Once a quiet fishing village community, Corralejo has developed into Fuerteventura’s top resort. The main attraction lies in its ten kilometre long white sandy beach backed by spectacular dunes, which cover approximately twenty square kilometres and have been designated a protected area. These magnificent sands are popular with sun-worshippers, windsurfers and naturists alike. A full range of watersports are available at Flag Beach and in Corralejo town. Windsurfing and diving are popular and for land based activities the flat terrain around the resort lends itself to off-road cycling. There are number of boat excursions from the harbour including a trip to the uninhabited Isla de Lobos just a few kilometres off the coast and the neighbouring island of Lanzarote which is only 20minutes by ferry. Evenings in Corralejo are livelier than elsewhere on the island but still low key. The old town is the place for an atmospheric meal or a drink in one of the numerous bars.
