17/11/2022If you're a daring, curious, and adventurous person, a sport like surfing is likely to catch your eye. The sea breeze, the Canarian climate, and the tropical landscapes create a perfect combination for you to enjoy this activity like no other. At R2 Hotels, we suggest you explore the beaches of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura on a board. A unique and unforgettable experience for beginners, amateurs, and professionals. Therefore, we want to tell you about three perfect beaches for surfing on the two easternmost islands of the archipelago.
A favorite with many surf academies. The reason? Its tranquility and its waves. It's a beach of fine white sand, but with the special quality of being windy. Located between Majanicho and the Tostón Lighthouse, this space can be reached by taking the North Shore Highway. This coastal area with fantastic views is accessible by car or public transport.
Also perfect for surfing, this beach stands out for its diverse areas, some of which are geared toward beginners. Aside from its sandy bottom, entry to the water is very easy, making it a very safe area. It's located in a tourist area, and therefore has several nearby services, from schools to equipment rental businesses. To reach Flag Beach, take the FV-2 and FV-1 highways toward Corralejo. We recommend parking near the dunes.
This majestic, six-kilometer-long beach is sheltered by a mountainous cliff, home to the island's highest point, Peñas del Chache. The trade winds in the area make this spot a perfect place for surfing. It can be accessed through the village of Caleta Famara, where you can easily find parking.
Fun and exciting, that's how many describe surfing. A sport that can be practiced in the best possible conditions in both Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Do you dare?
