If you are looking for a destination that has spectacular coastal scenery, look no further. Fuerteventura is an island where the inland is rather bare and makes you feel like you are on Mars. When you reach the coast, however, you will be treated with breathtaking nature and splendid beaches. In the north of the island, you should not miss out on visiting the two cities El Cotillo and Corralejo.

Here is some of what awaits you:
