommend in the National Park, and how to observe the stars in one of the best skies in the world to do so.

We also tell you everything you need to explore everything else La Palma has to offer on your own: things to do, weekend, 5-day, or week-long itineraries around the island, how to get there, how to get around, where to sleep, and even where to eat.

If you are planning a trip to Fuerteventura, the island with the best beaches in the Canary Islands, you can not fail to invest at least a morning or an afternoon visiting the neighboring islet: Isla de Lobos (Lobos island). In this post, we tell you everything you need to know to explore this paradise of turquoise waters that is just 15 minutes by boat from Fuerteventura: how to get to Isla de Lobos, what to see in Isla de Lobos, when to go, prices and schedules.
