The ‘Peaceful Island’ of the Canaries is a mere 80kms from the African mainland and is recognisable by its miles of unspoilt sandy beaches and awesome landscapes. Due to the location of Fuerteventura the island enjoys pleasantly warm climate throughout the year, with gentle breezes providing a welcome, refreshing relief to the temperatures. Our Fuerteventura holidays offer the promise of some fantastic weather, with one of our private Fuerteventura villas the perfect place to stay to enjoy the fantastic climate.
Arid mountains and spectacular lava plains are coloured in subtle hues of ochre, yellow, red, brown and black – all set in contrast with picturesque white-washed villages and the refreshing greenness of swaying palm groves.
There are many attractions inviting tourists to discover different aspects of the island's landscape and culture such as Betancuria Museum of Archaeology and Ethnography and Tefia Craft Village to name a few.

A couple of kilometres north of town is the Mirador de Morro Velosa, which offers mesmerising views across the island's weird, barren landscape. South of town is the Vega del Río de Palmas, a dry watercourse that is nevertheless wet enough below the surface to keep a stand of palms going.
