About

An excellent proposition for people who want to see the island in half a day and in an intimate group. We will travel around the island in a modern, panoramic and air-conditioned minibus.

This choice allows us to visit the island in the highest standard, freely moving along narrow roads, and reach places where standard coach trips cannot reach.

We pick you up at the hotel in the morning. Transfer to the viewpoint from which you can see one of the most famous beaches in Spain - Playa Sotavento. Then we head to the western side of the island - La Pared and continue exploring the western part of the island. Visit to the fishing village of Ajuy with its black beach and caves. Trek to the cave and free time. Drive along a picturesque road between the towns of Pájara - Betancuria. On the way we will stop at a viewpoint.

The program includes visiting the first capital of Fuerteventura - Betancuria. A stop at the viewpoint - one of the highest located (600m above sea level), which can be reached by cars and admire the panorama of the island. With good visibility you can see Lanzarote.

Drive through the central part of Fuerteventura, up to the Faro de la Entallada lighthouse - the place closest to Continental Africa in the Canary Islands. The lighthouse is located on a 200-meter cliff. The lighthouse currently hosts the exhibition Art Africa Ancestral Light and Art Africa Ancestral Light. The exhibition consists of 374 works from the private collection of Guillermo Martínez Castro. Africa Ancestral Light" has been a great success in other parts of Spanish and international geography.

The work has passed through the Caixa Laietana Foundation, the Museum of Leather (Catalonia), the Caja Canarias Foundation in Tenerife and at its headquarters at Casa Massieu in La Palma. In Tenerife and La Palma, they broke records for the number of visitors.

In November 2021, the exhibition opened in Panama City. On the ground floor of the lighthouse, large and medium-sized sculptures and ceremonial objects are exhibited. The upper floor is dedicated to masks and small-format sculptures. Free entrance!
