Of all the Canary Islands, Fuerteventura is the closest to Africa. It's also on the same latitude as Florida, as Denise Nurse points out in the video above.
What that means is that the climate is warm, and you're almost guaranteed year-round sunshine. Great if you like sunbathing then.
However, if you're after something a bit more exciting then you're in for a treat as Fuerteventura is blessed with some strong winds and so is a great place for windsurfing.
Whether you're a beginner or professional, Fuerteventura has something to offer.
If, like Denise, you haven't yet tried your hand at windsurfing then there are some great (and shallow!) lagoons that are perfect for learning.
Fuerteventura also hosts the annual windsurfing and kitesurfing championships - so is great for the more experienced too.
