Reiseführer Fuerteventura

Fuerteventura is the "Island of Eternal Summer," a bathing paradise with fine golden beaches as far as the eye can see, crystal-clear waters, and sunshine almost every day. Dream beaches stretch to the horizon at the dunes of Corralejo, and the giant lagoon of Los Gorriones is a must for every surfer and kitesurfer. The island's interior is unspoiled, a mix of Andalusia and African semi-desert, and author Dieter Schulz knows the most beautiful spots. The journey takes you through villages and green oases, lava valleys, and rolling gorges, a tranquil play of lights and colors. For example, to the old island capital Betancuria, awarded the title of "most beautiful place on the island." White houses, closely packed together, rise terraced from the valley floor up the slopes. Many of the approximately 500 residents make a living from handicrafts and tourism. Peace can be found here early in the morning or late in the afternoon when the large influx of visitors has passed. Each chapter of the guide begins with a double page that presents the contents along with an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Color-coded page number boxes corresponding to the chapters make it easier to navigate the book. Of course, the guide includes tried-and-true practical tips on travel questions from A-Z. Maps with page references, a large fold-out map of the island, colored chapter markers, and a detailed index allow for quick orientation. Stories about the island and its inhabitants provide an authentic insight into the daily lives of the islanders. It includes the 20 most beautiful hikes on Fuerteventura, a Spanish language guide, and extra tips for families with children.
