Fuerteventura Island - Brief History

From the geological point of view, it is assumed that Fuerteventura is the oldest of all the Canary Islands, although the formation took place while being driven by an eruption 20 million years ago. Whatever could be spectacular natural history of the place, human history is equally significant. The fact that the Phoenicians, Spaniards and Portuguese, and French tried to gain dominance over the island's alternative is a sufficient reason to believe that there is indeed one rightly coveted.

Fuerteventura today is part of the autonomous province of Las Palmas and, therefore, part of Spain.

Although there is no place to spend crazy all night, the island is perfect for families and couples seeking a relaxing holiday. Island of Fuerteventura is the longest beach in the archipelago and is a paradise of sun, beach and sports facilities nautice.Aceasta has over 150 beaches, spread across the 340 km of coastline, crystal-clear sea is ideal for sailing, skiing, surfing and fishing (the island has an important place in the World Cup Windsurfing). Due to the crevices, caves and tunnels formed on the ocean floor, Fuerteventura also ideal places for diving.

A good way to explore the island of Fuerteventura is to go through the paths that lead to unexplored areas, such as mountain and nature reserve Tindaya Betancur.

Most, of the best beaches are in Jandia peninsula. The largest resort here is Morro Jable, modern city that was built on the site of a small fishing village. You'll find beautiful beaches and many shops, restaurants and bars. Sotavento beach windsurfers became Mecca, which is in the eastern peninsula of Jandia, where the wind blows almost constantly.

The interior of the island is mountainous and arid, but this is probably the most beautiful place on the island. Betancur, although it was originally the principal city of the island is rather a picturesque village. It was founded in 1404 and in particular because of its cathedral, architecturally interesting, historic cultural center was declared.
