Corralejo Fuerteventura
This is Corralejo as I recently filmed it (2015). With it's relaxed atmosphere and many restaurants it's the ideal place to watch the world go by. I filmed mainly near the seafront but there are also shots of the town and the ferrys that sail to nearby Lanzarote.

Sailing from Lanzarote to Gran Canaria Spain
In this episode I am sailing with Jeroen from Lanzarote to Gran Canaria and checking out the island. The Canary islands are all so different in a beautiful way. You really feel a different vibe on each island. The one is more touristic, the other more layed back, one is more green, the other more volcanic. But to be honest I am in love with them and the people. AND THE PRICES. You can still buy a pizza in a restaurant for €4,95 and a wine for €1,50 A nice steak with pepper sauce for €9.95. It is all still very affordable. That in combination with the all year round 20 plus temperatures makes it almost perfect :)

Pluses:
The rooms were lovely and brand new. I had a room with an outside hot tub, Which I bathed my little boy in. My room over looked the street but I didn't mind that. Your high enough to have privacy! The have some big beds etc around the pool. Most of the guest are 50+ but I went in December in school term so that would make sense! Great location, lovley beach a 5min walk away that's great for little ones! Would definatly stay again.
The hotel is new and therefore modern and clean. Staff are extremely helpful and courteous at all times. The rooms are well sized and have all the facilities that are required. Space to place your clothing may be an issue unless you are travelling light. The hotel is well located only a few metres from the Main Street in Corralejo.
Minuses:
The pool was so cold. We couldn't use it, which was a shame as I don't think I would of booked the hotel had I of known. I even called to ask, was told by reception it's heated to 24 degrees. she must have thick skin! The sea water was warmer!
This place needs a bar that guests can sit at in the evening. There is a bar in the downstairs area where the evening entertainment takes place but if you want peace and quiet there is nothing. There is a bar at the pool area but this was closed in the evening.
Food in the restaurant is buffet style and on a number of occasions it was just warm which made it less appetising. A number of complaints were made about this during our stay in December 2016 and things did improve slightly and hopefully this has continued.

Sailing Canary Islands - #4: Fuerteventura
End of September Anke and I return to Lanzarote in and sail the coast of Fuerteventura for a week. First we are sailing to Gran Tarrajal, where we take a rental car and explore the island. Then we cruise via Puerto del Rosario to the island of Lobos, where we do an anchor stop. Finally, we are mooring in Corralejo. It's a great week, but also a lot of wind, as I have experienced quite often here at the Canary Islands.
Enjoy the video!

