What to do in Fuerteventura

What to do in Fuerteventura Those that have not visited Fuerteventura always ask "what can we do in Fuerteventura". Hopefully we will answer a few questions on this page to ensure you will know what to expect during your holiday in the Sun!
Take a trip to the Fuerteventura Zoo Visit the many Magnificent Beaches in Fuerteventura Golf in Fuerteventura Water Sports in Fuerteventura	Do Nothing Relax around the Pool in Villa Mara Take a Trip to Lanzarote Baku Water Park and Animal Experience Fuerteventura
Do Nothing Relax around the Pool The Swimming Pool..... There is the option of simply relaxing around the pool on the sun beds and just chilling! The swimming pool (not a small kidney shaped pool!) is a good size to take a dip, so there really is no reason to leave the Villa!	Baku Water Park and Animal Experience Fuerteventura The Baku Water Park that incorporates the Animal experience in Corralejo is very popular with locals and tourists alike. Although not the largest water park in Europe it has a variety of slides for toddlers to elders. It certainly is a day to remember in Corralejo The last time we visited we found that a family ticket can be purchased. From Black holes, Giant slides to seeing animals, including goats and sea lions this really is a fantastic day out for all the family.
Water Sports Water Sports are really in abundance on the Island of Fuerteventura do to the crystal clear waters, these include the following: Windsurfing Kite Surfing Diving Snorkelling Deep Sea Fishing Sailing Jet Skiing Swimming And of course Surfing!	Take a trip to the Zoo The Fuerteventura Zoo is in the south of the Island and is a good one but is an hour and a half hours drive from Corralejo, in our opinion well worth it. The organized trips would be easier if you have not hired a car or do not like driving on the right hand side of the road! Many animals and shows can be seen including Sea lions, Birds of Prey Parrots, Hippopotamus's, Camels, Reptiles and of course the Giraffes!
Take a Trip to Lanzarote There are three ways to take a day trip to Lanzarote. First is the ferry to Puerto del Carmen. This is designed as a shopping trip for a few hours but benefits on the return journey as a glass bottomed boat. The the abundance of sea life can be seen through the crystal clear waters from the safety of the boat. Secondly an organised trip to the Timanfaya National Park Lanzarote that still has an active Volcano. The trip starts of with a ferry trip via the Naviera Armas Ferry or the Fred Olson Express Ferry. Or thirdly, the cheapest option is to wander down to the harbour and book your own tickets on the ferry via the Naviera Armas Ferry or the Fred Olson Express Ferry. You can of course take your hire car over, but please make sure you obtain permission to take your hire car to other Islands in the Canary's as not all hire car companies allow this. Do be careful as your insurance can be in-valid!	Visit the many Magnificent Beaches Fuerteventura has 155 Beaches, the majority of which are Golden Sand as seen in these photographs. Above is two of the many beaches off the Corralejo Sand Dunes. There is also El Cotillo beach that is a 25 km drive from Villa Mara. It is possible to catch a bus to the small fishing village in the North West of the Island for a few Euros return. There are not many places in Europe that can offer such great Beaches as Fuerteventura!
	Golf in Fuerteventura For those interested in Golf in Fuerteventura there are a few 18 hole courses and a couple of 9 hole courses (as 1 is pictured to the left) As seen on the left there is a cracking little 9 hole in Corralejo about 2km from Villa Mara. About 40km's from the Villa are two championship 18 hole courses located in Caleta de Fuste. The first, aptley named Fuerteventura Golf opened in 2004 and held the Spanish Open in the same year... Further South in Jandia is another 18 Hole course to battle your wits!!!
