Sample the island's best-known cheeses and visit an aloe vera plantation. Explore sea caves and black sand beaches in the fishing village of Ajuy. Expert local guide with an unrivalled knowledge of Fuerteventura and its history. Stroll through timeworn village plazas and into pretty colonial churches, investigate sea caves and learn about typical produce. Between stops you'll visit lofty viewpoints to admire Fuerteventura's unusually stark landscape.

That's only four fewer than on the forested island of Madeira.'
