Island Hopping – Twice The Adventure
Day Trip – Island Hopping Nº1
Going to Lanzarote? Hop to Fuerteventura!
Aloe Vera thrives in Fuerteventura’s desert conditions.
You’ve planned your trip to Lanzarote, booked flights, accommodation and maybe a hire car.
Why not plan a day trip to the next island south too, just a 25 to 45 minute ferry trip away?
Fuerteventura is Lanzarote’s big sister and has its own personality. Watersports are big here (think Fuerte+Ventura = Strong Wind) and there are biking and hiking routes too. Or hire a car for the day and take a look. At about 100 kilmetres in length, it’s too big to see everything in just one day, though you’ll get a taste of the place and may want to return for a longer visit.

Things to do – Trip Advisor has good suggestions for beaches, cafes, museums and watersports.
It’s useful to get hold of a good map before you go. Take a look at this link for up-to-date map information:

Established in 1405, Fuerteventura’s origianl capital of Betancuria is a step back in time.
There’s a useful website for those wanting more information about hiking and biking on Fuerteventura; take a look at:

Works the other way around too – if you are going to Fuerteventura its easy to hop over on the ferry for a day on Lanzarote.
