Elect's take

"Corralejo has a natural beauty that sets it apart from most Canary Island resort towns. The dunes are extraordinary and the combination of outstanding beaches, world class water sports and a relaxed town character creates a destination I genuinely enjoy."

The Parque Natural de las Dunas de Corralejo protects a spectacular 10 kilometre stretch of Saharan-like white sand dunes, providing some of the most beautiful beach scenery in Spain. The water around Corralejo is exceptionally clear with excellent snorkelling. Fuerteventura is widely regarded as Europe's premier windsurfing and kitesurfing destination. A short ferry crossing connects Corralejo with the volcanic island of Lanzarote.
