Whether or not you stay in Corralejo, a trip here is worth it for the magnificent sand dunes. Travel here and feel transported to a distant desert as you walk amongst the rippling hills of white, powdery sand. Afterwards you can make your way down to the beach and cool off in the warm, shallow waters.
Montaña de Tindaya is a dramatic peak situated in the north of Fuerteventura. Considered sacred by ancient indigenous inhabitants, the mountain bears a number of symbolic engravings at its base. As a protected site that is home to rare birds, Tindaya is only accessible with a hiking permit (which can be obtained in Corralejo or Puerto del Rosario).
