The Corralejo Natural Park is a protected area (UNESCO) on the island of Fuerteventura. It has more than 2600 hectares.
It was classified by Enesco as a natural park in 1996.

The dunes of Corralejo are located in the north of the island, in the municipality of La Oliva. They are, after the white sandy beaches, the most important tourist attraction of the island.
They are the largest dunes in the Canary Islands!

Attention:
We willl stop if the weather (wind etc ) is perfect otherwise just passing by.

We visit the now world-famous popcorn beach in Corralejo.
The millions of small calcareous algae that lie on the beach look a lot like popcorn and are frequently photographed by everyone.
The popcorn beach has been given its own hashtag on Instagram with #PopCornBeach and has also attracted the Spanish and foreign press with articles in the Daily Mail and attention on Fox News in the United States.

Where they come from ?
These calcareous algae almost certainly come from the bottom of the so-called ‘estrecho de Bocaina’ that separates Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. There is a forest of rhodolites that guarantees the fishing reserves of Majanicho and the coast of the municipality of La Oliva in general.

AN other great Panoramic View on this daytrip.
From the Las Peñitas viewpoint, in Betancuria, you will see an evocative view: a green oasis in the middle of the desert. The underground river that flows under the Las Peñitas ravine is created by human hands and forms a small lake dotted with native plants. The open esplanade of the viewpoint is the perfect place for taking quality photos.
Home of the local inhabitants, the chipmunks.

Visiting a local goat farm/cheese factory. Possibility to buy fresh cheese!

We will visit the local habitants “the goats” with the opportunity to purchase fresh local cheese in the goat farm ..

About Ajuy:
Ajuys Puerto de la Peña is a small settlement of Ajuy that used to serve as a port of the old island capital of Betancuria.

The port was later raided by pirates. Caleta Negra (“Black Bay”) lies 2 km from Ajuy.
Near this bay there is an old lime kiln.

The limestones from Ajuy was considered particularly pure and was shipped from this place up until the second half of the 19th century.

You can walk on the limestones to the deep and dramatic caves carved into the softer parts of the limestone cliffs by ocean winter storms.

Don’t feel like walking?
No problem, there are plenty of terraces to enjoy a nice refreshing drink

Walk to the spectacular Ajuy caves, which are the oldest formations in the Canary Islands.
They belong to the basal complex of Fuerteventura, created by the submarine flow of lava and sediment that rose to the surface and began to form the island 100 million years ago in the Cretaceous period.

The rocks emerged from a depth of 3,000 metres and started to form the base that these days supports this island and that of Lanzarote.

The caves are extremely important from a geological and paleontological perspective and are among the 150 sites of primary geological interest in the world. Visiting them means travelling back in time to the very origins of Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands themselves.

Did you knew?
• Walk to Ajuy caves are one of these examples of nature. Declared a Natural Monument in 1987, they are part of Betancuria Rural Park.

• It was the place where Jean de Béthencourt, the conqueror of the Canary Islands, landed in the 15th century.

This city was founded around 1800 as a port for the export of soda and grain. Before 1957, the town was named Puerto de Cabras (Spanish for “goat port”), because of the nearby watering hole. Today the port serves passengers and goods.

We visit the identical, typical old Canarian village of Tindaya and its famous inhabitants.

It is also here where we can admire the 501-metre-high anthracite volcano Tindaya…

For the pre-Hispanic Canary Islanders, the village and volcano of Tindaya on Fuerteventura was a sacred place, because they created a kind of open-air temple on the top, where they performed all kinds of rituals.
With these rites they summoned the rain or predicted astrological phenomena.
