Coastal Discovery Guided Tour in Corralejo

Context This tour explores the northern part of Fuerteventura, highlighting the Natural Park of the Corralejo Dunes—a protected area featuring over 10 km of dunes formed from marine shells and turquoise waters. As you walk, fine sand is carried by the wind, revealing a landscape where desert and ocean meet. This region offers a mosaic of volcanic and coastal ecosystems, reflecting the unique geology of the Canary Islands.

The Experience The tour begins with a transfer by minivan from Corralejo to the dunes, where you’ll walk on soft white sand and pause to photograph the striking contrast between desert and sea. Next, visit the Malpaís, known for its vividly colored volcanic formations, followed by a relaxing break at Los Lagos beaches in El Cotillo for swimming and sunbathing. The tour includes stops at the Castillo del Tostón and the Faro de El Cotillo, where salty air and sea breezes enhance the local stories. The day ends with a visit to a traditional aloe vera farm to learn about cultivation and taste local products.

For Whom Ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and travelers who value local culture and small-group experiences with personalized attention. Requires good mobility for walking on dunes and uneven terrain, so not suitable for guests with limited mobility or those seeking high-intensity activities.

Local Context The area blends natural and cultural heritage, where aloe vera farming traditions coexist with coastal history, as seen in the Castillo del Tostón. Locals maintain a deep connection to the volcanic and marine environment, preserving ancestral practices and promoting sustainable tourism.
