The waters surrounding the island are warmed by the Canary Current, maintaining a pleasant temperature of 18°C to 23°C depending on the season. This geographical feature, combined with trade winds that temper the heat, creates perfect conditions for swimming and water sports.
The diversity of coastal landscapes constitutes another major asset: from white sand dunes to wild coves, through to long stretches of golden sand, every traveller finds their corner of paradise. The island also preserves an authentic character, far from mass tourism, offering a more intimate experience with nature.

The trade winds blow mainly from June to September, creating exceptional conditions for water sports. This period particularly attracts surfers, kitesurfers and windsurfers from around the world.
Rainfall remains rare throughout the year, with less than 150mm annually, concentrated mainly between November and February. This aridity contributes to the purity of the air and the exceptional clarity of the landscapes.

Sun protection constitutes an essential element in Fuerteventura. The intensity of UV radiation, amplified by reflection on sand and water, requires regular application of high-factor sun cream, even on cloudy days.