SEA KAYAKING IN SPAIN. CORRALEJO, FUERTEVENTURA, CANARY ISLANDS
Fuerteventura & the nearby Lobos Island (Canary Islands). Year round sea kayaking paradise.
Sailing Canary Islands January 2018
For information: to charter here, you need an International Certificate for Operators of Pleasure Craft. This is an EU certificate which is straightforward for UK skippers to obtain by sending a copy of your national licence to the RYA (link here - You will also require your VHF/GDSS licence for these waters. The coast guard communicate in effective and understandable English and comply with standard protocol; beware that marinas may not.
Caution if you have not sailed the acceleration zone before. You may wish to consider going under power until you hit it, then reef in three in the main with no jib. If conditions allow, decrease the reef, but be careful of deep swell on your beam, if your heading is west-east (or vice versa). This was my first time and it was my mistake - one I did not repeat. Windy.com ( ) is helpful but the real speed of the wind may be significantly faster; beware that it can change in seconds depending on direction and land.
This was a very challenging sail. The wind went from 15kn to over 40 with a rising swell. It’s best to motor into the zone and then third reef in the main before attempting a third reef in the jib (assuming you have furling sails and don’t leave the cockpit). I preferred the swell on the bow rather than the beam and so took an elliptical course to steer, or turned into the largest swell when perpendicular to it.
Prepare your crew well - they may find the sudden change intimidating, particularly if they haven’t ocean sailed before. I was lucky to have good brave friends. Make sure you book a berth in the expected marina as some sailors may be caught out and seek your destined marina as a refuge harbour. Expect the marina not to follow VHF protocol due to a sudden influx of unexpected arrivals.
We sailed from San Sebastian, La Gomera to Tenerife with another yacht for back up following an incident several days earlier where we and a number of yachts were caught by an unexpected blow from the north west (my companion boat had internal damage). The wind died down as we headed into port where part of this film was made.
For this holiday, my wife and I invited a friend each, neither of whom had sailed in large sailing boats before. David had been fishing in the roaring forties in south Australia when young, and Jan had been on my small sailing boat in the Solent, but this was altogether a different experience. We knew they were well-seasoned Australian travellers who would relish the challenge of the eastern Atlantic, and they did – they were brilliant.
This was my first time as a skipper in the Atlantic. I’ve sailed challenging seas there before, but as a first mate – the responsibility leap to skipper can not be underestimated. I made mistakes, and I’m sure seasoned yachtmasters will likely point them out. Failing to reef prior to the acceleration zone could have been unforgivable. I was on the floor of the cockpit and was purely fortunate enough to have my wife at the mainsail clutch and a sensible crew who stayed focused; David was focused on the helm despite the boat rotating un-controllably three times. But ultimately, skipper is skipper – their safety is on you.
CORRALEJO SAND DUNES, FUERTEVENTURA, CANARY ISLANDS, PLACES TO VISIT FUERTEVENTURA
CORRALEJO SAND DUNES, FUERTEVENTURA, CANARY ISLANDS, PLACES TO VISIT FUERTEVENTURA, Corralejo is a town and resort located on the northern tip of Fuerteventura, one of the Canary Islands, facing the smaller islet of Lobos. It is in the municipality of La Oliva. It is surrounded to the north and east by the Atlantic Ocean, by dunes to the south and by arid desert land to the west that leads to the western coast and El Cotillo. Once a traditional fishing village, the town has grown significantly and today is one of the two main tourist towns on the island of Fuerteventura. Thanks to the large expat population, the town has a diverse population that varies from the local Spaniard, to the Irish, British, German and Finnish people who have settled in the resort.
The area has 7 miles (11 km) of fine sand starting 2 miles (3.2 km) outside of Corralejo, alongside some smaller bays across the coast. In addition, there are several miles of sand dunes located nearby, which have been designated as a nature reserve. The waters around Corralejo are clear and an intense shade of blue, but are affected by strong currents. The town's beaches are somewhat more sheltered and have a band of volcanic rock along the shoreline. Corralejo has existed for most of its history as a humble and unimportant fishing village, where a handful of poor fishermen worked long hours to provide for their families. In the early 1970s, with its extraordinary beaches and expansive dunes, the tourism that had arrived in the south of the island in the 1960s began to venture north. Corralejo had very humble beginnings as a tourist resort. John Mercer, who visited the then village in the early 1970s as research for a book on the island, left a record of the humble first steps Corralejo took into the tourist industry:
The village, however, unattractive and quite without interest. Why anyone should wish to spend any time there until its development is over and the dust and noise have died down is not clear.. a visitor or a purchaser can wake up any day to find a house or a hotel starting a metre or two away. -John Mercer, Canary Islands: Fuerteventura. 1973
Mercer prophetically said that Corralejo would long be simply a spreading building site, dominated by concrete mixers, lorries, floating discarded cement bags, falling rubble and staring whistling oafs. Tourism continued to develop in the town through the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, reaching a peak in the 2000s. Hotels, apartments and villas sprang up. Many British and Irish tourists fell in love with the resort and felt happy to relocate there permanently. In the decades following Mercer's account of Corralejo's tourist development, that same growth of the tourist industry saw the population of Corralejo and the La Oliva region grow significantly. In the 1975 census the population of La Oliva was 2,900, with that population now just above 25,000. Corralejo is serviced by a bus service (both public and chartered) and by a local taxi service operated by the region of La Oliva. The public bus service (Tiadhe) operates a bus service from the island's capital Puerto del Rosario (number 6), and from Puerto del Rosario to Caleta de Fuste and the Fuerteventura Airport (number 3) and down to the south of the island and the resort town of Morro Jable (number 1). Corralejo is serviced by taxis that offer local transport around the town and out to the beaches, and also travel further afield to the airport and other points and towns of interest. Ferries regularly connect the port of Corralejo with Playa Blanca in the south of Lanzarote.
