And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours. The Sunflower Fuerteventura guide is indispensable for hiking in Fuerteventura or seeing Fuerteventura by car. Fuerteventura is different from all the other islands in the Canaries. Being the closest to Africa, there's a definite taste of the Sahara about it. The countryside is lonely but warm, bleak but friendly and, in its own way, beautiful. Beaches are what Fuerteventura is all about; mile upon mile of untouched golden sand, great billowing white sand dunes, foaming surf, and quiet turquoise coves. Even though the landscape changes little, it's pleasant to tour Fuerteventura by car, since there's little traffic. But walking in Fuerteventura is also extremely enjoyable; there are walks to suit all appetites - rambles across the hills, fairly easy mountain ascents, a seaside hike and, for explorers, rocky barrancos with hidden streams and palm groves. Area covered: The guide covers the whole of Fuerteventura and includes a day-trip to nearby Lanzarote with a car tour there and four walks for those who stay a bit longer.
