Dunes, Oceans and Winds

Excellent

Surrounded by dunes in this immense protected park and with splendorous beaches, considered the best in the Canary Islands, we can submerge in different spiritual “baths”. I say spiritual because there is so much beauty around, that it is the feeling the landscape provokes.

Fine and golden sand, a turquoise ocean and the stunning Isla de Lobos on the horizon make you feel privileged for being able to see and feel this. Besides being immense, there are a lot of surfers, with huts full of boards, the warm breeze is not uncomfortable and the coasts will make you fall in love with the place.

Le parc naturel de Corralejo se trouve...

Le parc naturel de Corralejo se trouve dans le département de la Oliva, dans la partie nord de l´ile canarienne de Fuerteventura. C´est un espace de dunes, nu peu comme celles de Maspalomas que l´on trouve au sud de Gran Canaria, avec la particularité qu´elles sont sauvages encore aujourd´hui. Pour y aller, il faut d´abord rejoindre le village de Corralejo, accessible en transport public insulaire, mais aussi en ferry depuis l´ile de Lanzarote. Le ferry part plusieurs fois par jour pour relier Corralejo et Playa Blanca. Le parc naturel se trouve à 20 minutes en voiture du centre de Corralejo. La zone des dunes a été déclarée parc naturel en 2002, pour son grand intérêt scientifique, et son excellent état de conservation. On marche dans les dunes pour rejoindre la plage, et selon les envie de faire du sport et ton état de santé, tu peux continuer à travers les dunes, on y monte, on en redescend en courant, on tombe, on se relève, et c´est reparti. La plage est grande et très propre, il est peu probable qu´il faille la partager avec beaucoup de monde car il n´y a pas de constructions touristiques autour, mais il y a pas mal de vent, donc on y vient plus pour faire du sport nautique que pour la bronzette serviette.

Stunning Beaches

Impresionantes Playas

Impresionantes playas escondidas tras las dunas, de aguas cristalinas y color turquesa. Arena casi blanca formada en gran parte por restos de conchas y caparazones en trocillos. Se mantiene fresca y no quema en las horas de más sol. Destaca la gran cantidad de corralitos aprovechando las piedras negras de la zona, donde poder resguardarse del viento, o simplemente tener más intimidad. Playa mixta, donde poder tocar la libertad y conectar con la naturaleza al instante. Durante el tiempo que he estado en la isla, viento suave que ha permitido una estancia en la playa agradable. Grandes dunas, y alguna cabra suelta por ahí. En definitiva, destaco de la playa: - Espacio singular de dunas gigantes. - Arena blanca. - Corralitos.
Stunning hidden beaches behind the dunes, crystal clear and turquoise. Almost white sand formed largely remains of shells and shells in trocillos. It stays fresh and does not burn in the sun more hours. It highlights the large number of pens drawing black stones in the area, where you can shelter from the wind, or simply to have more privacy. Mixed beach, where you can play free and connect with nature instantly. During the time I've been to the island, gentle wind that allowed a stay in the nice beach. Large dunes, and a goat loose out there. In short, I emphasize from the beach: - singular space giant dunes. - White sand. - Corralitos.

Desert and azure sea

Deserto e mare azzurro

A Fuerteventura un luogo di grande impatto visivo sono le famose dune di Corralejo. Qui le dune del deserto finiscono sulla spiaggia e si vanno a bagnare nelle acque blu dell'oceano Atlantico. In questo parco non è difficile incontrare uccelli e rettili. Un luogo incantato dove il deserto si sposa con il mare
In Fuerteventura a place of great visual impact are the famous dunes of Corralejo. Here the desert dunes end up on the beach and go to bathe in the blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. This park is not difficult to see birds and reptiles. An enchanted place where the desert is matched by the sea

In the desert

En el desierto

Me gusto Fuerteventura. No se por que. No tiene árboles, no tiene verde, solo terreno árido y pqueños montecitos (algunos volcanes) pero me gusto. Aquí pongo las dunas de Corralejo, al norte de la isla. Gran extensión, actualmente pasa una carretera por el medio pero he oído decir que la van a cortar al tráfico. Muy buen sitio para ir de vacaciones ya que tiene muy buenas playas. Se habla de mucho viento, pero yo el tiempo que estuve no lo sufri.
I like Fuerteventura. Do not know why. No trees, no green, just pqueños arid terrain and mounds (some volcanoes) but I liked it. Here I put the dunes of Corralejo, in the north of the island. Great extension, currently a road passes through the middle but I hear they're going to cut traffic. Very good place to go on holiday as it has very good beaches. It speaks windy, but I my time not suffering.

