Fuerteventura is the second largest of the Canaries although one of the least developed.
The Canary Islands offer excellent value for money and are easily reached from mainland Europe. You arrive at the airport in Puerto Rosario and head North to Corralejo (25 minutes). Generally it is a good idea to have car hire although this is not essential.
The Kite Surf Spots:
Fuerteventura offers a variety of conditions depending on the time of year and location; from super flat shallow lagoons to full on wave sailing spots. We know this area extremely well so please call for a personal account and advice on suitability.
FLAG BEACH: There are many other more secluded spots all around the island (including some awesome wave sailing) that are best accessed on a safari. You can join groups of up to 6 kitesurfers of similar standard, and be taken by 4x4 to a new spot each day. For the more adventurous this is an excellent way to get the very best from the island.

The Kite Surfing:
Fuerteventura offers kitesurfers the opportunity to sail in a whole variety of conditions. The summer gives the best winds, the winter the best waves. Flag Beach has a range of conditions; the wind is cross shore from the left with a sandy launch in front of the centre with some shore break. 200m offshore is a deep reef that can provide good jumping and an ideal spot to start learning to wave ride.
Wave sailors will want to try out some of the other breaks around the north that include Glass Beach, Punta Blanca and Cotillo. Each works in slightly different conditions.
