The 30 best Hotels that are pets friendly in Puerto del Rosario

About Puerto del Rosario

The most eastern of the Canary Islands. Fuerteventura is an island with vast prairies where reigns silence and tranquillity. The island is the perfect place to disconnect from everything and dive into a kind of almost dreamlike surreal environment with its stunning scenery, dunes and palm groves. Fuerteventura is the turquoise of its waters, the white of the sand and the ochre colour of the interior.

Moving around

The regular lines of guaguas (the way the local call the buses) will allow you to travel between the different municipalities of the island. There's also the option of renting a car to move around more freely: you can even bring your car on the ferry. Fuerteventura's airport is located in El Matorral, 5 km from Puerto del Rosario, the capital of the island. It is connected to the rest of the island by bus.

Out & About

Puerto del Rosario is the capital of Fuerteventura. It spreads out around a busy commercial port whose main business is freight traffic. The port is currently expanding and a marina is being built. This city is not very touristy, so it's the place to see how locals people live.
Walking around town you will find many sculptures: this is due to the International Sculpture Symposium, an annual event established in 2001, which is held every autumn in the seafront of Puerto del Rosario in which concur artists from around the world.
In Fuerteventura, the star of the island is the spectacular natural environment. The dunes of Corralejo, north of the island, are miles and miles of sand contrasting with the deep blue sea and sky. In the island called Isla de Lobos only lives the lighthouse keeper and it's the perfect place for diving. This island is separated from the town of Corralejo by a narrow inlet of sea. Here you will find beautiful white sandy beaches where you can practice all kinds of water sports.
In the south of the island there is Jandía that hosts most of the island's hotels. Its beaches are almost untouched. In Sotavento, Barlovento and WIN Cofete you will be just you and nature.
In the villages of La Antigua, Tuineje or Betancuria you can admire castles and towers, remains of the ancient inhabitants of the island. The volcano Tindaya is also an interesting place to visit because it is one of the most characteristic areas of the island. Morro Jable is a southern fishing village where you can enjoy fishing and other water sports.
