The Canary
Islands
The
archipelago near the north-west coast of Africa consists of six smaller
and seven larger islands. Only Hierro, La Gomera, La Palma, Tenerife,
Gran Canary, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote are inhabited and opened to
tourism. Each of these islands has its own very individual
characteristics: the landscape, the coast, the vegetation and in a
certain way even the climate.
Exquisite beaches and the best climate worldwide
Fuerteventura
is the second largest island of the Canaries but the most sparsely
populated. Here you will find no industry. The ideal place to be for
sunbathers, sea swimmers and beach runners.
Multifaceted
Landscape
Wide planes and rolling
bottoms of the valleys against the background of dark mountains with
partly bizarre shape characterise the island.
The coast -
the sea
Lonely,
sandy beaches, low cliff lines, smooth, crystal-clear, turquoise to
deep blue sea. The landscape invites to explore and relish but offers
also ideal conditions for any kind of aquatics.
365 days a year.
Perfect
Temperatures
The
temperatures are enjoyably gentle and are, both summer and winter,
between 22 and 28 degrees. Agreeable cooling at night: according to the
season between 16 and 20 degrees. The dry, almost ever waving,
north-east trade wind keeps the heat pleasing consistent and the air
humidity low.
