The beach was anything but idyllic. It was unspoilt, sure, but the sea was too rough for swimming. There was a nice walk around the cliffs, but it was a bit too much trouble for a dip in the sea. All in all, it was a pretty average experience.

This place quickly became my go-to spot on the island! The stunning black sand and powerful waves were an awe-inspiring sight. You could easily spend the whole day there, and the restaurants offer excellent food that caters to tourists.

Playa de Ajui is a perfect spot to take a break and chill out. The view is incredible and the perfect place to take a dip before heading to Ajuy's caves. It's a hot spot for relaxation and the scenery is simply stunning.

The beach at Fuerteventura is a sight to behold. Its huge waves, black sand, and rugged cliffs create a wild and unique landscape that simply must be experienced. It's an amazing place, but be warned: the waves can be quite dangerous.

A stunning vista to witness the sun's descent. Black volcanic sand and caverns close by. Fuerteventura simply has to be visited for this incredible experience.
