Welcome to this Fuerteventura hire car review

Brief Background:

Fuerteventura is best known for its beaches and rightly so. This island offers world-class water sports and its’ sandy golden beaches stretch for miles. The interior is a mixture of simple villages set against a patchwork of ancient volcanoes and lofty palm trees. Goats wander around freely and seem to outnumber the human population.

Its’ mild climate, moderate winds and a calm sea especially on the east cost, make this beautiful island the ideal all year round resort and it attracts tourist from across Europe for sailing, diving, fishing, and wind-surfing.

There are good places to stay all over the Island but to avoid disappointment book in advance, as some hotels are fully booked months ahead.

Getting Around
Given the scant public transport, renting a car is recommended and a whole lot cheaper than catching taxis.

You’ll find it also useful if you want to escape the confines of your resort and exploring what the island has to offer, particularly as some of the more interesting spots are not served by the island’s bus service.

Briefly the island is only sixty miles long and eighteen miles across and you can explore it all easily within a day. With a hire car you get easy access to the islands two theme parks the Baju Water Park in Corralejo and the Oasis Park in La Lajita and also shop in the Las Rotondas shopping centre in Puerto del Rosario.

Fuerteventura hire cars are best booked by comparing the offer available and booking in advance, with an airport pick up being the most convenient way to reach your resort .
