Fuerteventura Holidays

Holidays in Fuerteventura are ideal for beach lovers, with over 150 sandy spots that stretch across 125 miles of coastline, it is the perfect destination for a holiday spent in the sun with the sand between your toes. There are plenty of child friendly resorts that offer welcoming surrounds to watch the little ones build sandcastles or paddle in the sea. You can enjoy some time on the bustling Costa Caleta, with water sports and restaurants lining the shore, or if you want to get away from it all try the deserted white sands of Sotavento beach.

Fuerteventura is a great place to enjoy a family holiday, with child friendly restaurants to be found in every resort across the island. The cuisine features a lot of healthy, fresh ingredients, such as fish and vegetables, and you will find most of the local restaurants are happy to accommodate smaller tummies with some menus for children. If, like many, you have children that can be a little bit picky when it comes to dinner time, you will have no problems with finding something everyone will love here as there is a wide range of cuisine from across the world on offer.

The Blue Sea Caleta Garden is found in the centre of Caleta de Fuste close to the beach on the east coast of Fuerteventura. This is an ideal choice for families seeking a fun-filled beach break with lots of activities on offer. There are a total of 212 apartments all providing guests with the neccessary amenities for a comfortable stay, the hotel also offers some fantastic facilities including a swimming pool, children's pool, amusement centre and playground so you will not be left short of things to do.

If you visit during February and March you can catch some of the carnival celebrations. Witness parades, galas, the crowning of the carnival king and live performances all across the island. If you’re a music lover, there’s a range of concerts and festivals held across Fuerteventura throughout the year. There are also several museums and galleries on the island, such as the Antigua Windmill Craft Centre and the Atalayita Archeological Interpretation Centre. You can combine the art world with Fuerteventura’s lovely weather with a visit to the capital, Puerto del Rosario and its sculpture park. See around 100 different pieces across the city.

If you wish to enjoy a more energetic nightlife whilst holiday, then head to the north of the island to a resort called Corralejo. You will find open air bars and restaurants as well as discos that open until the early hours, with music ranging from r&b and house to electro pop and even Latin. This isn’t to say that you won’t enjoy a vivacious nightlife scene anywhere else on the island, as a lot of resorts have hotels providing night time entertainment as well as streets lined with bars and discos.

The Blue Sea Hotels are perfect for romantic getaways. Offering guests luxury accommodation with fantastic facilities in superb locations, you couldnt ask for more! Whether you are looking for an all-inclusive holiday or a self-catering beach break the Blue Sea Hotels have many options to choose from so you can find accommodation to suit your needs as well as your budget.

With an average 320 days of sunshine per year, Fuerteventura is the perfect place to slap on the sun cream and top up that tan. With hot temperatures in the summer averaging at around 30C, the refreshing breeze from the north helps to keep you cool whilst basking on the beach or by the pool. Winters are cooler but with temperatures still finding their way into the twenties, you can be confident of enjoying a winter break and still coming back to the UK with a healthy golden glow.

Being an island, taking a boat trip is a fairly accessible thing to do. You can choose from an array of different excursions centred around various activities and sights. If you’re interested in sea life, you can experience the watery world of the Atlantic, whether you choose to do it from the comfort of a boat with a glass bottom for seeing through the crystal waters or with a scuba diving, snorkelling or even a submarine-subcat trip, exploring the Jandia Peninsula. Failing that, you can take a dolphin watching trip, travel across to Lanzarote to explore the volcanoes or visit Los Lobos, a small island nature reserve that is a tranquil retreat away from the holiday crowds.
