of the world’s most intriguing archipelagos, with Fuerteventura being particularly
popular when it comes to tourists. Located around one hundred kilometers
off Morocco’s coast, it is the second largest island in thecanaries, and

wealth of luxury resorts and hotels, but the predictable weather and unique
terrain make it perfect for sports such as cycling and horse riding. Experiencing
more than three thousand hours of sunshine each year, Fuerteventura is
a welcome escape from the biting cold of autumn and winter for people in
both Europe and North America, here are the top reasons to visit Fuerteventura
in 2014!
Baku Water Park
This grand water park gives
you a chance to experience the joy of relaxing in the tropical heat of
the sun, and it’s the perfect family attraction! Not only do the winds
keep the air cool and dry while the clear skies ensure that the sunshine
warms you up quickly after a swim, but located in Baku on the northern
side of Fuerteventura, this water park is very easy to get to. If you’re
looking for a chilled out day to catch up on your favourite book in the
glorious sunshine, then the Baku Water Park is the place for you! |

La Lajita Zoo
Although the beaches in Fuerteventura
are simply gorgeous, you can’t spend all of your holiday soaking up the
sun on the sands - you have to find some kind of adventure on Fuerteventura's
terrestrial landscape! The La Lajita Zoo is one of the island’s most popular
attractions, and it is home to over two hundred bird species as well as
many exotic animals like giraffes and hippos. With some great places to
eat and even a feeding and petting mini-zoo, this is undoubtedly a top
day out in Fuerteventura.

island, and some of the most beautiful views can be found inland on the
Jeep Safari. You can start your island exploration from either Corralejo
or Calte, and you’ll get the chance to go hiking and swimming in the island’s
blue lagoon. Moreover, this safari will take you to some of Fuerteventura’s
best restaurants where you can have a Canarian lunch prepared in a way
that mirrors how the island’s early settlers used to prepare their dishes!
