Best Fuerteventura attractions

Acua Water Park: Grab the kids and pack your swimming stuff for one of the best family days out in Fuerteventura! As well as the waterslides and wave pools, there’s a kids’ club and entertainment for a break when your fingers and toes go wrinkly.

Oasis Wildlife: Hop on the free bus from the island’s most popular resorts to visit the animals at one of Fuerteventura’s biggest attractions.

Watersports: It’s one of the best places in the world for windsurfing and kitesurfing, plus surfers love riding Fuerteventura’s waves. Snorkelling, scuba diving, kayaking, waterskiing, paddleboarding and sailing are all very popular here too.

Parque Natural de Corralejo: Get away from it all in this stunning coastal reserve, which stretches along the east coast for about 10 km. It’s where you’ll find those spectacular sand dunes!

Museums: Perfect for a change from the beach - or those rare rainy days! Take the kids to Dreams House in Caleta de Fuste. Step back to prehistoric times at the open-air Poblado de la Atalayita. Peek inside a pretty windmill at Los Molinos Interpretive Centre. See what you can uncover at Museo Arqueologico de Betancuria. Or find out about traditional island life at Ecomuseo La Alcogida.
