Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Canary Islands, but the least developed.  Situated on the same latitude as Florida and Mexico and only 100 kms from Morocco, it basks in 3000 hours of sunshine per year.  It has the best beaches of all the Canary Islands, 150 in total, and unlike the other islands most of the beaches are of fine golden sand.  Indeed the beaches here are considered to be among the best in the world.

The island is a mecca for water sport enthusiasts and the world wind surfing championships are held here every year. 

There are three main tourist areas: Jandia in the south is predominantly a German resort; Caleta de Fuste on the east coast near the airport is a purpose built tourist area and Corralejo in the north is a rapidly expanding tourist resort complete with water park and local market. 

Twelve miles from Corralejo on the west coast you will find El Cotillo.

El Cotillo

The perfect destination for those looking for a quiet peaceful holiday.  If tranquillity is your requirement then Cotillo is the place for you.  Fuerteventura has an abundance of white sandy beaches and El Cotillo has some of the best.

A short walk to the north of the village lie the famous lagoon beaches, perfect for swimming and very safe.  To the south lies the Playa del Castillo, 2 kms long and used mainly for water sports, surfing, kite-surfing, wind-surfing etc.  Further to the south lie the beaches of Playa del Ajibe and Playa del Aguila, both wild and remote.  This area is truly the surfing and wind-surfing mecca of the island.

El Cotillo is still a working fishing village and the local boats land most of their catch directly to the local restaurants, so you are guaranteed fresh fish!

The village has a great selection of restaurants, with something to suit every taste and budget.  There are numerous Spanish bars in addition to three English speaking bars, The Puerto Nuevo,  Arenas Blancas and El Toston.

Surfing equipment and bicycles are available to rent locally.
