Travelling Fuerteventura

Traveling Fuerteventura, you discover primarily barren and dry land, but still, there is a lot going on. The goats, for example, roam many parts of the island and provide milk for one of the culinary specialties here, goat cheese. Also, there are beautiful old windmills to find, and if you dig more deeply, nature becomes more and more diverse, with sandy beaches and more mountainous regions. It’s worth it to travel to the inner part of Fuerteventura as well, as enchanting as the coast often is.

Views on the Promenade of Nice

The Promenade d’Anglais in the French city of Nice is one of the oldest urban beachfronts in the world. In English, the name translates to Promenade of the English because at the beginning of the early 1800s, primarily British noblemen and aristocrats came here to spend their winter vacations in the warmth of the Mediterranean. Later, the first hotels were built at the sea, and a walkway at the coast came into being. The pictures were shot in February 2019.

Island of Strong Winds

The island of Fuerteventura is well known for the strong winds hitting it frequently and making for solid waves. These circumstances were not very favorable to seafarers but are very welcome today to many birds living on the island and to the surfers visiting it for the waves. In fact, the name of the land itself, Fuerteventura, points to this natural phenomenon as it means nothing else than solid wind.

Dusts of Fuerteventura

Ashore of the Sahara in the Atlantic Ocean, there is a group of islands called the Canaries. They belong to Spain and are renowned for their mild weather and beautiful nature. One of these islands is called Fuerteventura. Due to its proximity to Africa and the Sahara, the weather here is quite dry; it rarely rains, and the landscape is shaped to a large degree by dunes and deserts. Often, dust sweeps across the island and makes for exciting moods.
