Corralejo

Corralejo

The popular resort of Corralejo is situated on the northern coast of Fuerteventura and its white
sandy beaches stretch as far as the eye can see.

With the arrival of tourism to the island, the once small fishing villages has grown into a lively,
colourful town, popular with water sports enthusiasts, who come for the windsurfing and kitesurfing.

Despite its popularity and growth, Corralejo has managed to retain its original charm and atmosphere and is an appealing destination for those looking for a sunny beach holiday, with a fun, upbeat atmosphere.

Around town
The old town of Corralejo is centred around the old harbour, which is still a working port used by the local fisherman. There is also a modern marina, where you can take pleasure craft trips to explore the rest of the island and also the ferry to the nearby islands of Lanzarote and Lobos.

The main street in the town is where you will find most of the shops, bars and restaurants; the street
leads down to Music Square and onto the harbour.

Beaches
The beaches of Corralejo are divided between the nature reserve sand dunes, which are located just beyond the town boundary; they stretch out for kilometre upon kilometre and some are designated naturist spots. 

To the south of the old port there are two beautiful, wide beaches with fabulous views to the tiny island of Lobos. There is also a smaller beach next to the harbour. These beaches are perfect for families, with their shallow, crystal clear waters.
