Corralejo Fuerteventura dunes north resort

Good

The north party-town and kite hub — sand-dunes nature reserve, Lobos island ferry, busiest nightlife on the island.

Was a fishing village, now the islands liveliest resort — Irish bars, surf shops and tapas next to a 30sqkm protected dune nature reserve. Lobos islet ferry leaves the harbour; Lanzarote ferry leaves it too. Younger and bigger party crowd than the south.
