Fuerteventura is, without a doubt, the beach paradise of Europe.

The best way to explore them is with a rental car from Ecocar Fuerteventura, which gives you the freedom to move at your own pace, discover hidden gems and reach remote beaches that public transport simply cannot access.
Cofete: The wild beach that you should visit Getting to Cofete without your own car is practically impossible. This 14 kilometer virgin beach is hidden behind the Jandía massif and can only be accessed by a dirt road that requires a reliable vehicle. With Ecocar Fuerteventura, you will have a car in perfect condition to take on this unique trip. The reward: a lunar landscape of dunes, cliffs and Atlantic whitewater that will leave you speechless.
Sotavento: A paradise for windsurfers Sotavento beach, in the south of the island, hosts the famous World Windsurfing Championship every year. Its turquoise waters and constant trade winds make it irresistible. With a rental car, you can arrive in just 20 minutes from the airport and park comfortably near the beach. Ideal for families, couples and lovers of water sports.
Great Beaches of Corralejo: Dunes and Blue Sea In the north of the island, the Corralejo Natural Park has white sand dunes that merge with the Atlantic in turquoise and intense blue tones. The beaches of Corralejo are perfect for snorkeling, diving and taking long walks. Rent your car with Ecocar, pick it up at the airport or at our offices and reach this spectacular landscape in less than 40 minutes.
El Cotillo: The Best Kept Secret of the North The natural lagoons of El Cotillo are a unique spectacle. The volcanic rocks form natural pools with crystal-clear waters, perfect for swimming with children. The charming fishing village has an authentic atmosphere with fresh fish restaurants.