Playas espectaculares de arena fina y grandes dunas para fotografiarse. Un lugar que no hay que perderse. Cuidado con aparcar en el margen de la carretera que el movimiento de arena es constante y después se entierran las ruedas. En Corralejo se puede ir de compras y disfrutar de su paseo marítimo, así como coger un barco para isla de lobos, otro espectáculo de lugar.
spectacular beaches of fine sand and large dunes to photograph. A place not to be missed. Beware parking on the side of the road that sand movement is constant and after the wheels are buried. In Corralejo you can go shopping and enjoy your ride Martim, as well as take a boat to island of wolves, another spectacle of place.

Un lugar insólito, a la izquierda la extensa playa de arena blanca y a la derecha la inmensidad del desierto, un lugar donde el tiempo se detiene y se hace infinito. Visitar este sitio en el atardecer es muy recomendable, pues pueden verse preciosas estampas como ésta en la que el tiempo parece haberse detenido.
An unusual place, left the white sandy beach and right the vastness of the desert, a place where time stands still and becomes infinite. Visit this site at sunset is highly recommended, as they can be beautiful prints like this in which time seems to stand still.

Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura

He estado en el Sáhara e indudablemente las dunas de El Corralejo, en la punta norte de la isla de Fuerteventura, sobrepasan todo lo imaginable. Si eliges el atardecer, aún mejor. Y si llevas niños, la diversión está asegurada (eso sí: que cierren la boca bien fuerte si no quieren que la arena blanca se les cuele en el interior. ¡Es una sensación muy desagradable)!!.
I've been in the Sahara and undoubtedly the dunes of El Corralejo, on the northern tip of the island of Fuerteventura, beyond anything imaginable. If you choose the evening even better. And if you bring kids, fun is guaranteed (yes: to shut up really hard so not to white sand strain were inside.'s A very unpleasant feeling)!.

there are some dining options

Bel posto, molto suggestivo.

Excellent
Appena ti immergi nelle dune sempre di iniziare un'avventura della quale non sai il finale. Le dune sono lunghe km, io mi sono fermato dove ho trovato parcheggio, circa a metà. Superate le dune si incontra un mare fantastico. Ci sono sia spiagge che scogliera. Ci sono dei punti ristoro. Sono stato a fine settembre e la spiaggia non è affatto caotica. Frequentata da nudisti come tutta l'isola.
nice place, very impressive. as soon as you dive into the dunes you always start an adventure of which you do not know the ending. the dunes are long km, I stopped where I found parking, about halfway. overcoming the dunes you encounter a fantastic sea. there are both beaches and cliffs. there are some dining options. I was in late September and the beach is not quite chaotic. frequented by nudists like the whole island.

Dunes, beaches and good weather

Dunas, playas y buen clima

El parque natural de Corralejo, en la isla de Fuerteventura, es para mi uno de los lugares por excelencia de lo que yo llamo el caribe español. Kilómetros de playa de fina arena blanca bañan las costas del norte de la isla y forman un espectacular paisaje donde la arena invade cualquier rincón.
Corralejo Natural Park, on the island of Fuerteventura, is for me one of the quintessential of what I call the Spanish Caribbean. Miles of white sand beach along the coasts of the north of the island and form a spectacular landscape where the sand invades every corner.

Una de las experiencias más hermosas y divertidas es pasar una mañana recorriendo y dando saltos (jumps) en las hermosas y grandes dunas de Corralejo. Después de las risas, te puedes acercar hasta la playa para darte un baño en sus aguas de color turquesa.
