Sun, sand and sea are the main
players representing Fuerteventura. Endless beaches in
the south and white dunes in the north shaped by the
gentle passat wind attract hordes of sun worshippers and
water lovers. But the barrenness of the landscape, to a
great extent devoid of people, is fascinating in itself,
and its gently rounded summits, volcanic cones and black
lava fields have also found their aficionados.
MARCO
POLO Fuerteventura takes you round the second largest
island in the Canaries which, with its small, ancient
settlements, isn't going to appeal to those seeking a
cultural holiday or who like wandering round towns. This
practical guide book, small enough to slip into your
pocket, shows the best places to find peace and quiet
and relaxing sport on this scenically fascinating
island. Or where you can simply listen to the waves
breaking on the beach.
The Insider Tips tell you
where you can have great fun camel riding and take you
to Mama Rumba in Puerto del Rosario which indulges in an
outbreak of Latin fever every Saturday. The Low Budget
tips in each chapter tell you how you can experience a
great deal with very little money, enjoy something
special and snap up some real bargains. The Trips &
Tours take you through the land of the Majoreros to the
north through lava rubble and dunes, to the sacred
Tindaya Mountain, or through the mountains to the most
important places in the Canary Islands as far as culture
and history are concerned.
In, under and on the water
Fuerteventura is an island for water sports fans.
Snorkelers, divers and above all surfers will have the
time of their lives here. But in the Sport and
activities chapter you ll also find numerous locations
for those who'd rather be on terra firma, such as bikers
and motor cyclists as well as horse riders. The Dos and
Don'ts advise you know why you shouldn't bathe on the
west coast, and should recognise the principle First
come, first served.
MARCO POLO Fuerteventura gives
comprehensive coverage of the island s northern, central
and southern regions. To help you find your way around
there s a detailed road atlas, removable pull-out map
and practical map inside the back cover, with a layout
of the Canary Islands.
