Highlights
- Cofete - You’ll first head into Fuerteventura’s central mountains where cloud-wreathed slopes plunge down to endless deserted beaches. The most eye-catching is Cofete beach, which clocks in at almost 14km. The spray from waves creates an almost ever-present haze over the shoreline. Heading off-road onto hairpin tracks, you’ll bump around the Mars-like landscapes around Pico de la Zarza, one of the island’s highest volcanic peaks. Here, you’ll enjoy panoramic views over the buffeted west coast before dropping down to Cofete, a ramshackle hamlet.
- Villa Winter - This mostly abandoned village is home to the mysterious Villa Winter, which is rumored to have been a Nazi hideout after World War II.
- Jandia - Next, it’s off to Punta de Jandia at Fuerteventura’s southern tip. Hopefully, you can enjoy a sunset over the lighthouse and Atlantic, before dinner and a glass of wine at one of the few restaurants found in this remote part of the island. You’ll then wind your way back to your hotel under the starlit sky.

Fun!! - We loved this trip!! Our guide/driver was a man called Paco and he was lovely with a great sense of humour. It’s a bumpy ride which we thought was great. Paco took pictures on our phones for us, told us information about fuertaventura and cracked jokes and made us laugh. The only downside was the meal we were given. It was terrible. Literally a lump of goats cheese and sliced tomato to start, then cold chicken, some slimy cabbage and some new potato’s with some weird sauce on for main. The staff were clearly annoyed we had just pushed it round our plates a bit. But hey ho. I would still recommend this trip. Especially for the beautiful sunset at the end and a glass of bubbly!

Great guide but bring a cushion! - Alex our guide was fantastic with great local knowledge.
Seeing the rays in the harbour was memorable & we were advised of the best time to see them.
The road was winding & very bumpy so not for the feint hearted. Bring a cushion to sit on.
There was a lot of time driving so not good if you have motion sickness.
Food was simple but very tasty - no choice offered. We would have chosen fish.
Overall we enjoyed it.
