Spirit of Fuerteventura

Las Playitas – Stadt.

Las Playitas ist ein typisches Fischerdorf. Es wurde auf der Spitze eines Berges erbaut und liegt mit Blick über dem Meer. Man kann in den kleinen Straßen schlendern und die Ruhe der Stadt genießen. Am Strand gibt es zwei Restaurants, wo man frischen Fisch und Fleisch serviert bekommt.

Fuerteventura is famous for its beaches and as mentioned before in all there are approx 152. Apart from those that are directly accessible by foot from your hotel you will find that most are deserted from people and devoid of the usual rows of deckchairs and umbrellas. On these beaches you have the pleasure of choosing your own secluded spot and that it will remain yours for as long as you are there. No crowds, no noise, no beach hawkers, just you! Be adventurous, hire a car or bike and find the many deserted beaches on Fuerteventura. However for the less adventurous we give you a guide to the some of the more accessible spots to spend a relaxing day in the sun. And very importantly please, please take your rubbish home with you. Thank you. Also remember if you go off the beaten track please take sun umbrellas, sun protection and lots of water!{slide=Beaches - click to open/close}
