Surf Fuerteventura

My time surfing  in Fuerteventura by Rodrigo.

 

October holidays were full of good waves and nice sunny weather in Fuerteventura, Canary Islands. We spent a week on vacation there, where we had surfing lessons every morning, then the afternoon spending our free time in and around the calm and pleasant town of Fuerteventura. During the trip we also enjoyed the really great and delicious Spanish food, such as Spanish tortilla and paella. The weather was amazing, with lots of sunny days with the sweet and salty taste of the sea in the air. With our wetsuits on and our feet full of sand, we had challenging yet enjoyable surfing lessons every morning in a tranquil place where the waves were perfect for beginners. 

We had an enjoyable day out to another Island called Lanzarote, where there are a lot of volcanoes and geysers; we got to see them up close and learn many facts about them. Also in Lanzarote, we had the opportunity to go an Aloe Vera museum where they taught us to appreciate the uses and applications of applying Aloe Vera for skin and health purposes. We were exhausted after the trip, so when we came back we had free time to rest and to get ready for dinner in the hotel.

On the last day, we decided not to surf but instead relax on an amazing private beach, where we brought a cook to prepare an amazing paella that we all enjoyed very much. We all relax in the sand and with much to talk about, we sat there watching the sea and chatting. When the sun started to set we repositioned ourselves so we could see it perfectly and played music to set the perfect mood. It was a really busy and amazing day for us in Fuerteventura.
