Fuerteventura is one of seven Spanish Islands that forms the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean less than a hundred miles away from neighbouring Africa’s coastline. As for size it comes in second place next to the largest island of Tenerife. A popular tourist resort since the middle of the sixties when the Fuerteventura airport in El Mattoral was built after the first tourist hotels. Fuerteventura out of all the islands has the longest beaches and so is most certainly a destination for the sunshine, it is also great for people who love water sports. Surfers for sure will want to take advantage of Trade Winds in the summer and swells in the winter that make the Atlantic ideal for them. Climate wise, it falls in line with Florida and Mexico being on the same latitude as they are and therefore temperatures hardly ever fluctuate below eighteen or rise above twenty four degrees centigrade. There are at least one hundred and fifty two beaches along the fifty kilometres or so of the white-sand shoreline, making it the perfect place to take advantage of the cheap Fuerteventura holidays being promoted now.
One really nice expression said about the island of Fuerteventura refers to it as ‘the island of eternal spring’, that is because the weather is pleasant any time of the year. Wintertime sees the temperatures around twenty two centigrade dropping to no less than fifteen and the summertime average is between thirty five and twenty centigrade. It is regarded as a major European tourist destination, which is little wonder with the three thousand hours of sunshine it has each and every year. The clear blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean are a big pull for fishermen, scuba divers and sailors alike, who share the pleasure along with the dolphins and whales, not to mention marlin and turtles. Walkers too are attracted by the hills around the island no doubt for the great panoramas they are presented with up there.
