Things to do on Fuerteventura holidays

Properties in Fuerteventura allow great access to beaches, although you first have to drag yourself away from your holiday villa pool! Fuerteventura’s clear warm waters make it ideal for a huge variety of water sports. The near constant breeze not only provides refreshment from the summer heat, but allows kite-surfing courses to be run daily. Fuerteventura holidays also have fantastic windsurfing, kite-boarding, surfing and luxury sailing. The crystal clear warm waters are a haven for both snorkeling and scuba diving. The glass bottom boat, El Majorero is a ‘must do’ activity on any Fuerteventura holiday.

There are also many provisions for golf. The Castillo Golf Club is in Fuerteventura, and also houses a bowling alley, cinema, luxury villas for rent and of course, a top-class 18 hole golf course. There are also golfing facilities at Campo Golf Calete, with a 5 star course, community swimming pool, bi-lingual cinema and leisure centre.

Much of Fuerteventura’s landscape is off limits for 4x4s, so cycling is a hugely popular way to investigate the area away from the beaches. Volcanic craters, river mouths and dramatic coastal views can all be found by bicycle, and for those who require a little more speed, there are off-road motorcycle tours too!
