Wind & Waves: Kitesurfing Paradise in Corralejo

Kitesurfing in Fuerteventura

Corralejo is one of the world’s premier kitesurfing destinations, where consistent Atlantic trade winds, volcanic landscapes and perfect wave conditions create an unbeatable playground for riders of all levels.


Best Spots

Flag Beach
The reference spot for kitesurfing in the north. Wide golden sands, crystal-clear water and constant winds make it ideal for all levels. From here, the nearby Isla de Lobos is even accessible by kite.

Entubadera Beach
Located within the Corralejo Dunes Natural Park, just after Flag Beach. Similar conditions to Flag, but with better waves โ€” best suited to intermediate and advanced riders.

El Burro Beach
Around 4 kilometres past Flag Beach, El Burro offers two distinct spots: a wave kite area for advanced riders, and Glass Beach โ€” a flat to choppy water zone suitable for less experienced kiters.

El Cotillo
A popular spot with beautiful panoramic views and favourable winds. The beach is divided into zones for different skill levels, with schools and equipment hire available nearby.

Majanicho Beach
A quieter, more remote option north of Corralejo. Ideal for experienced kiters seeking space, freedom and unspoiled surroundings. No facilities or schools on site.

Piedra Playa
A challenging spot on the west coast with big waves and strong winds. Recommended for experienced riders only. No schools or facilities available.
