Why should you cruise to Fuerteventura?
Impressive landscapes
Cruising the Canaries is all about combining discovery with relaxation under a mild sun, surrounded by volcanic landscapes and the sparkling Atlantic water.
Year-round sun
In Fuerteventura you could unwind and people-watch at one of the open-air cafés surrounding Puerto del Rosario’s scenic waterfront.
Art and architecture
Or perhaps you’d prefer to visit the old quarter and explore winding lanes lined with whitewashed houses, colourful murals and unique sculptures.

Highlights of Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura’s most important plant is aloe vera, which grows well here in the unique climate. On this excursion you’ll visit an aloe vera farm to see how diverse this plant can be. After touring here, move on to the fishing village of Ajuy, then to Betancuria.
The Ajuy Caves and Betancuria
After visiting the fishing village of Ajuy and its dramatic black-sand beach, explore the nearby caves with a guide, which seem to be carved deep into the volcanic rock. Afterwards, spend some time looking around the charming old colonial village of Betancuria.
Catamaran Cruise to Lobos Island
Travel north to the resort of Corralejo by coach. On arrival, step aboard your catamaran and set off towards Lobos Island, which has no inhabitants or roads and is home to a variety of flora and fauna. The catamaran will anchor in one of the island's coves, where you can swim, relax and enjoy lunch on board.
You will have the opportunity to disembark at Lobos Island for a visit of approximately one hour, during which you may like to take a stroll and explore the volcanic lunar-like landscape.
Fuerteventura Volcano Trek
Around 5,000 years ago, the area of Monte Arena was formed by eruptions from three different points, which left an impressive volcano and three craters. The tour starts with a drive to the village of Villaverde, the starting point for your trek. Enjoy a walk around the volcano and along the way discover ancient stone walls, rock formations, flora and fauna, and capture a panoramic view of northern Fuerteventura.
Continue by visiting the fishing village of El Cotillo, where you will have some time at leisure to explore or relax before returning to the port.

The currency used in Fuerteventura is the euro and we recommend bringing enough cash to purchase souvenirs and snacks during your independent exploration ashore.

The national language in Fuerteventura is Spanish, although English and German are widely spoken across the island.
The climate is mild in Fuerteventura, with winter temperatures averaging around 19°. We recommend packing light pieces that can be layered and comfortable footwear. And don’t forget the suncream!
