Fuerteventura is known as “the beach of the Canary Islands”. Its endless beaches of turquoise waters and white sand are considered the best in Europe. A paradise for enthusiasts of water sports like surfing, kitesurfing or windsurfing. It was precisely surfers – nomadic workers par excellence –, who put Fuerteventura on the remote workers’ map.
Fuerteventura. The island of beaches
With nearly 150 kilometres of heavenly beaches with golden sand and transparent waters, Fuerteventura is an idyllic island located in the east of the archipelago of the Canary Islands, with ample connectivity to Europe’s main cities. Highly-esteemed by sportspeople from all over the world, because of its excellent conditions for practising water sports, the island’s extraordinary climate, its long, sunny days and its complete range of activities and leisure options make Fuerteventura a paradise indeed for remote workers.
Riding the waves in Corralejo
Corralejo is not only a popular tourist destination, but also perfect for remote working due to its broad network of cafés, restaurants and coworking spaces close to the best waves on the island. The Grandes Playas (‘big beaches’) of Corralejo, attract surfers and kitesurfing
Enjoy the sunset in El Cotillo
El Cotillo is another of the most-visited places on the island, the perfect spot for installing a nomadic office. It is a small, very quiet fishing village located in the northeast of Fuerteventura, known for its wonderful beaches, such as La Concha, outstanding for its tranquillity and beauty. Its proximity to the village offers remote workers the opportunity to work from a terrace with views of Fuerteventura’s best sunsets.
Lose yourself on the beaches of Sotavento
Comprised of five beaches that you can walk along without interruption when the tide is out, the coast of Sotavento is a long stretch of white sand bathed by an ocean of turquoise waters. A shallow lagoon is formed here, as it is surrounded by a sand bar – perfect for windsurfers. Without a doubt, the best way to unwind on free days or at weekends.
