Playa de Cofete

Reviewed By Wayne2149 - Lanzarote, Spain

Getting there is an adventure in its self A unsurfaced rough track with a few hairpin bends and big drops thrown in Did it in my people carrier so any vehicle can do it Check your hire car allows off-road use as some track you and charge! The beach and views when there amazing There is a restaurant in Cofete so you can get away with taking food and drinks with you My only advice is get back before it gets dark !

Jandia

Reviewed By 24sportstv - Swansea, United Kingdom

Without question some of the best stretch of coastline in Fuerteventura. It has miles of beach walking available with good beach bars, toilets and facilities are along. The beach is spotless with good swimming conditions. There’s plenty of shops, bars & restaurants off it with quaint old town in Morro del JABO to the right as you look at the ocean. Well worth a visit, it’s stunning.

Playa de Sotavento

Reviewed By 6andrewc - Witney, United Kingdom

The southern end of this beach was just a couple of minutes from our hotel, and we loved being able to go down to the beach most days. The water is colder in February than say October, but there is plenty of sand and room for everyone. Facilities are limited on the beach but there are plenty of cafes etc nearby.

Sotavento Beach

Reviewed By FilipWalraeve - Loppem, Belgium

It's a long sandy beach, more then 4 km, with a huge Laguna, which is empty at low tide. So, at low tide you can have fantastic hikes over the sandbanks. This area is luckely protect for nature. So no hotels or houses in this unique landscape shaped by the ocean and the wind. During summer time the wind can be very hard. So, not so nice for a hike, but fantastic for windsurfing and kiting.

Parque Natural de Jandia

Reviewed By L7768EQdavidd - Devon, United Kingdom

Wednesday 11th November and we drove the 100 or so kilometres from our hotel, Riu Palace Tres Islas to the outskirts of the Park. From there we drove 18 kilometres more  along a twisty, undulating and unsurfaced road, that it's own right was an experience. This took us through some incredible scenery, mountainous terrain and colourful rock formations. We ended up at the most south western tip of the Park, where the road came to an end and is where the Faro de Jandia is located along the rugged coastline. It is a working Lighthouse, but not open to the public, however it was possible to walk around the outside an explore the rugged coast. We also drove an additional 8 kilometres, from the Cofete junction, to the western side of the Park to visit the village of Cofete, enjoying the amazing scenery on the way. Once there we walked along a small part of the stunning beach of Cofete and visited the small and rather unique beach cemetery of Cofete. Amazing experience.
