Context
Costa Calma, located in the southern part of Fuerteventura, features a semi-arid landscape where wind carries the scent of salt and thyme. This area blends fine-sand beaches like Sotavento with volcanic trails and sandy paths bordering the Jandía Natural Park. Segway tours here take advantage of this unique environment to cover up to 15 km with a maximum elevation gain of 100 meters, making it ideal for low-impact outdoor activities.
The experience
After a brief off-road Segway training session, you’ll glide along paved roads and coastal footpaths, feeling the texture of sand and rock beneath the wheels. Your guide accompanies you, sharing insights about the natural and cultural surroundings while the fresh Atlantic breeze brushes your face and seabirds call overhead. The route includes quiet beaches and volcanic zones, with scheduled stops for sightseeing and photography.
