  • Tourist spending in the Canaries.
    Spending by non-Spanish tourists in the Canaries may have fallen in recent times but holidaymakers continue to contribute a staggering amount to the region’s economy. Figures published by the Spanish Ministry of Tourism show that visitors holidaying here during the first half of this year spent a total of €4.3 billion, an average of €96 per person per day. The figure, which amounts to a fifth of all foreign tourist spending in Spain overall, is 2.2 per cent down on the same period last year, although the news for the Canaries was not all negative. The hotel and apartment occupancy rate (65 per cent) was a full twelve points higher here than in the rest of the country. The month of June alone brought €534 million in spending by visitors from abroad.
  • New police force problems
    The new Canarian police force is barely a month old and is already experiencing rumblings of discontent within its ranks. Long hours are the main concern of the discontentment .The union says the deployment was ill-prepared and senior officers are, “making it up as they go along”. The eagerness to get the force of the ground has been the chief problem to the lack of planning.
  • Better care for the elderly.
    The government met this week to discuss ways of improving care for the elderly on the island. Senior citizens in a situation of lack of dependence are their main concern. At the present time there are no facilities for elderly care and this often cause distress in the ex Pat community.

  • Memorial service at beachfront hotel.
    Grandes Playas de Corralejo, La Oliva, Fuerteventura, held a very emotional ceremony last week to remember little Federico, the Italian boy who died last week after being buried in the sand when he played and ultimately died after four days in a coma. Waterfront Hotel Oliva Beach and a small group of friends wanted to remember the small boy and received a message from the family saying the rescue work has not been in vain. Flowers and beach balls marked the ceremony as people joined hands along the beach. The work of the rescue teams involved were highly praised by the family.
  • Casino for Corralejo
    Two licenses have been granted for a Casino by the Canarian government. One is to be housed in Corralejo and the other in Pajara. The ruling is being challenged to also include the Antigua region. A decision on that has not yet been made.

bluejazzbarintropicOn the night of 05/08 Anna Villacampa, the famous Flamenco dancer, performed in the new Blue Jazz Bar in Corralejo, situated in the street to Waikiki. Although Anna has her reputation of an excellent Flamenco dancer, she manages to surprise her audience every time. And this time she did it again… If you can’t meet passion on holiday, then where would you? Anna certainly could show you one way, in case you might have lost it… In brief, Anna is a MUST. >Slideshow Pictures: (C) Spirit of Fuerteventura

Blue Jazz Bar: the opening of a trendy bar with live music was on the 15th of July. Many people attended - young and older - and really enjoyed the great atmosphere. You can find the bar in a side street of the Corralejo mainstreet; turn in at the restaurant Poco Loco and go in the direction of Waikiki. It's on your left-hand side.
