Fuerteventura, the wild island

We start on Christmas day leaving behind the cold in Milan and landed after 4 hours of flight and two waiting to Madrid, Puerto del Rosario (the only direct flight is if you travel with a package). A quarter of an hour taxi and we Castillo Beach Club, a residence situated in Caleta de Fuste.Il sun comes and goes but the temperature is high. There systemic assegnataci in the beautiful house and then ... on ... to discover the one week we luogo.In 1000 km. chartered by car, spending only 50 euros because the gas is very low and the roads are excellent. We see beautiful white beaches that stretch to view the eye, where there is almost none, only scoiattolini, dunes as if we were in the desert villages white with black beaches, salt marshes, botanical garden and windmills, in short, every day, a surprise, but the sea and the beaches, those are dream:
Corralejo, Morro Jable, The Cotillo, Aiuj, Tuineje, Pozo Negro and Las Playtas, Costa Calma and Jandia, it is a shame having to start again, but definitely come back.
Unico neo: the wind that always blows, from morning to evening, sometimes very strong, so that a jacket should not miss in a suitcase. This is a paradise for surfers and there are various schools of surf. E 'whole island to see and taste especially if you love nature and tranquility (naturism is allowed anywhere without problems); few entertainment, only many restaurants and bars.
