Playa de Sotavento

Fuerteventura  

The Canary Islands have magnificent beaches. Some of the most beautiful beaches are located on the island of Fuerteventura. This is a Spanish island and it is located in the Atlantic Ocean, near Morocco. This volcanic island is one of the biggest among the Canary Islands. Due to its very pleasant climate, this island got another name - “the Island of eternal spring.” Fuerteventura has many lovely beaches: Sotavento, Costa Calma, Barlovento and Morro Jable. All the beaches on the island are covered with white sand and surrounded by sand dunes.

Overview

One of the most beautiful beaches on Fuerteventura is five kilometers long Playa de Sotavento. The beach is located on the southern part of the island and is also called the Jandia Peninsula. It has two parts called Risco del Paso and Barca. All the beaches on the southern part of the island, including Sotavento beach, are declared as a Natural Park. Sotavento beach is wholly covered with white sparkling sand. The climate is very pleasant. That is the reason why tourism flourishes not only during summer, but during the whole year. Behind the beach, a long mountain range stretches with its high peaks. These mountains are home to many animals and plants. Some of these are rare and some exist only on this island. Due to its rich biodiversity, this area is an interesting site for scientific researches.

Activities
Sotavento beach is very long and although it is private, it is perfect for a relaxing vacation. It also has a variety of activities for those who like to spend their vacation staying active. Every day, there are boat departures from the beach. In addition, they take the tourists on a cruise around other Canary Islands. The most popular water sports are surfing and kite boarding. It s not surprising then, that the International surfing and kite boarding championship is held every year right on this beach. For those who are not masters in these sports, there are classes for beginners.

The beach is suitable for surfing but it is not perfect for lying down, due to strong winds.  However, there is a solution for that too. At the edge of the beach, there are sandy dunes covered with vegetation that present a perfect shelter in order to escape the wind. Since water is not deep in the coastal part, the beach is also suitable for families with small children, but their parents need to be aware of many surfers around. The beach has a bar, but there are no toilets, sun beds and sunshades.    

The best way to get to the beach is to take the road KM72. Most of the road is bumpy.
