Beaches on Fuerteventura
One does not need to go far on Fuerteventura to find a perfect
beach, even if you are intent on seeking out solitude away from
other holidaymakers. The best can be found around Jandia, on the
southern tip of the island. Juan Gomez is one of these, with a
stretch of golden sand, reached by turning off of the Morro
Jable-Punta de Jandia road. In the same section of the island is
the pebbly black volcanic beach of La Pared, with right next door
the beach of Viejo Rey, a long stretch of golden sand flanked by
dunes. For real peace and quiet the black volcanic sand of
Giniginamar is recommended, surrounded by palm trees and other
indigenous plants. For remote beaches tourists can hire a 4WD and
explore the tracks leading to the sea on the west coast. Nudism is
tolerated on all the island's beaches.
