Fuerteventura Villas: This wonderful island found just 60 miles off the Northwest African coastline, is the second largest of all the Canary Islands yet has managed to remain largely untouched compared to Tenerife and Lanzarote. However now there are three main tourist resorts Corralejo, Caleta De Fuste and Jandia which offer excellent family entertainment.
The “Gaunches” were the original inhabitants of Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands, history believes that the earliest settlement was back in 200 BC. Their origin remains a mystery to this day, some believe they have Egyptian relations due to mummifying corpses while others believe they may be descendents from the lost city of Atlantis which is believed to be close to the Canary Islands. The Guanches worked the land and had a basic lifestyle using very primitive tools with the majority living in caves.
Fuerteventura is famed for its many beaches which in total is over 100, these range from the golden sand dunes in Corralejo to the miles of white sand stretching from Costa Calma down to Jandia, and the tiny coves you find dotted all round the island.
